Manuscript Submission

Cognitive, Affective, & Behavioral Neuroscience publishes review and primary research articles concerned with behavior and brain processes in humans, both normal participants and patients with brain injury. In addition, articles that use animal models to address cognitive or affective processes involving behavioral, invasive, or imaging methods are also strongly encouraged. Articles will be appropriate to the journal if they cover topics relating to cognition such as perception, attention, memory, language, problem-solving, and reasoning or topics concerning emotional processes and affective states such as fear, anxiety, anger, and surprise. In all cases, the editors will give highest priority to papers that report a combination of behavioral and neuroscientific methods to address these research topics; we also invite synthetic papers that make use of computational and other approaches to modeling.

Primary research articles should be limited to approximately 10,000 words, and review articles should be limited to 15,000 words (in each case, plus figures and tables). Consult the Guidelines for Authors for details.

This journal is published by the Psychonomic Society under the direction of its Publications Committee (Chair, 2008: Mary A. Peterson).

Copyright and Permission: Authors must secure from both the Psychonomic Society and the author of reproduced material written permission to quote text of more than 500 words or to reproduce two or more tables or figures from any article published in this journal, except for the few that are in the public domain. The Psychonomic Society normally grants permission contingent upon the author's permission, a complete citation of source, and payment of a $10 fee per article from which material is taken. The fee only is waived for authors who wish to use their own material commercially.

Permission from the Society is waived for authors who wish to reproduce a single table or figure, provided the author's permission is obtained and full credit is given to the Psychonomic Society and the author through a complete citation. (If written permission is requested for commercial use of a single table or figure, the $10 fee will be assessed.) Permission and fees are waived for authors who wish to reproduce their own material for personal use, and for others to make single or multiple copies of single articles for personal, noncommercial scholarly, or nonprofit, educational classroom use. Extensive use of copy privileges in such a way as to substitute for a subscription to this journal is not intended or permitted.
