2023 Impact Factor: 1,2
5 Year Impact Factor: 1,4
Behaviour publishes all aspects of behavior, spanning ecology, psychology, (neuro)physiology, learning, cognition, and emotion. We welcome contributions on all animal species, including humans, as well as studies on artificial forms of behavior (AI, robotics) and plant signaling behavior. Behaviour has a long tradition of publishing systematic observations of spontaneous behavior, but also welcomes submissions describing well-controlled laboratory experiments or computational models of behavior or its evolution.
Evolutionary approaches, which focus on potential fitness benefits of behavior or cognitive capacities for organisms, are emphasized both at a theoretical level and in relation to specific behaviors. We welcome research articles, reviews, commentary/reflection/opinion, and reports on anecdotes and interesting new hypotheses focusing on behavior. We encourage, and provide editorial support for, authors who collaborate to create a special Issue that brings together multiple perspectives around a common theme to stimulate new research directions in emerging subfields.
Behaviour was founded by Nobel Prize winner Niko Tinbergen together with W. H. Thorpe, in 1948. In his classic 1963 paper—dedicated to the 60th birthday of that other animal behavior Nobelist, Konrad Lorenz—Tinbergen proposed that questions relating to why an animal behaves in a particular way can be viewed through four lenses. At the proximate level, there is 1) the causation of behavior (internal physiological and anatomical mechanisms, external abiotic and biotic stimuli) underlying motivation, cognition, and emotions), and 2) the behavior's ontogeny, such as how it develops or is acquired, including gene by environment interactions that shape behavioral phenotypes. At the ultimate level, there is 3) the behavior's survival value (habitat selection, acquisition of food, avoiding predators, finding a mate, caring for offspring), and 4) its evolution and phylogeny. Behaviour seeks to cover all four lenses equally.
The study of behavior remains vibrant and increasingly diverse with contributions from talented scientists from multiple disciplines reporting their findings in Behaviour to a wide range of researchers.
The editorial board of Behaviour wishes to state unequivocally that it is not our policy to influence the Impact Factor in any way that could be regarded unethical.
