Sep 11, 2013 at 12:12 comment added user3116 I like everything about this answer, except I'm not in favour of titles that describe the are of study, like "brain and behavior", because what about "brain and emotions" or "cognition and soma" etc.? Of course there are difinitions that include emotions and psychosomatic effects as "internal behavior", but that is not everyday knowledge.
Jul 14, 2012 at 22:12 comment added zergylord I second the notion that "brain and Behavior" is too reductive. Cognition is the key underlying object of study within the cognitive sciences, and not having a reference to it in our title could only harm our community.
May 2, 2012 at 5:54 comment added Artem Kaznatcheev I like "Brain and Behavior" but I feel it is too reductionist and might be off-putting to some psychologists, it would be nice to incorporate Mind in there, unfortunately "Mind, Brain, and Behavior" is too clunky...
May 1, 2012 at 14:46 comment added Nate I'm a big fan of "Brain and Behavior" or "Mind, Brain, and Behavior." Probably more the former than the latter. Also perhaps "Brain and Behavioral Science."
Apr 30, 2012 at 16:45 comment added Zelda Are there other ways we can emphasize that final S in Cognitive Sciences via the FAQ and copywriting around the site? I love the welcome text idea.
Apr 30, 2012 at 13:13 comment added Jeromy Anglim Mod @StevenJeuris I quite like it too.
Apr 30, 2012 at 10:53 comment added Steven Jeuris Mod I'm still a proponent of Brain and Behavior. I find it to be the most inclusive one of them all.
