Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Behavioral Sciences is a new, international, open-access and peer-reviewed Journal that publishes original research and scholarship contributing to our understanding of human behavior. The Journal seeks to publish original state-of-the-art research or scholarly papers and commentaries of general interest to behavioral scientists including researchers, sociologists, anthropologists, psychologists, psychiatrists and allied fields. Behavioral Sciences intends to inform and to stimulate interest and debate in advancing the scientific basis of the discipline.

In recognition of this new beginning Behavioral Sciences will publish a Features Paper Special Issue. The scope will fall within the range of the mission of the Journal and is not limited to any particular themes. The following general topics indicate the possible scope of this special issue but these are not intended to be all inclusive. They are cognitive, behavioral and social psychology; neurochemical, neuroanatomical and genetic contributions to behavior; animal models of behavior; stress; epidemiology; and the interface of behavioral sciences with clinical psychology and psychiatry.

Please contact the editor ([email protected]) or the editorial office ([email protected]) with any queries. The deadline for submission is November 30th 2011. We look forward with enthusiasm to hearing from you and thank you for supporting the Journal.

Prof. Dr. John Coverdale
