《实验性精神病理学杂志》是一本电子期刊，旨在发表对精神病理学一般领域科学知识的前沿原创贡献。尽管将重点放在采用实验方法来描述和理解精神病理学的出版研究，但该期刊也欢迎使用其他经验方法（如相关设计，荟萃分析，流行病学和前瞻性方法）对知识作出重大贡献的提交材料。和单案实验。理论和评论文章也涉及精神病理学的描述，病因和治疗中的重要问题。有助于了解大多数精神病理学领域的文章将被考虑出版，包括基于焦虑的问题，抑郁和情绪障碍，精神分裂症和精神病症状，药物滥用和依赖，饮食失调，性和性别认同问题，人格障碍，躯体形式障碍，分离经历，神经障碍，儿童心理问题，学习，智力和发育障碍。已发表研究的参与者可能包括诊断为精神健康问题的个体，非临床人群，人类模拟人群或非人类动物。在传统的实验性精神病理学精神中，特别欢迎来自非临床人群的研究，这些研究有助于理解精神病理学的病因学。虽然该期刊的重点主要是与精神病理学相关的心理和认知过程，但也将考虑研究精神病理学的生物学基础的贡献。

The Journal of Experimental Psychopathology is an e-journal created to publish cutting-edge original contributions to scientific knowledge in the general area of psychopathology. Although there will be an emphasis on publishing research which has adopted an experimental approach to describing and understanding psychopathology, the journal will also welcome submissions that make significant contributions to knowledge using other empirical methods such as correlational designs, meta-analyses, epidemiological and prospective approaches, and single-case experiments. Theoretical and review articles addressing significant issues in the description, aetiology, and treatment of psychopathologies are also welcome.Articles contributing to knowledge of most areas of psychopathology will be considered for publication, including anxiety-based problems, depression and mood disorders, schizophrenia and psychotic symptoms, substance abuse and dependency, eating disorders, sexual and gender identity problems, personality disorders, somatoform disorders, dissociative experiences, neurological disorders, childhood psychological problems, and learning, intellectual and developmental disabilities. Participants in published studies may include individuals with diagnosed mental health problems, non-clinical human populations, human analogue populations, or nonhuman animals. In the traditional spirit of experimental psychopathology, submissions from studies on non-clinical populations that make a contribution to understanding the aetiology of psychopathology will be especially welcomed. While the journal''s focus is primarily on the psychological and cognitive processes associated with psychopathology, contributions studying the biological substrates of psychopathology will also be considered.
