Aims and scope

The Journal of Technology in Behavioral Science (JTiBS) explores the intersection of human behavior, use of technology and healthcare. It considers the social, psychological, cultural, biological, and other medical contexts of behavior.

JTiBS is an international forum and repository for the exchange of ideas between professionals engaged in science, practice, policy and education. It promotes interprofessional scholarship and interdisciplinary collaboration, which transcend geographical, cultural, disciplinary and methodological boundaries. JTiBS bridges the separate but overlapping scientific literature and evidence-bases (e.g., for behavioral healthcare itself, JTiBS spans behavioral analysis, counseling, marriage and family therapy, psychiatry, psychology, social work and substance use).

JTiBS features original research, systematic reviews, and studies of evidence-based practice. It also publishes theoretical articles, position papers, guidelines and editorials on behavioral health, telehealth, telemental health, mHealth, technology, education, eLearning, innovation, and policy. To achieve its goals, JTiBS embraces a variety of methodologies (e.g., surveys and questionnaires, randomized controlled trials, direct observation, descriptive methods, laboratory and field experiments, economic analyses, conference proceedings, project and program profiles, ethnography, evaluation and resource listings).
