Authorship Guidelines
The Journals Division at Human Kinetics adheres to the criteria for authorship as outlined by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors*:

Each author should have participated sufficiently in the work to take public responsibility for the content. Authorship credit should be based only on substantial contributions to:

a. Conception and design, or analysis and interpretation of data; and
b. Drafting the article or revising it critically for important intellectual content; and
c. Final approval of the version to be published.

Conditions a, b, and c must all be met. Individuals who do not meet the above criteria may be listed in the acknowledgments section of the manuscript.
*Uniform requirements for manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals. New England Journal of Medicine, 1991, 324, 424–428.

Open Access
Human Kinetics is pleased to allow our authors the option of having their articles published Open Access withinJCSP. In order for an article to be published Open Access, authors must complete and return the Request for Open Access form and provide payment for this option. To request Open Access, click here.

Manuscript Guidelines
The Journal of Clinical Sport Psychology (JCSP) is a scholarly, peer-reviewed journal that provides practical and clinically relevant recommendations to mental health providers and practitioners in sport and exercise psychology, stimulates provocative discussions, promotes best practices and intervention strategies, and disseminates applied research findings that clearly show clinical relevance. The journal covers a broad range of topics. Some examples of relevant topics include psychology of injury, eating disorders, exercise and mental health, and substance use disorders. This journal highlights the clinical application of research findings within direct psychological service delivery spanning a wide range of clients and settings. JCSP recognizes the importance of diverse methodologies, varied treatment approaches, and the importance of having authors represent a wide range of perspectives around sport and exercise psychology. JCSP is international in scope and submissions from around the world and with diverse populations are encouraged. 

Writing Style
All manuscript submissions should be written in accessible language, free of scientific jargon, and easily understood by a wide variety of clinicians and applied sport psychology practitioners. To align with the mission of JCSP, submissions should strive to demonstrate clinical relevance. Authors should follow the latest version of APA style, and manuscripts should be void of typos and grammatical errors. Line numbering and 12-point font should be used for the double-spaced document.

Types of Papers

  1. Original research papers follow traditional format and section headings to demonstrate literature background, methods, results, and discussion. All methodologies are welcomed (e.g., quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods). To follow ethical research procedures, prior institutional review board approval is expected. Applied and clinical relevance of the project should be clearly demonstrated throughout. Authors are strongly encouraged to include a clinical implications section in their manuscript to provide practical implications for clinicians or practitioners working in this field. Including abstract (150 word maximum), tables, and references these papers should not exceed 30 pages. 
  2.  Practice papers are applied pieces that may, for example, detail “best practice” prevention, intervention, or treatment approaches to addressing problems within sport, exercise, and performance contexts. Another option is a “lessons learned” paper that describes challenges and recommendations gleaned from implementing a program or intervention with athletes, exercisers, or performers. Papers may also use published research findings or theoretical frameworks to inform practice recommendations to clinicians, practitioners, and others working in the field. These papers should be 20 pages or less, including the abstract (150 word maximum), tables, and references.
  3. Commentaries are brief papers that describe hot topics in the field or argue for a particular viewpoint, therapeutic approach or strategies for navigating challenges that may arise in research and practice for sport and exercise psychology. Although these may be viewed as “opinion papers”, authors should tie ideas to the literature and employ a professional tone to ensure a compelling scholarly argument. These papers require abstracts (150 word maximum) and should not exceed 10 pages.
  4. Case illustration and therapeutic approach papers articulate a specific and in depth case to make a problem “come to life” and illustrate challenges and intervention strategies in a clinical or applied setting. If based on a real case, all identifying characteristics should be altered to protect the identity of the client(s). These papers must include a case narrative, case interpretation, and a clinical implications section with a recommended therapeutic approach supported by research. These papers require abstracts (150 word maximum) and should not exceed 7 pages. 

Questions about the journal or manuscript submission should be directed to the Assistant Editor, Christina Johnson,ChristinaJ@hkusa.com 

Artwork Instructions

Figures or photos should be in .jpeg or .tif files. Format tables using the “Table” function of your word processing program rather than aligning columns in text with tabs and spaces or using text boxes.

Review

Please note that papers decisioned as reject and resubmit during 2017 should no longer consider resubmitting as of August 2018. Please also be aware that while authors are welcome to submit their work that has been previously reviewed, all manuscripts will be treated as new submissions and need to adhere to current author guidelines.
