About the journal

Adaptive Behavior

Animals, Animats, Software Agents, Robots, Adaptive Systems


Published in Association with International Society of Adaptive Behavior (ISAB)

Editor-in-Chief:
Peter M Todd Indiana University, USA

Description:

Relaunched in Volume 9 by SAGE Publications with a new editorial board, headed by Peter M. Todd of the Center for Adaptive Behavior and Cognition, Adaptive Behavior is the premier international journal for research on adaptive behaviour in animals and autonomous artificial systems. For over 10 years it has offered ethologists, psychologists, behavioural ecologists, computer scientists and robotics researchers a forum for discussing new findings and comparing insights and approaches across disciplines. The journal explores mechanisms, organizational principles, and architectures that can be expressed in computational, physical, or mathematical models.


Instructions to Authors
Manuscript Submission Guidelines:

Instructions to Contributors

To be published in Adaptive Behavior, an article should report substantive new results that significantly advance understanding of adaptive behavior in animals (including humans) or artificial systems. Critical reviews of existing work will also be considered. Contributions can originate from a range of disciplines, including psychology, biology, behavioral ecology, ethology, cognitive science, robotics, artificial intelligence, and others.

The ideal article will suggest implications for both natural and artificial systems. Authors should aim to make their methods, findings, and the significance of their results clear and understandable to the journal's multidisciplinary audience. Very general, speculative, or narrowly specialized papers, papers with substantially incomplete development, or papers irrelevant to the subject of adaptive behavior may be returned to authors without formal review.

Manuscripts for consideration should be submitted in PDF or Postscript format, following the guidelines below, by email attachment to the Editor-in-Chief at editor@adaptive-behavior.org with the paper title as subject. Please check that the PDF or Postscript file accurately reflects your texts and graphics.

Books for review may be sent to the Editor by post at:

Submitted Manuscripts

- Manuscripts must be in English, with American spelling preferred. Briefly define terms that may not be familiar to readers outside your specialty. Avoid jargon and nonstandard abbreviations. Use established technical terms before making up new ones.

- Authors should adhere to the following guidelines or papers may be returned for reformatting prior to review. Unless otherwise specified here, authors should adhere to the style described in the Fourth Edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association. This Manual is widely available in bookstores and libraries. It can also be ordered from the American Psychological Association: APA Order Department, PO Box 2710, Hyattsville, MD 20784.

- Manuscripts may be submitted in single-spaced one-column form (though accepted manuscripts must be double-spaced-see below.) Manuscripts should be formatted for 8.5 x 11-inch or A4 paper (one side only), with a minimum of 1 inch (2.5 cm) margins all around, in an 11-point font (e.g. Times Roman). Every page should be numbered on the upper right-hand corner starting with the title page. Manuscripts should not normally exceed the equivalent of 20 printed journal pages (about 25 single-spaced or 50 double-spaced manuscript pages).

The title page (page 1) should include:

- The paper's title (typically 12 words or less)

- A short running title (not more than 50 characters, including punctuation)

- The names and affiliations of the authors (e.g., William D. Hamilton, University of Oxford, Department of Zoology)

- The phone, fax, email, and mailing address of the author with whom the editor, publisher and readers should correspond

- The second page should contain an abstract of about 150 words or less, summarizing the main questions and results presented in the paper. This should be followed by a list of up to six key words.

- Begin the text of the article on page 3. Divide the text into short logical sections and subsections to aid the reader, and number them consecutively, e.g. 1, 1.1, 1.2, 2. Endnotes may be used sparingly. Follow the text with any endnotes and acknowledgements listed on separate pages.

- Begin the reference list on a new page following the acknowledgements page. References (not numbered) and citations, e.g. (Hamilton, 1963), must conform to the style in the Fourth Edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association. Carefully check all citations and references for correctness, completeness, and consistency. The names (last names and initials) of all authors must be given in the reference list. The last names of all authors must be mentioned in the first text citation; after that, the first author and "et al." may be used if there are three or more authors.

- Figures and tables can appear placed appropriately in the text in the submitted paper (but not in accepted manuscripts-see below). Number each table and figure using Arabic numerals. Include a brief title above each table. See the APA manual for specific details about typing tables. Each figure must have a caption. Figures should provide essential information, not merely illustrate the text. High-contrast black and white graphics and high-quality black and white photographs are both acceptable. Graphics and lettering should be clear and sharp enough to accommodate probable reduction for publication. Figures should be designed to be either 8 cm or 16 cm wide and no more than 22 cm tall.

- Color graphics can only be used on payment of a page fee for each printed page of color graphics. Computer graphics should be saved in TIFF (LZW compression enabled) or EPS format. Contact the publisher before submitting other formats. All graphics must have a minimum resolution of 300 dots per inch (118 dots per cm). Quality and the ability to reproduce the figures are the main considerations.

Accepted Manuscripts

At the time of acceptance, a complete hard copy of the paper must be mailed to the Editor at the address above, along with the following items for each author: a black and white head and shoulders photograph, a short introductory biography of 100 words or less, and the author's email and mailing addresses. Format for the accepted manuscript is the same as above, EXCEPT: Double space all materials including the reference list, and include tables, list of double-spaced figure captions, and full-sized figures (numbered, but without captions) each on a separate page at the end of the manuscript.

In addition, the entire manuscript must be emailed in electronic form (from which text can be readily extracted, so not PDF or PS) to the Editor. TeX, LaTeX, MS Word, and other Macintosh or Windows word-processing formats are acceptable. Please submit the paper as a single file, and check for the presence of viruses.

Authors will be required to assign copyright to the International Society for Adaptive Behavior.

Book Review Section

Anyone interested in reviewing a book or in suggesting a book for review should contact the Editor at the address above. Publishers are also invited to submit copies of relevant books.
