Journal Title：Brain And Cognition

Brain and Cognition is a forum for the integration of the neurosciences and cognitive sciences. B&C publishes peer-reviewed research articles, theoretical papers, case histories that address important theoretical issues, and historical articles into the interaction between cognitive function and brain processes. The focus is on rigorous studies of an empirical or theoretical nature and which make an original contribution to our knowledge about the involvement of the nervous system in cognition. Coverage includes, but is not limited to memory, learning, emotion, perception, movement, music or praxis in relationship to brain structure or function. Published articles will typically address issues relating some aspect of cognitive function to its neurological substrates with clear theoretical import, formulating new hypotheses or refuting previously established hypotheses. Clinical papers are welcome if they raise issues of theoretical importance or concern and shed light on the interaction between brain function and cognitive function. We welcome review articles that clearly contribute a new perspective or integration, beyond summarizing the literature in the field; authors of review articles should make explicit where the contribution lies. We also welcome proposals for special issues on aspects of the relation between cognition and the structure and function of the nervous system. Such proposals can be made directly to the Editor-in-Chief from individuals interested in being guest editors for such collections.

《大腦與認知》是整合神經科學和認知科學的論壇。B&C 發表同行評審的研究文章、理論論文、解決重要理論問題的案例歷史以及關于認知功能和大腦過程之間相互作用的歷史文章。重點是嚴謹的經驗或理論研究，這些研究為我們關于神經系統在認知中的作用的知識做出了原創貢獻。報道范圍包括但不限于與大腦結構或功能相關的記憶、學習、情感、感知、運動、音樂或實踐。已發表的文章通常會解決將認知功能的某些方面與其神經基礎聯系起來的問題，具有明確的理論意義，提出新的假設或反駁先前建立的假設。如果臨床論文提出了具有理論重要性或令人擔憂的問題，并闡明了大腦功能和認知功能之間的相互作用，我們將受到歡迎。我們歡迎那些除了總結該領域的文獻之外，還明確貢獻了新觀點或整合的評論文章；評論文章的作者應該明確說明貢獻所在。我們也歡迎就認知與神經系統結構和功能之間的關系提出特別專題提案。有興趣擔任此類合集客座編輯的個人可以直接向主編提出此類提案。

Brain And Cognition創刊于1982年，由Academic Press Inc.出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋醫學 - 神經科學全領域，此刊是中等級別的SCI期刊，所以過審相對來講不是特別難，但是該刊專業認可度不錯，仍然是一本值得選擇的SCI期刊 。平均審稿速度 較慢,6-12周 約16.5周，影響因子指數2.2，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
