歐洲應(yīng)用生理學雜志的重點是人類綜合生理學。因此，該雜志發(fā)表的原始研究使用了廣泛的技術(shù)和方法，可以幫助我們了解完整健康的人體在各種環(huán)境和鍛煉條件下的功能。這些條件可能包括那些經(jīng)歷過職業(yè)體育、娛樂和日常活動的人，這些經(jīng)歷貫穿了人類從童年到老年的一生。在最近發(fā)表的論文中使用的技術(shù)和方法包括：分子和發(fā)育生物學、生物力學、生物化學、內(nèi)分泌學和營養(yǎng)學以及人類生理學的所有方面。“理論論文、臨床論文和動物實驗論文都不能排除在外，但必須與人類生理學明確相關(guān)。”

The focus of the European Journal of Applied Physiology is on human integrative physiology. Accordingly the journal publishes original research utilising a wide range of techniques and approaches which can contribute to our understanding of the function of the intact healthy human body under a variety of environmental and exercise conditions. Such conditions may include those experienced in occupational sporting recreational and daily activities thoughout the human life-span from childhood to old age. Techniques and approaches utilised in recent published papers include: molecular and developmental biology biomechanics biochemistry endocrinology and nutrition as well as all aspects of human physiology. "Theoretical papers as well as those of a clinical nature and those dealing with animal work are not excluded from consideration but must be clearly relevant to human physiology."
