About the journal
The Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes publishes experimental and theoretical studies concerning all aspects of animal behavior processes. Studies of associative, nonassociative, cognitive, perceptual, and motivational processes are welcome. The journal emphasizes empirical reports but may include specialized reviews appropriate to the journal's content area. The journal also publishes brief communications, typically based on a single experiment that reports a significant new empirical or theoretical contribution, perhaps involving a novel technique or analytic approach. For further information on content, authors should refer to the editorial in the January 1993 (Vol. 19, No. 1, p. 3) issue of the journal.

Incoming Editor.
Authors who cannot submit their manuscripts electronically may submit paper copies in quadruplicate but should also send a simultaneous email to the Editor that lists on one page the title of the article, the author(s), and the abstract. In addition to addresses and phone numbers, authors should supply e-mail addresses and fax numbers, if available, for potential use by the editorial office and later by the production office.
Masked reviews are optional, and authors who wish masked reviews must specifically request them when submitting their manuscripts. Each copy of a manuscript to be subjected to masked review should include a separate title page with authors' names and affiliations, and these should not appear anywhere else on the manuscript. Footnotes that identify the authors should be typed on a separate page. It is the author's responsibility to see that the manuscript itself contains no clues to their identities.
Authors should prepare manuscripts according to the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th ed.). All manuscripts must include an abstract containing a maximum of 120 words typed on a separate page. Formatting instructions (all copy must be double-spaced) and instructions on preparing tables, figures, references, metrics, and abstracts appear in the Manual. Also, all manuscripts are copyedited for bias-free language (see chap. 2 of the Publication Manual). Original color figures can be printed in color at the editor's discretion and provided the author agrees to pay half of the associated production costs; an estimate of these costs is available from the APA production office on request.
Most of the articles published in the Journal are reports of substantial empirical and theoretical studies and focused reviews of topics germane to the study of animal behavior processes. The Journal also publishes Brief Communications, typically based on a single experiment that reports a significant new empirical or theoretical contribution, perhaps involving a novel technique or analytic approach. In preparing a Brief Communication, authors should set a limit of 60 characters and spaces per line and should not exceed 600 lines of text and references (exclusive of the title page, abstract, author note, footnotes, tables, and figures). There should be no more than two tables or figures. For information on the other JEP journals, authors should refer to editorials in those journals.
Authors are required to obtain and provide to APA all necessary permissions to reproduce any copyrighted work, including, for example, test instruments and other test materials or portions thereof.
APA policy prohibits an author from submitting the same manuscript for concurrent consideration by two or more publications. In addition, it is a violation of APA Ethical Principles to publish "as original data, data that have been previously published" (Standard 8.13). Because this journal is a primary journal that publishes original material only, APA policy prohibits as well publication of any manuscript that has already been published in whole or substantial part elsewhere. Authors have an obligation to consult journal editors concerning prior publication of any data upon which their article depends.
In addition, APA Ethical Principles specify that "after research results are published, psychologists do not withhold the data on which their conclusions are based from other competent professionals who seek to verify the substantive claims through reanalysis and who intend to use such data only for that purpose, provided that the confidentiality of the participants can be protected and unless legal rights concerning proprietary data preclude their release" (Standard 8.14). APA expects authors submitting to this journal to adhere to these standards. Specifically, authors of manuscripts submitted to APA journals are expected to have their data available throughout the editorial review process and for at least 5 years after the date of publication.
Authors will be required to state in writing that they have complied with APA ethical standards in the treatment of their sample, human or animal, or to describe the details of treatment. A copy of the APA Ethical Principles may be obtained electronically or by writing the APA Ethics Office, 750 First Street, NE, Washington, DC 20002-4242.
APA requires authors to reveal any possible conflict of interest in the conduct and reporting of research (e.g., financial interests in a test or procedure, funding by pharmaceutical companies for drug research).
For the other JEP journals, authors should submit manuscripts according to the manuscript submission guidelines for each individual journal:
When one of the editors believes a manuscript is clearly more appropriate for an alternative journal of the American Psychological Association, the editor may redirect the manuscript with the approval of the author.
