Aims and Scope
Humanities & Social Sciences Communications is a fully open-access, online journal publishing peer-reviewed research from across—and between—all areas of the humanities, behavioral and social sciences.
We publish Articles, Reviews and Comments, as well as guest-edited thematic Article Collections (‘special issues’). The journal is supported by an international Editorial Board.
Our scope is inclusive and is open to theoretical, methodological, quantitative and qualitative scholarship that makes a contribution to the literature. We particularly welcome research that speaks to emerging areas of thinking, agenda-setting issues, or grand societal challenge—irrespective of the field of study.
We encourage the submission of interdisciplinary perspectives where there is a clear relevance to the advancement of the humanities, or behavioural or social sciences. This includes research arising in, or informed by, the physical, life, clinical and environmental sciences, for instance: medical humanities, digital humanities, environmental sociology, and complex network studies.
Scholarship that reflects on, or seeks to inform, policymaking of all types, is also welcomed.

Verified Reviews
The research team, led by Dr. Fang Chuanglin from the Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, constructed a comprehensive assessment framework for urban and rural living environments. They conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the urban and rural living environments in 31 provinces and regions across China over the past 20 years from an objective perspective. They also conducted a survey assessment of the public satisfaction with the living environment in various regions in 2020, collecting more than 500,000 questionnaires from residents. They then conducted a detailed comparative analysis of the subjective and objective evaluation results of the living environments in different regions.
The research findings were published in "Humanities and Social Sciences Communications," with Dr. Fang Chuanglin from the Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences as the first author and Associate Researcher Ma Haitao as the corresponding author.
