《人类进化杂志》专注于发表涵盖人类进化各个方面的高质量论文。中心的重点是共同进行古人类学工作，包括人类和灵长类动物化石，以及对现存物种的比较研究，包括形态学和分子证据。这些包括对新发现的描述，对新发现和先前描述的材料的解释性分析，以及对灵长类物种的系统发育和古生物学的评估。提交的论文应涉及古人类学中广泛关注的问题。除了原始的研究论文，空间还被分配给快速出版有关新发现的简短通讯，如令人兴奋的新化石，以及领先的书评和讣告。所有稿件都要经过三位审稿人的审核。

The Journal of Human Evolution concentrates on publishing the highest quality papers covering all aspects of human evolution. The central focus is aimed jointly at paleoanthropological work, covering human and primate fossils, and at comparative studies of living species, including both morphological and molecular evidence. These include descriptions of new discoveries, interpretative analyses of new and previously described material, and assessments of the phylogeny and paleobiology of primate species. Submissions should address issues and questions of broad interest in paleoanthropology.In addition to original research papers, space is allocated for the rapid publication of short communications on new discoveries, such as exciting new fossils, as well as to lead book reviews and obituaries. All manuscripts are subjected to review by three referees.
