神經語言學雜志是神經科學和語言科學結合的國際論壇。JNL提供快速出版的小說，同行評審的研究之間的互動語言，溝通和大腦過程。重點是對經驗或理論性質的嚴格研究，這些研究對我們關于神經系統(tǒng)參與交流及其崩潰的知識作出了最初的貢獻。歡迎來自神經學、溝通障礙、語言學、神經心理學和認知科學的貢獻。發(fā)表的文章通常會討論語言或言語功能的某些方面與其神經底物相關的問題，具有明確的理論意義。鼓勵跨學科研究語言生物學基礎的任何方面，以及由腦損傷引起的語言障礙。對正常受試者進行研究，明確參照大腦功能，是合適的。對明確定義的樣本進行群體研究，并對有明確記錄的病變或神經系統(tǒng)功能障礙進行案例研究，都是可以接受的。該雜志對實證報告和評論文章持開放態(tài)度。此外，還歡迎就語言與神經系統(tǒng)的結構和功能之間的關系發(fā)表專題文章。

The Journal of Neurolinguistics is an international forum for the integration of the neurosciences and language sciences. JNL provides for rapid publication of novel, peer-reviewed research into the interaction between language, communication and brain processes. The focus is on rigorous studies of an empirical or theoretical nature and which make an original contribution to our knowledge about the involvement of the nervous system in communication and its breakdowns. Contributions from neurology, communication disorders, linguistics, neuropsychology and cognitive science in general are welcome. Published articles will typically address issues relating some aspect of language or speech function to its neurological substrates with clear theoretical import. Interdisciplinary work on any aspect of the biological foundations of language and its disorders resulting from brain damage is encouraged. Studies of normal subjects, with clear reference to brain functions, are appropriate. Group-studies on well defined samples and case studies with well documented lesion or nervous system dysfunction are acceptable. The journal is open to empirical reports and review articles. Special issues on aspects of the relation between language and the structure and function of the nervous system are also welcome.
