Journal Title：American Journal Of Primatology

The objective of the American Journal of Primatology is to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and findings among primatologists and to convey our increasing understanding of this order of animals to specialists and interested readers alike.

Primatology is an unusual science in that its practitioners work in a wide variety of departments and institutions, live in countries throughout the world, and carry out a vast range of research procedures. Whether we are anthropologists, psychologists, biologists, or medical researchers, whether we live in Japan, Kenya, Brazil, or the United States, whether we conduct naturalistic observations in the field or experiments in the lab, we are united in our goal of better understanding primates. Our studies of nonhuman primates are of interest to scientists in many other disciplines ranging from entomology to sociology.

American Journal of Primatology 的目标是提供一个论坛，供灵长类动物学家交流想法和发现，并向专家和感兴趣的读者传达我们对这一动物目越来越多的了解。

灵长类动物学是一门不同寻常的科学，因为它的从业者在各种各样的部门和机构工作，生活在世界各国，并开展了广泛的研究程序。无论我们是人类学家、心理学家、生物学家还是医学研究人员，无论我们生活在日本、肯尼亚、巴西还是美国，无论我们是在野外进行自然主义观察还是在实验室中进行实验，我们都团结在更好的目标上了解灵长类动物。我们对非人类灵长类动物的研究引起了从昆虫学到社会学等许多其他学科的科学家的兴趣。
