  • Behavioural Processes

    • ISSN: 0376-6357
    Behavioural Processes is dedicated to the publication of high-quality original research on animal behaviour from any theoretical perspective. It welcomes contributions that consider animal behaviour from behavioural analytic, cognitive, ethological, ecological and evolutionary points of view. This list is not intended to be exhaustive, and papers that integrate theory and methodology across disciplines are particularly welcome.The quality of research and focus on behavioural processes are the sole criteria for acceptance. Behavioural Processes considers both papers investigating basic behavioural phenomena and behavioural studies of more applied significance. Papers reporting solely on human behaviour may be considered for publication if they relate closely to non-human research within the journal's remit. Authors of papers reporting research on human subjects are invited to contact the editors for advice prior to submission, as they are for papers of all kinds.Behavioural Processes publishes three categories of paper. First, regular Research Papers presenting the results of original experiments or outlining novel theoretical positions. Second, Reviews which summarize the state of knowledge in an area of animal behavioural research. Third, Short Reports which are short communications reporting the outcome of a single experiment in no more than 2000 words and a total of two tables or figures.

  • Economic Modelling

    • ISSN: 0264-9993
    The International Journal of Theoretical and Applied Papers on Economic Modelling.Economic Modelling - a scholarly journal which came into being in 1984 - fills a major gap in the economics literature, providing a single source of both theoretical and applied papers on economic modelling. The journal's prime objective is to provide an international review of the state-of-the-art in economic modelling.Economic Modelling has historically published the complete versions of many large-scale macroeconomic models (for advanced and less developed countries and both closed and open economies) which have been developed for policy analysis. Examples are the Bank of England Model and the US Federal Reserve Board Model. As these models are updated and new models are developed, the journal continues to publish papers dealing with these revisions or new models, including structural macro-modeling in a VAR framework or in the latest DSGE settings.The journal currently publishes policy-relevant theoretical and applied papers in macroeconomics and other fields of economics, such as development economics, energy economics, environmental economics, financial economics, health economics, industrial economics, international economics, labor economics, microeconomics, public economics, and urban economics. The journal also welcomes cutting-edge empirical papers in heterodox economics.

It welcomes original empirical investigations focusing on development, intra and inter- individual differences, the science of learning and variability related to cultural and institutional contexts. Papers may reflect a variety of theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches examining any developmental phase from infants to adults and in diverse learning and instructional settings. Studies including laboratory experiments and field trials are welcome, including large-scale quantitative studies and qualitative case studies. Studies may contribute to general areas of learning and instruction or to specific domains, disciplines, or school subjects.

  • Journal of Strategy & Innovation

    • ISSN: 1047-8310
    Journal of Strategy & Innovation invites high-quality research that advances understanding of strategy, innovation, and organizational transformation in a rapidly changing world. We welcome submissions from a broad range of contexts, including private industry, public sector organizations, research and technology ecosystems, non-profits, and mission-driven societal initiatives. The journal is particularly interested in work that examines how strategic and innovation practices shape, and are shaped by, technological, economic, environmental, and societal change.We encourage conceptual, empirical, and interdisciplinary contributions that offer strong theoretical, methodological, or practical insights. Studies may focus on firm-level strategy and innovation, industry and ecosystem dynamics, or the wider policy, societal, and economic implications of technological development.Within this remit, the journal highlights four illustrative areas of interest that reflect our strategic identity and community. These areas are not restrictive, but serve as examples of topics we particularly welcome:Strategic Management in Technology-Intensive and Innovation-Driven ContextsIncluding forward-looking strategy, anticipation practices, strategic foresight, and research that bridges the gap between the strategic management community and future-oriented innovation scholarship.Impact Assessment in Firms, Innovation Systems, and Policy ContextsResearch developing or applying multi-criteria, qualitative, quantitative, or mixed-method approaches to assess the strategic, societal, environmental, or economic impacts of innovation — particularly when connected to strategic decision-making or governance.Intellect... Property, Intangible Assets, and Strategic AdvantageWork exploring how intellectual property, data assets, knowledge capital, and other intangibles contribute to competitive dynamics, strategic positioning, value creation, and organizational renewal.Deep-Tech Entrepreneurship and Emerging Technology VenturesIncluding venture creation, financing, scaling, governance, and commercialization pathways for science- and technology-based innovations.Beyond these areas, the journal remains open to diverse topics across strategy, innovation, and organization studies, including, but not limited to: innovation policy, societal and ethical implications of technology, sustainability and digital transformation, organizational renewal, collaboration and ecosystems, and new models of innovation.The Journal of Strategy & Innovation also welcomes high-quality literature reviews that help shape and advance scholarly debate. We particularly encourage reviews that go beyond synthesis by identifying emerging themes, offering fresh conceptual or methodological perspectives, and highlighting promising directions for future research where the journal seeks to foster discourse. Literature reviews that are mainly descriptive or do not open new pathways for meaningful academic debate are unlikely to be considered.The journal publishes two issues per year.

  • Computers in Human Behavior

    • ISSN: 0747-5632
    Computers in Human Behavior is a scholarly journal dedicated to examining the use of computers from a psychological perspective. Original theoretical works, research reports, literature reviews, software reviews, book reviews and announcements are published. The journal addresses both the use of computers in psychology, psychiatry and related disciplines as well as the psychological impact of computer use on individuals, groups and society. The former category includes articles exploring the use of computers for professional practice, training, research and theory development. The latter category includes articles dealing with the psychological effects of computers on phenomena such as human development, learning, cognition, personality, and social interactions. The journal addresses human interactions with computers, not computers per se. The computer is discussed only as a medium through which human behaviors are shaped and expressed. The primary message of most articles involves information about human behavior. Therefore, professionals with an interest in the psychological aspects of computer use, but with limited knowledge of computers, will find this journal of interest.
