Instructions to Authors
The Journal of School Nursing (JOSN) is the official journal of the National Association of School Nurses. It is a peer-reviewed journal whose purpose is to provide a forum for advancing the specialty of school nursing, contributing to knowledge development about school nursing practice, and promoting the professional growth of school nurses thus ultimately advancing the health of school children. See the Aims and Scope link for a description of types of manuscripts sought. Manuscripts from all disciplines related to child, school, and community health are welcome.
Because JOSN seeks manuscripts that bring new perspectives and innovations to school nursing, we urge authors to review previously published articles related to their topic in order to (1) build on the comprehensive body of published literature on the subject and (2) ensure the uniqueness of their own article’s contribution.
Types of Articles
Evidence Based Practice or Policy Reports
Evidence based practice reports of change projects or resulting policies and projects assessing program quality should include an introduction reporting a clear statement of the issue and purpose of the project. The introduction should also include a synthesis of the evidence base guiding the program or policy. The methods section should include ethical considerations, and setting description. A description of the measures and the implementation should be included as well as the analysis used in evaluation. Results can include outcomes, guidelines derived for the program as well as lessons learned. Implications for school nursing and school health services are expected.
Commentaries
Commentaries are shorter (no more than five pages including references) manuscripts addressing emerging issues in school health or previous publications in The JOSN. Commentaries are scholarly manuscripts that include references and call attention to issues for school nursing and school health community.
Integrative Literature Reviews
Integrative literature reviews should provide a comprehensive review of the literature and synthesize findings related to specific problems or school health programs. School nursing and school health services implications drawn from the reviews strengthen the relevance for The JOSN.
Original Research Reports
Original research reports include pilot, preliminary and feasibility studies as well as studies of all designs including epidemiological studies and clinical trials. Original research reports can address specific clinical problems that affect individuals in the school community or the school population. The implications for school nursing and school health services delivery should be identified.
Referenced Editorials
Editorials address current issues important to the health of school children and school nursing practice. The purpose of editorials is to stimulate scholarly thought among school nurses and other school health practitioners and researchers.
Letters to the Editor
Letters to the Editor provide a forum for commenting on articles published in The JOSN and topics of general interest in school health care. The length should not exceed 800 words of text with a minimal number of references. One table or figure may be included, if necessary. Any comments regarding a specific article must include the title, author(s), and date of publication. Letters that contain questions or critique of a previously published paper will be forwarded to the author(s) of that article for a reply. The sharing of ideas, experiences, opinions, and alternative views is encouraged. The Executive Editor of The Journal reserves the right to accept, reject, or excerpt letters for clarity and appropriateness of content, and to accommodate space requirements. Submit Letters to the Editor to: jcowell@nasn.org.
