Scope
The section aims at promoting research into cognitive, affective and brain-related mechanisms that contribute to states of psychological suffering. We welcome contributions concerned with the interplay between cognitive neuropsychology, clinical psychology, experimental psychology, social psychology and brain sciences, applied principally to human psychopathology.Psychopathology additionally covers relationship biology, subjective experience and therapeutic intervention. As one main issue that remains largely unresolved relates to clinical phenomena, our editorial line encompasses research in clinical phenomenology. Studies of patient populations, analyses of abnormal behavior and motivation (informed by recent behavior theories), case histories, and theoretical papers of scholarly substance on deviant personality and emotional abnormality would all fall within the scope of interests. We welcome model-based research and integrative and translational approaches combining different disciplines of psychology, as well as animal research.
Articles will represent contributions to the knowledge and understanding of psychopathology, in terms of etiology and dynamics of change. Our ultimate aim is to further promote research applied to psychopathology at this critical time when integrative approaches are viewed as the most promising avenue to understanding psychopathological states.

All manuscripts must be submitted directly to the section Psychopathology, where they are peer-reviewed by the Associate and Review Editors of the specialty section.
Articles published in the section Psychopathology will benefit from the Frontiers impact and tiering system after online publication. Authors of published original research with the highest impact, as judged democratically by the readers, will be invited by the Chief Editor to write a Frontiers Focused Review - a tier-climbing article. This is referred to as "democratic tiering". The author selection is based on article impact analytics of original research published in all Frontiers specialty journals and sections. Focused Reviews are centered on the original discovery, place it into a broader context, and aim to address the wider community across all of Psychology and Psychiatry.
