About Behavioral Sciences

Aims & Scope

Behavioral Sciences (ISSN 2076-328X) is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes original articles, critical reviews, research notes and short communications in the area of psychology, neuroscience, cognitive science, behavioral biology and behavioral genetics. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files or software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
