期刊介绍英文:
Evolutionary Behavioral Sciences (EBS) publishes manuscripts that advance the study of human behavior from an evolutionary perspective, with an emphasis on work that integrates evolutionary theory with other approaches and perspectives from across the behavioral sciences, including the range of subdisciplines within psychology as well as the social sciences (e.g., sociology, political science, criminology) and humanities (e.g., history, literature studies). This includes a special interest in work that explores: The role of evolved mechanisms in real-world phenomena, especially when the findings hold implications for policy or practice;The expression of evolved cognitive, behavioral, and physiological mechanisms across contexts and the consequences they have for the patterns and structure of society;The interplay between evolved psychological mechanisms and cultural influences in driving behavior, including papers that test established theory in new cultural contexts. EBS publishes both empirical and theoretical manuscripts and welcomes quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method approaches. EBS will consider research on non-human animals provided it offers some insight on a current question in the study of human behavior. The journal is also interested in articles that seek to translate evolutionary reasoning into implications for policy and practice.
