# Nature Human Behaviour (nature-human-behaviour) ## Journal positioning Nature Human Behaviour, published by Springer Nature, covers the full breadth of human behavioural science — psychology, cognitive neuroscience, economics, sociology, political science, linguistics, and anthropology — when the study of behaviour is central and the advance is of broad significance across disciplines.

The readership is intentionally cross-disciplinary — a result must be interpretable and meaningful beyond the home discipline of the submitting team. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill nature-human-behaviour --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 984 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
