Journals

Launched in 2017, this journal publishes original research on human behaviour from across the social and biological sciences, including psychology, economics, neuroscience, sociology and anthropology. It serves as a high-profile interdisciplinary venue for work that would not sit comfortably within a single-discipline journal, applying the editorial standards associated with the broader Nature portfolio.

The flagship empirical journal of the Association for Psychological Science, covering research across all areas of scientific psychology with a preference for work that has broad theoretical implications rather than narrow applied interest. It has been at the centre of debates about replication and research methods in psychology, and has pushed for higher standards of statistical reporting, pre-registration and open data.

One of the core venues for research on the psychology of judgment and decision-making, publishing empirical and theoretical work on how people form beliefs, evaluate options and make choices under uncertainty and risk. It has been publishing since 1988 and draws contributions from psychology, economics and related fields, covering both laboratory experiments and applied research.

An open-access journal publishing empirical, theoretical and methodological work on the psychology of judgment, decision-making and related cognitive processes. It was long associated with the Society for Judgment and Decision Making and has since moved to Cambridge University Press, though open access has been a defining feature of the journal throughout its history.

Launched by Cambridge University Press in 2017, this journal focuses on the application of behavioural science to public policy, covering topics such as nudging, defaults, social norms and the design of public institutions. It publishes both original empirical research and more conceptual work on the ethical and political dimensions of behaviourally informed policy, with contributions from academics and practitioners.

A journal publishing research on the relationship between economic behaviour and the institutional, organisational and social structures within which it occurs, drawing on economics, economic history and other social sciences. It has been receptive to heterodox and interdisciplinary approaches and has published work associated with evolutionary economics, institutional economics and behavioural economics since 1980.

One of the flagship journals in the APA's Journal of Experimental Psychology family, publishing empirical studies considered to have broad significance across multiple areas of experimental psychology rather than within a single subspecialty. Papers tend to report substantial programmes of research and the journal has historically published some of the most-cited work in cognitive psychology and social cognition.

An international journal focused on the scientific study of the mind and its processes, covering perception, attention, memory, language, reasoning and decision-making from cognitive science and related perspectives. It is widely read across cognitive psychology, linguistics, cognitive neuroscience and philosophy of mind, and maintains a focus on both the computational and representational aspects of mental processes.
