About the journal
Description:
Keep abreast of the current research with Assessment, the journal that brings you important articles derived from psychometric research, clinical comparisons, theoretical formulations and literature reviews that fall within the broad domain of clinical and applied psychological assessment. The journal presents information of direct relevance to the use of assessment measures, including the practical applications of measurement methods, test development and interpretation practices, and advances in the description and prediction of human behavior.
The scope of the journal extends from the evaluation of individuals and groups in clinical, counseling, health, forensic, organizational, industrial, and educational settings; to the assessment of treatment efficacy, program evaluation, job performance and the study of behavior outcomes.
Aims and Scope:
Assessment publishes articles in the domain of applied clinical assessment. The emphasis of this journal is on publication of information of relevance to the use of assessment measures, including test development, validation, and interpretation practices. The scope of the journal includes research that can inform assessment practices in mental health, forensic, medical, and other applied settings. Papers that focus on the assessment of cognitive and neuropsychological functioning, personality, and psychopathology are invited. Most papers published in Assessment report the results of original empirical research, however integrative review articles and scholarly case studies will also be considered. Papers focusing on multicultural issues in psychological assessment are of particular interest.
Articles are invited that target empirical assessment of clinically relevant phenomena such as behaviors, personality characteristics, and diagnoses. Research subjects may represent diverse age and socioeconomic categories and both clinical and nonclinical populations. Research reviews and methodologically-focused papers will be considered, and article format may be varied to accommodate brief reports.
Instructions to Authors Manuscript Submission Guidelines:
The editor invites manuscripts covering a broad range of topics and techniques in the area of assessment. These may include empirical studies of assessment of personality, psychopathology, cognitive functions or behavior, articles dealing with general methodological or psychometric topics relevant to assessment, or comprehensive literature reviews in any of these areas. Research participants may represent both clinical and nonclinical populations. Submission of articles addressing forensic assessment issues is encouraged. The editor also seeks manuscripts addressing multicultural, cross-cultural, and international aspects of assessment.
Brief reports may be submitted for publication and should be limited to 1,000 words, including an abstract of 75 words or less. The brief report format should be used for carefully designed and executed investigations of research topics of specialized interest that make a significant contribution to the literature but do not require a full-length manuscript. In addition, comments may be submitted as brief manuscripts responding to articles published in the journal. Comments should be no longer than 1,000 words and will be selected for publication based on an editorial review process. Comments based on topics other than articles published in the journal will not be accepted.
Authors submitting manuscripts to the journal should not simultaneously submit them to another journal, nor should manuscripts have been published elsewhere, including the World Wide Web, in substantially similar form or with substantially similar content.
Manuscript Submission:
Manuscripts must be submitted in electronic form in Microsoft Word or Rich Text Format (rtf). Figures may be submitted using any of the formats listed below. A masked blind review process may be requested in the cover letter, in which case the authors should add a masked title page following the title page. To expedite processing, manuscripts must be submitted as electronic attachments along with the cover letter to assessment@kent.edu. Questions should be directed to assessment@kent.edu or to the ASSESSMENT editorial office at (330) 672-3580.

Authors should use the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th edition, 2001) as a guide for preparing manuscripts for submission. All manuscript pages, including reference lists and tables, must be typed double-spaced.
The cover letter should include a brief biographical paragraph describing each author's affiliation, research interest, and recent publications.
The first page of the paper (the title page) should contain the article title, the names and affiliations of all authors, authors¡¯ notes or acknowledgments, and the names and complete mailing addresses of the corresponding author. When necessary, a masked title page should follow the title page.

Each figure should appear on a separate page at the end of the manuscript but before the tables, and all titles should appear on a single, separate page.
Endnotes. Notes should appear on a separate page before the References section. Notes should be numbered consecutively and each endnote should be referred to in text with a corresponding superscript number.
