Human Nature

An Interdisciplinary Biosocial Perspective

Publishing model:
Hybrid

Overview

Human Nature is dedicated to advancing the interdisciplinary investigation of the biological, social, and environmental factors that underlie human behavior.

It focuses primarily on the functional unity in which these factors are continuously and mutually interactive. These include the evolutionary, biological, and sociological processes as they interact with human social behavior; the biological and demographic consequences of human history; the cross-cultural, cross-species, and historical perspectives on human behavior; and the relevance of a biosocial perspective to scientific, social, and policy issues.

  • Announcing Human Nature's Expansion

    Human Nature is very pleased to announce a new era in the journal’s history! We are being joined by many of the team from the journal Adaptive Human Behavior and Physiology, which will cease publishing at the end of this year. David Puts (longtime Associate Editor for AHBP) has joined HN as Senior Editor, where he will work closely with Louis Alvarado, HN’s Editor-in-Chief. David brings new Associate Editors Khandis Blake, Martie Haselton, and Jim Roney with him from AHBP. Many of the editorial board members from AHBP have also accepted Louis and David’s invitation to join the editorial board at HN. In addition, we are pleased to welcome Kevin (Ze) Hong and Kristin Snopkowski – faithful HN contributors themselves – to their new roles as Associate Editors working with Khandis, Martie, and Jim to support Louis and David.
