The journal investigates studies in Cognitive psychology, Neuroscience, Cognitive science, Cognition and Perception. The research on Cognitive psychology featured in Cognitive Neuroscience combines topics in other fields like Social psychology, Synesthesia, Communication, Stimulus (physiology) and Developmental psychology. Neuroscience studies presented include Prefrontal cortex, Electroencephalography, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Sensory system and Working memory.
The research on Cognitive science tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Consciousness and Cognitive neuroscience. The works on Consciousness deal in particular with Electromagnetic theories of consciousness. Social perception is the primary subject of Perception works presented in it.
The journal articles are mainly concerned with subjects like Cognitive psychology, Cognitive science, Cognition, Developmental psychology and Neuroscience. Issues in Cognitive psychology were discussed in the most cited articles, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Stimulus (physiology), Neuroimaging, Cognitive neuroscience and Self. The journal papers hold forums on Cognition that merge themes from other disciplines such as Coding (social sciences), Perception and Functional imaging.
The journal covers a variety of subjects, including Consciousness, Electromagnetic theories of consciousness, Cognitive psychology, Cognitive science and Neuroscience. Qualia studies in the realm of Consciousness interact with fields like Empirical data. It tackles studies in Set (psychology) and the interrelated subject of Unconscious mind to gain insights into Electromagnetic theories of consciousness.
Cognitive Neuroscience features studies on Cognitive psychology, including topics such as Similarity (psychology). The subject of Alpha (ethology), which is connected to the field of Encoding (memory), serves as the foundation of the Neuroscience research featured in Cognitive Neuroscience. It explores research in Posterior parietal cortex and overlapping concepts in Cognition to expand the discourse in Transcranial direct-current stimulation.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Cognitive Neuroscience (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Cognitive Neuroscience (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 19.44% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 27.59% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 10.34% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 13.79% of all publications and 48.28% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
In addition to the explorations of theoretical concepts and findings, it is also noteworthy to discuss how these research topics in cognitive neuroscience can be practically applied in various professions – one of which is the career of a speech-language pathologist. Speech pathologist requirements in Alaska, for instance, demand a comprehensive understanding of cognitive science principles. Speech-language pathologists often collaborate with cognitive neuroscientists to better understand the neural processes involved in human communication – particularly, the cognitive aspects that influence speech, language, and communication disorders. By understanding these processes, they can develop more effective strategies for diagnosing and treating individuals with these conditions. Cognitive neuroscience research also helps in illuminating the factors that might cause differences in communication abilities among individuals, creating the basis for personalized treatment programs. From aiding in the recovery process after stroke or brain injury, to assisting children with developmental disorders, the research in cognitive neuroscience can have a profound impact on the practice and outcomes in speech-language pathology. Hence, the interconnection between cognitive neuroscience and the field of speech-language pathology is a prime example of how laboratory findings in cognitive science can translate into real-world solutions, benefiting society at large. This underlines the importance of the research topics being explored within the journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, both for advancing scientific understanding and for their practical implications.
