The Journal of Neuropsychology publishes original contributions to scientific knowledge in neuropsychology. Topics reflect the multidisciplinary character of the field and include clinical and research studies with neurological, psychiatric, and psychological patient populations in all age groups using different methodologies including single-case and group studies, pharmacology, neurophysiology and (functional) neuroimaging.
The following types of paper are invited:
- papers reporting original empirical investigations;
- theoretical papers; provided that these are sufficiently related to empirical data;
- review articles, which need not be exhaustive, but which should give an interpretation of the state of research in a given field and, where appropriate, identify its clinical implications;
- brief reports and comments;
- case reports;
- fast-track papers (included in the issue following acceptation);
- reaction and rebuttals (short reactions to publications in JNP followed by an invited rebuttal of the original authors);
- special issues.
The Journal of Neuropsychology is committed to a fast and efficient turnaround of papers, aiming to complete the review process in under two months.
