情境行為科學雜志是情境行為科學協會(ACBS)的官方期刊。情境行為科學是一種系統的、實用的方法，用于理解行為，解決人類問題，促進人類的成長和發展。情境行為科學運用功能原理和理論來分析和修正其歷史和情境語境中的行為。其目標是預測和影響行為，精確，范圍和深度，跨越所有的行為領域和所有層次的分析，從而幫助創建一個行為科學，更適合人類條件的挑戰。情境行為科學是一種分析人類行為的戰略方法，它提出需要多層次(如社會因素、神經因素、行為因素)和多方法(如時間序列分析、橫斷面、實驗……)來探索與人類行為預測和影響相關的情境和可操作變量。該雜志認為，與上下文行為方法相關的論文包括:實證研究(不受課題限制，如臨床心理學、精神病理學、教育、組織心理學等)關于初步但有爭議的發現的簡短報告審查(系統審查和元分析是首選)和關于情境行為科學的概念性和哲學論文我們特別感興趣的是:論文強調研究與廣泛的人類問題相關的核心行為過程連接不同方法的論文(例如，連接行為方法和認知觀點;或神經認知心理學;或進化科學)從知情的角度挑戰情境行為科學方法的論文該雜志歡迎來自不同學術傳統的研究人員、實踐者和理論家所寫的論文。與眾不同的不是狹義的理論或一組應用方法，而是所采用的方法論、概念化或策略是否與上下文行為方法相關。

The Journal of Contextual Behavioral Science is the official journal of the Association for Contextual Behavioral Science (ACBS).Contextual Behavioral Science is a systematic and pragmatic approach to the understanding of behavior, the solution of human problems, and the promotion of human growth and development. Contextual Behavioral Science uses functional principles and theories to analyze and modify action embedded in its historical and situational context. The goal is to predict and influence behavior, with precision, scope, and depth, across all behavioral domains and all levels of analysis, so as to help create a behavioral science that is more adequate to the challenge of the human condition.Contextual behavioral science is a strategic approach to the analysis of human behavior that proposes the need for a multi-level (e.g. social factors, neurological factors, behavioral factors) and multi-method (e.g., time series analyses, cross-sectional, experimental…) exploration of contextual and manipulable variables relevant to the prediction and influence of human behavior.The journal considers papers relevant to a contextual behavioral approach including:Empirical studies (without topical restriction - e.g., clinical psychology, psychopathology, education, organizational psychology, etc.)Brief reports on preliminary, but provocative findingsReviews (systematic reviews and meta-analyses are preferred) andConceptual and philosophical papers on contextual behavioral scienceWe are particularly interested in:Papers emphasizing the study of core behavioral processes that are relevant to a broad range of human problemsPapers bridging different approaches (e.g., connecting behavioral approaches with cognitive views; or neurocognitive psychology; or evolutionary science)Papers that challenge a contextual behavioral science approach from an informed perspectiveThe journal welcomes papers written by researchers, practitioners, and theoreticians from different intellectual traditions. What is distinctive is not a narrowly defined theory or set of applied methods but whether the methodology, conceptualization, or strategy employed is relevant to a contextual behavioral approach.
