Journal of Contextual Behavioral Science

情境行为科学杂志是情境行为科学协会(ACBS)的官方期刊。情境行为科学是一种系统的、实用的方法，用于理解行为，解决人类问题，促进人类的成长和发展。情境行为科学运用功能原理和理论来分析和修正其历史和情境语境中的行为。其目标是预测和影响行为，精确，范围和深度，跨越所有的行为领域和所有层次的分析，从而帮助创建一个行为科学，更适合人类条件的挑战。情境行为科学是一种分析人类行为的战略方法，它提出需要多层次(如社会因素、神经因素、行为因素)和多方法(如时间序列分析、横断面、实验……)来探索与人类行为预测和影响相关的情境和可操作变量。该杂志认为，与上下文行为方法相关的论文包括:实证研究(不受课题限制，如临床心理学、精神病理学、教育、组织心理学等)关于初步但有争议的发现的简短报告审查(系统审查和元分析是首选)和关于情境行为科学的概念性和哲学论文我们特别感兴趣的是:论文强调研究与广泛的人类问题相关的核心行为过程连接不同方法的论文(例如，连接行为方法和认知观点;或神经认知心理学;或进化科学)从知情的角度挑战情境行为科学方法的论文该杂志欢迎来自不同学术传统的研究人员、实践者和理论家所写的论文。与众不同的不是狭义的理论或一组应用方法，而是所采用的方法论、概念化或策略是否与上下文行为方法相关。

The Journal of Contextual Behavioral Science is the official journal of the Association for Contextual Behavioral Science (ACBS).Contextual Behavioral Science is a systematic and pragmatic approach to the understanding of behavior, the solution of human problems, and the promotion of human growth and development. Contextual Behavioral Science uses functional principles and theories to analyze and modify action embedded in its historical and situational context. The goal is to predict and influence behavior, with precision, scope, and depth, across all behavioral domains and all levels of analysis, so as to help create a behavioral science that is more adequate to the challenge of the human condition.Contextual behavioral science is a strategic approach to the analysis of human behavior that proposes the need for a multi-level (e.g. social factors, neurological factors, behavioral factors) and multi-method (e.g., time series analyses, cross-sectional, experimental…) exploration of contextual and manipulable variables relevant to the prediction and influence of human behavior.The journal considers papers relevant to a contextual behavioral approach including:Empirical studies (without topical restriction - e.g., clinical psychology, psychopathology, education, organizational psychology, etc.)Brief reports on preliminary, but provocative findingsReviews (systematic reviews and meta-analyses are preferred) andConceptual and philosophical papers on contextual behavioral scienceWe are particularly interested in:Papers emphasizing the study of core behavioral processes that are relevant to a broad range of human problemsPapers bridging different approaches (e.g., connecting behavioral approaches with cognitive views; or neurocognitive psychology; or evolutionary science)Papers that challenge a contextual behavioral science approach from an informed perspectiveThe journal welcomes papers written by researchers, practitioners, and theoreticians from different intellectual traditions. What is distinctive is not a narrowly defined theory or set of applied methods but whether the methodology, conceptualization, or strategy employed is relevant to a contextual behavioral approach.
