About the journal
Launched in January 2017, Nature Human Behaviour is an online-only monthly journal dedicated to the best research into human behaviour from across the social and natural sciences. All editorial decisions are made by a team of full-time professional editors.
Nature Human Behaviour is a subscription-based journal, with a self-archiving policy six months after online publication. Nature Human Behaviour does not offer open access licensing options for articles, although specific types of papers are occasionally made open access free of charge, owing to their exceptional value to the community. The application of an open access licence is at the discretion of the editors; full details of our policy can be found on our self archiving and license to publish page.
Aims & Scope
Drawing from a broad spectrum of social, biological, health, and physical science disciplines, Nature Human Behaviour publishes research of outstanding significance into any aspect of individual or collective human behaviour. How do humans perceive, think, feel, decide, and act? How do they interact with their environments and others? How do these abilities develop and decline over the lifespan? How do they evolve and compare with other species? How do they vary among individuals, groups, and cultures? How are they shaped by socioeconomic and political factors? How are they affected by disease or deprivation? What interventions can influence individual behaviours or outcomes? The journal welcomes research from any discipline that provides significant original insight into these questions.
Nature Human Behaviour features a broad range of topics, including (but not limited to) perception, action, memory, learning, reward, judgment, decision-making, language, communication, emotion, personality, social cognition, social behaviour, neuropsychiatric/neurodevelopmental/neurological disorders, economic & political behaviour, belief systems, social networks, social norms, social structures, behaviour change, collective cognition and behaviour, culture, public policy.
In addition to publishing original research, Nature Human Behaviour publishes Reviews, Perspectives, Comments, News, Features, and Correspondence from across the full range of disciplines concerned with human behaviour.
Ultimately, the journal’s mission is to strengthen the reach and impact of human behaviour research in directly addressing our most pressing social challenges.
Like all Nature-branded journals, Nature Human Behaviour is characterized by a dedicated team of professional editors, a fair and rigorous peer-review process, high standards of copy-editing and production, swift publication and editorial independence.
Disciplines covered in the journal include:

Editorial Board
Like the other Nature titles, Nature Human Behaviour has no external editorial board. Instead, all editorial decisions are made by a dedicated team of professional editors, with relevant research and editorial backgrounds.
Chief Editor: Stavroula Kousta
 Stavroula’s background spans the humanities, social sciences and biological sciences, and she feels strongly about the need for interaction and integration among disciplines. From 2008–2013 she was the Editor of Trends in Cognitive Sciences, during which time the journal evolved into one of the leading reviews outlets in the behavioural sciences. She then joined PLOS Biology, managing the journal’s magazine section and handling research manuscripts in neuroscience. Advocating for robust research practices, she also led the introduction of meta-research as a core discipline covered in PLOS Biology. Originally from Greece, Stavroula obtained a PhD in English and Applied Linguistics (psycholinguistics) from the University of Cambridge. She then spent four years doing post-doctoral research on the psychological and neural underpinnings of language and semantic knowledge at University College London.

Senior Editor: Jamie Horder
 Jamie’s background is in cognitive neuroscience. Before becoming an editor, Jamie completed a postdoc at King’s College London on the neuroscience of autism, and prior to that a PhD at Oxford studying depression. Jamie joined the Neuroscience & Psychology team of Nature Communications in October 2017, where he handled a broad range of manuscripts, including cognitive and systems neuroscience, psychiatry, cognitive and social psychology, and network science. He joined the team at Nature Human Behaviour in January 2019 and he is primarily responsible for social and affective neuroscience, psychiatry, and complex systems, but also work from allied fields, especially cognitive neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and computational sciences.

Senior Editor: Marike Schiffer
 Marike’s background is in cognitive neuroscience and cognitive psychology. Before moving to Nature Human Behaviour Marike worked as a Lecturer in Psychology at Brunel University London. Along the way, she has been picking up degrees and research experience at the Ruhr-University Bochum (BSc Psychology), University of Otago (Research), Maastricht University (MSc Neuropsychology), Max Planck Institute for Neurological Research (PhD research), Westfälische-Wilhelms Universität (Dr. rer nat.), and finally Oxford and the Université Paris Descartes (post-doc positions). Most of Marike’s research centred on the question how we learn to behave adaptively in our changeable environment. How do we manage to pay attention when we have to, integrate information when it’s useful, choose the right action to achieve our goals? And what makes us confident we know what to expect? She addressed this aspect of human behaviour combining neuroimaging to test theories of functional neuroanatomy and computational approaches such as reinforcement-learning and Bayesian agents.

Associate Editor: Aisha Bradshaw
 Aisha’s background is in political science, with an emphasis on international relations, conflict studies, and quantitative methodology. She was initially drawn to political science by the field’s strong interdisciplinary elements, and her interests remain broad. She began her studies with a B.A. in political science at the University of Chicago and completed her PhD at Ohio State University, where her research focused on the strategic provision of social services by violent groups. Additional research projects examined international alliance networks and causal inference methods for observational data.

Associate Editor: Charlotte Payne
 Charlotte’s background is in Anthropology, Public Health, Primatology and Zoology. Before joining Nature Human Behaviour in 2019 she conducted research on the implications of using insects as food for our health, food security, and environmental footprint. This was the focus of her PhD thesis in Zoology at the University of Cambridge, and she has conducted field-based research on this topic in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Japan, Zimbabwe, Mexico and Burkina Faso. Prior to this she assisted with health related research projects at the University of Oxford, where she worked with large scale epidemiological data and high-throughput genomic data. She spent time in Japan as a Daiwa scholar in 2009-2011 and as a MEXT research student in 2013-2015, and speaks fluent Japanese. She did her undergraduate degree in Archaeology and Anthropology at Cambridge in 2006-2009, where she conducted field- and zoo-based research on great ape behaviour, ecology and genetics. She has a broad range of interests and is passionate about the importance of meaningful, interdisciplinary and equitable research.

Consulting Editor: Briony Jain
 Briony completed her PhD with Monash University in Melbourne, Australia in 2018 before conducting post-doctoral research at Middlesex University in London. She has a multi-disciplinary background, predominantly in the social sciences, with research experience in the fields of gerontology and geriatric medicine, injury prevention, public heath, epidemiology, forensic medicine, criminology, social work and social policy. Briony joined Nature Aging's editorial team as an Associate Editor in May 2020 and is also acting as a Consulting Editor for Nature Human Behaviour.
