This magazine is dedicated to building a language and cultural bridge between sociolinguistic research and English research communities in the Romance language world, particularly in Spain and Latin America. The magazine adopts a double-blind peer review system to ensure academic quality, with a review cycle of about five weeks, and accepts manuscripts written in English, Spanish, Galician, Portuguese or French, of which about 90% of the content is in English.

The research scope of Sociological Studies is extensive, covering multiple fields of sociolinguistics such as language style and domain, communicative context and speech events, politeness principles, bilingual dialogue and code switching, gender and discourse, language attitudes and ideology, global linguistic diversity, bilingual and multilingual phenomena, language and culture, language and identity, etc. In addition, it also welcomes contributions from related fields such as pragmatics, discourse analysis, conversation analysis, interactive linguistics, language acquisition and socialization, language anthropology, ethnic methodology, and communicative ethnography.
