Hormones and Behavior

Official Journal of the Society for Behavioral Neuroendocrinology

Hormones and Behavior publishes original research articles, reviews, commentaries, perspectives and special issues concerning hormone-brain-behavior relationships, broadly defined. The journal welcomes studies conducted on species ranging from invertebrates to mammals, including studies of humans. Also included is work addressing neuroendocrine-behavior relationships, neuroendocrine and endocrine mechanisms controlling the development or adult expression of behavior as well as studies of the environmental control and evolutionary significance of hormone-brain-behavior relationships. Studies with an emphasis on molecular, neuroanatomical, or non-neural systems are also welcome when relevant to endocrine signaling and behavior.

The journal's scope ranges from laboratory and field studies concerning neuroendocrine as well as endocrine mechanisms controlling the development or adult expression of behavior to studies concerning the environmental control and evolutionary significance of hormone-behavior relationships.
