Behavioural Pharmacology

Journal Title：Behavioural Pharmacology

Behavioural Pharmacology accepts original full and short research reports in diverse areas ranging from ethopharmacology to the pharmacology of schedule-controlled operant behaviour, provided that their primary focus is behavioural. Suitable topics include drug, chemical and hormonal effects on behaviour, the neurochemical mechanisms under-lying behaviour, and behavioural methods for the study of drug action. Both animal and human studies are welcome; however, studies reporting neurochemical data should have a predominantly behavioural focus, and human studies should not consist exclusively of clinical trials or case reports. Preference is given to studies that demonstrate and develop the potential of behavioural methods, and to papers reporting findings of direct relevance to clinical problems. Papers making a significant theoretical contribution are particularly welcome and, where possible and merited, space is made available for authors to explore fully the theoretical implications of their findings. Reviews of an area of the literature or at an appropriate stage in the development of an author’s own work are welcome. Commentaries in areas of current interest are also considered for publication, as are Reviews and Commentaries in areas outside behavioural pharmacology, but of importance and interest to behavioural pharmacologists. Behavioural Pharmacology publishes frequent Special Issues on current hot topics. The editors welcome correspondence about whether a paper in preparation might be suitable for inclusion in a Special Issue.

行为药理学接受从行为药理学到日程控制操作行为的药理学等各个领域的完整和简短的原创研究报告，前提是它们的主要关注点是行为。合适的主题包括药物、化学和激素对行为的影响、行为背后的神经化学机制以及研究药物作用的行为方法。欢迎动物和人类研究；然而，报告神经化学数据的研究应主要关注行为，而人体研究不应仅包括临床试验或病例报告。优先考虑证明和发展行为方法潜力的研究，以及报告与临床问题直接相关的发现的论文。特别欢迎做出重大理论贡献的论文，并且在可能和值得的情况下，为作者提供空间以充分探索其发现的理论含义。欢迎对文学领域的评论或在作者自己作品发展的适当阶段进行评论。当前感兴趣领域的评论也被考虑出版，行为药理学以外领域的评论和评论也是如此，但对行为药理学家来说很重要和感兴趣。行为药理学经常发布有关当前热门话题的特刊。编辑们欢迎就正在准备的论文是否适合纳入特刊的来信来函。
