ENVIRONMENT & BEHAVIOR is an interdisciplinary journal designed to report rigorous experimental and theoretical work focusing on mutual influences between the physical environment and human behavior at the individual, group, and institutional levels.

Articles are sought in the following areas:

1. Theoretical work on the interrelationships between human environments and behavioral systems. Methodological papers will be considered, provided the primary focus concerns the environment-behavior relationship.
2. Reports on research relating to evaluation of environments designed to accomplish specific objectives—e.g., the social effects of different kinds of living accommodations or the effectiveness of hospital treatment areas.
3. Studies relating to the beliefs, meanings, values, and attitudes of individuals or groups concerning various environments—e.g., the meanings and values attached to neighborhoods, cities, transport routes and devices, or recreational areas. These studies are especially welcomed if they have behavioral data as well.
4. Studies concerning physical environments whose human mission is largely implicit or socially underdeveloped.
5. Studies of planning, policy, or political action aimed at controlling or changing environments or behavior.
