Resumen
ANNICCHIARICO, IVÁN; GUTIERREZ, GERMÁN y PEREZ-ACOSTA, ANDRÉS M.. Behavioral neurosciences in Latin-American psychology journals. Av. Psicol. Latinoam. [online]. 2013, vol.31, n.1, pp.3-32. ISSN 1794-4724.
Behavioral neurosciences have evolved from other disciplines such as psychology, psychiatry and neurology, becoming a prominent area within general neuroscience. In mainstream psychology, neurosciences currently have an important role. In this paper we documented articles published in four Latin-American psychology journals and we classified these papers as empirical or theoretical. We analyzed the main topics covered in the behavioral neurosciences. Most of reported research used humans and rats as study subjects, although other species have also been used as models. Data suggest behavioral neurosciences currently play a growing and prominent role in Latin American psychology.
