Scope
Aims, scope and focus
The Cambridge Journal of Human Behaviour (CJHB) is an interdisciplinary, quarterly journal that enjoys undergraduate submissions from various anthropological, psychological, and biological approaches to human behaviour. CJHB hopes to provide a platform and opportunity for cross-fertilisation and interdisciplinarity in which the varying methodological frontiers of disciplines may converge, overlap, bisect, or even jar. Our focus is human behaviour, however that may be taken and engaged with. Our aim is to traverse the “two cultures” that are often imagined as having a “gulf of immutable comprehension” (Snow, 1965) between them; i.e., that of the social and natural sciences. Whilst we have decidedly delineated and recommended multiple disciplines to ground and analyse human behaviour, these heuristic distinctions—rather than empirical ones—should come to be understood as “utterly intertwined” (Sapolsky, 2018).
