Mind, Brain, and Education

Mind, Brain, and Education (MBE) publishes peer-reviewed articles addressing biological, brain, cognitive and behavioral questions that are relevant to the broad field of education. The journal operates through an open submission process. In addition, researchers are encouraged to contact the editorial board with ideas for reviews, commentaries and special issues. Short and full-length empirical reports, reviews and commentaries on specific topics broadly relevant to MBE readership, including to practitioners, will be considered. MBE has an editorial board of internationally recognized scholars and practitioners from a variety of disciplines. MBE provides a forum for highest quality presentation of basic and applied research on learning and development across the ages, in typically developing and special needs populations, including analyses of biology, neuroscience, cognitive and social-emotional sciences, and education. Research in mind, brain, and education emphasizes the reciprocal relationship in which education informs biological and behavioral and cognitive research as much as these inform educational research and practice. MBE original research articles report novel discoveries from laboratory-based experiments or research in the settings of practice. MBE articles also may consider the biological, cultural and intergenerational factors that influence life-long learning and plasticity. MBE strives to be a highly respected resource for reporting basic and translational data that provide a framework for developing a critical understanding of advancing educational practices and curricula. The journal is thus a venue for scientifically reliable, educationally relevant research that connects mind, brain and education, catalyzing the kinds of research across disciplines that are essential to promote research-based practices in education.

SJR

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.
