The objective of the journal is to combine knowledge in the areas of Developmental psychology, Cognitive psychology, Stimulus (physiology), Classical conditioning and Communication. In the journal, Memoria, Reinforcement and Research methodology are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Developmental psychology research. The featured works in Discrimination learning, which all belong in the domain if Cognitive psychology, also overlaps with concepts under Animal behavior.
The journal focuses on Discrimination learning research which is adjacent to topics in Visual perception. Stimulus control is a major topic of Stimulus (physiology) research presented in Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes. While Classical conditioning is the focus of Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, it also provided insights into the studies of Extinction (psychology) and Neuroscience.
The study on Neuroscience presented in Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes intersects with subjects under the field of Conditioned Suppression. Latent inhibition is part of Conditioning studies tackled in it. The Measures of conditioned emotional response study featured in Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes draws parallels with the field of Neutral stimulus.
The published articles aim to foster the development of research in Classical conditioning, Developmental psychology, Cognitive psychology, Conditioning and Stimulus (physiology). The journal publications facilitate discussions on Classical conditioning that incorporate concepts from other fields like Extinction (psychology), Neuroscience and Reinforcement. The published papers address concerns in Stimulus (physiology) which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Discrimination learning, Visual perception and Communication.
The journal explores disciplines such as Cognitive psychology, Stimulus (physiology), Communication, Social psychology and Associative learning. Cognitive psychology research presented in the journal encompasses a variety of subjects, including Interference theory and Task demand, Cognition. Topics in Stimulus (physiology) were tackled in line with various other fields like Change blindness and Classical conditioning, Latent inhibition.
The journal explores issues in Classical conditioning which can be linked to other research areas like Developmental psychology, Weibull distribution, Neuroscience and Exponential distribution. The close relationship between Conditioning and Analysis of variance and Generalization (learning) is one of the points of interest dissected in Developmental psychology research. It facilitates discussions in Reinforcement as part of the larger field of Social psychology, however, it also tackles fields such as Association (psychology).
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 Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes (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 Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes (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 2013 edition, 7.69% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 41.67% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 8.33% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 19.44% of all publications and 30.56% 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.
While this journal focuses largely on Developmental and Cognitive Psychology, it is worth noting that the methods and approaches used in these studies have wide applications in other fields. One such field is Forensic Science, where psychological research plays a significant contribution to the investigative process. Forensic scientists often incorporate principles of cognitive and developmental psychology, stimulus control, and classical conditioning in their investigations, among others. For those interested in exploring this career path, getting involved in research projects that are presented in this journal would serve as a great foundation. For those especially based in North Dakota, we recommend this comprehensive guide on how to be a forensic scientist in North Dakota, which offers information about the academic qualifications, skills, and experiences needed to succeed in this field. Embarking on a career as a forensic scientist allows one to contribute vital insights not just in the realm of criminal justice, but also to the advancement of psychological studies and research.

(2020)Pursuing a degree in psychology opens doors to diverse career opportunities, many of which can be accessed through flexible online programs. For those interested in the intersection of law and mental health, a forensic psychology degree offers specialized knowledge in criminal behavior and legal processes.
Working with younger populations is another rewarding path. An online masters child psychology program provides focused training on developmental issues and therapeutic techniques for children and adolescents.
Counseling remains a vital part of mental health services. Many students seek the cheapest masters in counseling to gain practical skills and licensure eligibility without a high financial burden.
For those aiming for clinical practice or research, online clinical psychology programs combine rigorous coursework with hands-on experience, preparing graduates for licensure and diverse clinical roles.
