The best “general” philosophy journals, 2015

We haven't done one of these surveys in a few years, so let's see what the mood of the profession is these days.  Here's the poll.  I tried to include all English-language journals that publish in at least a half-dozen different areas of philosophy (e.g., language, mind, ethics, logic, science, epistemology, metaphysics, history etc.).

UPDATE:  Readers have pointed out several journals wrongly omitted, including Philosophical Issues, Philosophia, dialectica, Metaphilosophy, Res Philosophica, and (a personal favorite of mine, so this is particularly embarrassing), Ergo.  I don't think anyone thinks these would have made "the top 10," but I'll run another poll with those outside the top ten from this current poll plus these others.
