Aims & Scope

About the Journal Aim and Scope The BJMB accepts original contributions pertaining to the multidisciplinary study of human movement throughout the lifespan, involving a broad range of topics related to the field of Motor Behavior like motor control, development and learning, movement disorders, clinical, theoretical and model studies. These articles could come from diverse disciplines such as kinesiology, biomechanics, neurophysiology, neuroscience, psychology, medicine, sports performance, and rehabilitation. Please note that this journal only publishes manuscripts in English. The following types of manuscripts will be considered for publication: research articles, s ystematic review and meta-analysis articles , m ini-review articles , s coping review articles , r esearch notes , c urrent o pinion, c ritiques articles, t utorials articles, infographic articles and study protocol articles . Research articles : Original manuscripts presenting new information that contributes to the scientific fields covered in the BJMB with methods and results presented systematically. Systematic review and meta-analysis articles: Reviews should be an up-to-date synthesis of well-established topics including a critical analysis of the literature used and its idiosyncratic conclusions. Mini-review articles: Mini-reviews should cover an important topic in motor behavior, in a way that will inform readers, including readers not familiar with the topic. Mini-reviews are meant to be short, punchy, and interesting. Scoping review articles: Researchers may conduct scoping reviews instead of systematic reviews where the purpose of the review is to identify knowledge gaps, scope a body of literature, clarify concepts or investigate research conduct. Research notes: Short and insightful communications of studies systematically performed presenting exciting new findings. Research notes may represent either a final report on definitive studies which do not require a larger space for complete doc
