Journal Title：Psychopathology

'Psychopathology' is a record of research centered on findings, concepts, and diagnostic categories of phenomenological, experimental and clinical psychopathology. Studies published are designed to improve and deepen the knowledge and understanding of the pathogenesis and nature of psychopathological symptoms and psychological dysfunctions. Furthermore, the validity of concepts applied in the neurosciences of mental functions are evaluated in order to closely bring together the mind and the brain. Major topics of the journal are trajectories between biological processes and psychological dysfunction that can help us better understand a subject’s inner experiences and interpersonal behavior. Descriptive psychopathology, experimental psychopathology and neuropsychology, developmental psychopathology, transcultural psychiatry as well as philosophy-based phenomenology contribute to this field.

“精神病理學”是一本以現象學、實驗和臨床精神病理學的發現、概念和診斷類別為中心的研究記錄。發表的研究旨在提高和深化對精神病理學癥狀和心理功能障礙的發病機制和性質的認識和理解。此外，還評估了應用于心理功能神經科學的概念的有效性，以便將思維和大腦緊密結合起來。該期刊的主要主題是生物過程和心理功能障礙之間的軌跡，這可以幫助我們更好地理解受試者的內心體驗和人際行為。描述性精神病理學、實驗性精神病理學和神經心理學、發展性精神病理學、跨文化精神病學以及基于哲學的現象學都為這一領域做出了貢獻。
