About the journal
AIDS and Behavior provides an international venue for the scientific exchange of research and scholarly work on the contributing factors, prevention, consequences, social impact, and response to HIV/AIDS. This bimonthly journal publishes original peer-reviewed papers that address all areas of AIDS behavioral research including: individual, contextual, social, economic and geographic factors that facilitate HIV transmission; interventions aimed to reduce HIV transmission risks at all levels and in all contexts; mental health aspects of HIV/AIDS; medical and behavioral consequences of HIV infection - including health-related quality of life, coping, treatment and treatment adherence; and the impact of HIV infection on adults children, families, communities and societies. The journal publishes original research articles, brief research reports, and critical literature reviews.

Submission is a representation that the manuscript has not been published previously and is not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. A statement
transferring copyright from the authors (or their employers, if they hold the copyright) to Springer will be required before the manuscript can be accepted for publication. The
Editor will supply the necessary forms for this transfer. Such a written transfer of copyright, which previously was assumed to be implicit in the act of submitting a manuscript, is necessary under the U.S. Copyright Law in order for the publisher to carry through the dissemination of research results and reviews as widely and effectively as possible.
Manuscripts should be submitted to the Editor through Springer’s Editorial Manager peer review system at:
Manuscript Preparation
- Type double-spaced on one side of 8 ½ × 11-inch white paper using generous margins on all sides, (including copies of all illustrations and tables).
- A title page is to be provided and should include the title of the article, authors name (no degrees), authors affiliation, and suggested running head. The affiliation should
comprise the department, institution (usually university or company), city, and state (or nation) and should be typed as a footnote to the authors name. The suggested running
head should be less than 80 characters (including spaces) and should comprise the article title or an abbreviated version thereof. For office purposes, the title page should include the complete mailing address, telephone number, fax number, and email address of the one author designated to review proofs.
- With the exception of Brief Reports and Behavioral Surveillance Reports, initial submissions to AIDS and Behavior do not have word or page limits. Briefer and more succinct papers tend to review better and papers may be reduced in length as part of the review process. However, the length of the original submission is left to author discretion.
- An abstract is to be provided, preferably no longer than 150 words.
- A list of 4-5 key words is to be provided directly below the abstract. Key words should express the precise content of the manuscript, as they are used for indexing purposes.
- All sections should carry headings (such as INTRODUCTION, METHODS, RESULTS, DISCUSSION, CONCLUSIONS, etc.), typed flush left. All acknowledgments (including those for grant and financial support) should be typed in one paragraph (so−headed) on a separate page, that directly precedes the References section.
- Illustrations (photographs, drawings, diagrams, and charts) are to be numbered in one consecutive series of Arabic numerals. The captions for illustrations should be typed on a separate sheet of paper. All illustrations must be complete and final, i.e., camera-ready. Photographs should be large, glossy prints, showing high contrast. Drawings should be high quality laser prints or should be prepared with india ink. Either the original drawings or good−quality photographic prints are acceptable. Artwork for each figure should be provided on a separate sheet of paper. Identify figures on the back with authors name and number of the illustration. Electronic artwork submitted on disk should be in the TIFF or EPS format (1200 dpi for line and 300 dpi for halftones and grayscale art). Color art should be in the CYMK color space. Artwork should be on a separate disk from the text, and hard copy must accompany the disk.
- Tables should be numbered (with Roman numerals) and referred to by number in the text. Each table should be typed on a separate sheet of paper. Center the title above the table, and type explanatory footnotes (indicated by superscript lowercase letters) below the table.
- AIDS and Behavior does not have a limit on number of authors. However, if deemed to be excessive the editor may request author justifications and reductions.
AIDS and Behavior uses Vancouver style as outlined in the American Medical Association Manual of style: A Guide for Authors and Editors, 10th Edition.
A reference number is allocated to a source in the order in which it is cited in the text. In text, identify references with superscript Arabic numerals. If the source is referred to again, the same number is used. References are listed in numerical order in the Reference List at the end of the paper. Do not alphabetize. Use abbreviated names of journals according to the journal list in PubMed. List all authors and/or editors up to 6; if more than 6, list the first 3 followed by “et al.” The following are examples.
1) McKirnan DJ, Vanable PA, Ostrow DG, Hope B. Expectancies of sexual "escape" and sexual risk among drug and alcohol-involved gay and bisexual men. J Subst Abuse. 2001;13(1-2):137-54.
2) van der Straten A, Cheng H, Moore, J et al. The use of the diaphragm instead of condoms in a phase III diaphragm trial. AIDS Behav. 2009; 13(3):564-72.
3) Eaton LA, Kalichman SC. Changes in transmission risk behaviors across stages of HIV disease among people living with HIV. J Assoc Nurses AIDS Care. 2009 Jan-Feb;20(1):39-49.

Verify that every instance of a number in text corresponds to the numbered reference.
Footnotes should be avoided. When their use is absolutely necessary, footnotes should be numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals and should be typed at the bottom of the page to which they refer. Place a line above the footnote, so that it is set off from the text. Use the appropriate superscript numeral for citation in the text.
Page Charge
The journal makes no page charges. Reprints are available to authors, and order forms with the current price schedule are sent with proofs.
Springer Open Choice
Springer Open Choice. In addition to the normal publication process (whereby an article is submitted to the journal and access to that article is granted to customers who
have purchased a subscription), Springer now provides an alternative publishing option: Springer Open Choice. A Springer Open Choice article receives all the benefits of a
regular subscription−based article, but in addition is made available publicly through Springer’s online platform SpringerLink. To publish via Springer Open Choice, upon acceptance please visit the link below to complete the relevant order form and provide the required payment information. Payment must be received in full before publication or articles will publish as regular subscription−model articles. We regret that Springer Open Choice cannot be ordered for published articles.
Instructions for Brief Reports
AIDS and Behavior accepts Brief Reports of soundly designed research studies that are of specialized interest or can be considered preliminary findings. An author who submits a Brief Report must agree not to submit the full report to another journal. To ensure that a Brief Report does not exceed the available journal pages (approximately 4 pages), the text of the paper should not exceed 14 pages using one inch margins all around and a font size of 12 point. The Abstract should be limited to 100 words. References should be limited to no more than 12 and there should be no more than one table or one figure.
