Brain and Cognition

期刊简介：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.

【译文】《大脑与认知》是一个神经科学与认知科学整合的平台。该期刊发表经过同行评审的研究文章、理论论文、案例史，探讨认知功能与大脑过程之间的重要理论问题，以及历史文章。重点在于严谨的实证或理论研究，并为我们对神经系统在认知中的作用的知识做出原创性贡献。涵盖范围包括但不限于记忆、学习、情感、感知、运动、音乐或实践与大脑结构或功能的关系。发表的文章通常将认知功能的一些方面与其实证基础联系起来，具有明确的理论意义，提出新的假设或反驳先前建立的假设。欢迎临床论文，如果它们提出具有理论重要性或关注的问题，并阐明大脑功能与认知功能之间的相互作用。我们欢迎综述文章，这些文章明确贡献了新的视角或整合，而不仅仅是总结该领域的文献；综述文章的作者应明确指出贡献所在。我们还欢迎关于认知与神经系统结构和功能之间关系的专题问题提案。此类提案可以直接提交给主编，由有兴趣担任此类汇编客座编辑的个人提出。
