Aims & Scope

The Social Security Bulletin is the quarterly research journal of the Social Security Administration.

It has a diverse readership of policymakers, government officials, academics, graduate and undergraduate students, business people, and other interested parties.

To promote the discussion of research questions and policy issues related to Social Security and the economic well being of the aged, the Bulletin welcomes submissions from researchers and analysts outside the agency for publication in its Perspectives section.

We are particularly interested in papers that: assess the Social Security retirement, survivors, and disability programs and the economic security of the aged; evaluate changing economic, demographic, health, and social factors affecting work/retirement decisions and retirement savings; consider the uncertainties that individuals and households face in preparing for and during retirement and the tools available to manage such uncertainties; and measure the changing characteristics and economic circumstances of SSI beneficiaries.
