Behavioural Sciences of Terrorism and Political Aggression (ISSN: 1943-4472) is a peer reviewed academic journal which focuses on both the causation and effects of terrorist activity. [1]

The Journal publishes both empirical and theoretical papers, which have a strong base in behavioral science research. The articles look to draw in insights from related disciplines, which includes anthropology, criminology, economics, history, political science and sociology. [1]


The Journals principal aim is to further the understanding of key questions within terrorism research, including:

  • What are the conditions that lead to the use of terrorist tactics?
  • How can future terrorist attacks be predicted?
  • How can terrorist attacks be prevented, or at least reduced?
  • How are terrorists recruited?
  • How can would-be terrorists and potential supporters be diverted?
  • What is the impact of terrorism on societies that have been attacked?
  • What are the effects of counterterrorism efforts on societies where such efforts are ongoing?
  • How can recovery from the effects of terrorism on individuals and groups be expedited? [1]

The articles within this journal must undergo a peer reviewal process, which means that all submitted manuscripts are subject to 'initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to single blind peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees.' [1]

The journal which is published by Routledge is issues three times annually.
