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.

行为药理学接受原创的完整和简短研究报告，研究领域涵盖从伦理药理学到计划控制操作行为的药理学等各个领域，前提是主要关注行为。合适的主题包括药物、化学物质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。动物和人类研究都欢迎提交；但是，报告神经化学数据的研究应主要关注行为，人类研究不应仅包含临床试验或病例报告。优先考虑展示和开发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，并在可能且值得的情况下，为作者提供空间来充分探索其发现的理论意义。欢迎对某一领域的文献或作者自己作品发展适当阶段的评论。当前关注领域的评论以及行为药理学之外但对行为药理学家来说很重要和感兴趣的评论和评论也会被考虑发表。《行为药理学》经常出版有关当前热门话题的特刊。编辑们欢迎来信询问正在准备的论文是否适合收录在特刊中。
