Schizophrenia Research: Cognition

Aims & Scope

Schizophrenia Research: Cognition is a companion title to the largest specialist journal in the field, Schizophrenia Research.

This international, peer-reviewed open access journal publishes articles on cognition in schizophrenia, broadly defined.

The journal publishes original articles, concise research reports, brief reports, letters to the editor, and review papers.

Submissions on all aspects of cognition in schizophrenia will be welcome, including clinical neuropsychology, neurocognition, social cognition, functional capacity, cognitive, affective, and social neuroscience, and aspects of everyday outcome as related to cognition.

Articles that compare the impact of cognition and other influences on outcome in schizophrenia will also be published.

Articles on descriptive characteristics, genetic influences, pharmacological and nonpharmacological treatments, and neuroimaging correlates of these aspects of cognition are welcomed.

The journal will also consider submissions aimed at cognition in conditions related to schizophrenia and will also consider articles on cognitive functioning as a marker of vulnerability in various potentially at-risk populations.

The journal is online-only and articles will be rapidly available after their acceptance.
