Instructions to Authors
Academic Psychiatry is the premier peer-reviewed journal focused on psychiatric education and professional development in academic psychiatry. The American Association of Chairs of Departments of Psychiatry, the American Association of Directors of Psychiatric Residency Training, the Association for Academic Psychiatry, and the Association of Directors of Medical Student Education in Psychiatry have joined together to sponsor Academic Psychiatry, which is published bimonthly by American Psychiatric Publishing, Inc. Formerly the Journal of Psychiatric Education, Academic Psychiatry is dedicated to the publication of work concerning educational and professional development efforts by and for psychiatrists. Articles that address teaching, research, administrative, clinical, organizational, and economic issues relevant to the academic missions of departments of psychiatry are welcomed by the journal. The Editors invite high-quality submissions that further knowledge in psychiatric education, stimulate improvements in academic psychiatry, and foster professional development of academic psychiatrists at every career stage.
Peer Review 
All submissions are reviewed by at least two experts to determine the originality, validity, and importance to the field of their content and conclusions. Authors will be sent reviewer comments that are judged to be useful to them. Academic Psychiatry has initiated a rapid review procedure, and authors can expect to receive notification of the Editor¡¯s decision regarding their submission within three months of receipt of the submission by the journal office. To foster rapid publication, any required revisions are expected to be accomplished by the authors within an additional two-month period.
Manuscript Preparation Specifications
Manuscripts must be prepared according to the manuscript specifications of The American Journal of Psychiatry. (Please note, however, that Academic Psychiatry does not publish color figures.) All manuscripts will be edited for clarity, conciseness, and conformity to journal style. Empirical reports of data derived from studies with human participants should briefly but explicitly describe in the methods section what ethical safeguards were in place in the study, e.g., Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval, confidentiality protections, informed consent, conflict of interest disclosure.

Articles
Original reports of empirical research or critical analyses of important topics in psychiatric education or academic psychiatry may be submitted in one of the following formats:
- Special Articles are overview articles that bring together important information on a topic of general interest to academic psychiatrists. Authors who wish to write a Special Article are advised to check with the Editor to ensure that a similar work has not already been submitted or invited. Special Articles may not exceed 6,000 words (24 double-spaced pages) including any tables, figures, and appendices, a structured abstract of no more than 300 words, and no more than 100 references.
- Original Articles may not exceed 3,500 words (14 double-spaced pages) including references and any tables, figures, and appendices, and a structured abstract of no more than 300 words. Original Articles may be conceptually or empirically oriented.
- Brief Reports may not exceed 1,750 words (7 double-spaced pages), with up to 10 references, 2 tables or figures, and an abstract of no more than 150 words. Brief Reports may be conceptually or empirically oriented.
For all articles, any tables, figures, and appendices should be included in the total word count. A table or figure that fills one-half of a vertical manuscript page equals 150 words of text; one that fills one-half of a horizontal page equals 300 words of text; an appendix equals two-thirds of its actual word count.
Manuscripts submitted to Academic Psychiatry should include a structured abstract. All submissions, except letters, require abstracts. The abstract of a Brief Report should be no more than 150 words. All other abstracts should be structured and no more than 300 words. Authors should use the active voice and third person. The structured abstract should include information under the following headings: Objective: the primary purpose of the article; Methods: subjects, design, setting, interventions if any, measurements, data analysis; or, for review articles, data sources, study selection, data extraction; Results: key findings; and Conclusions: potential implications, future directions.
Below the abstract, authors should provide, and identify as such, 3 to 5 keywords or short phrases that will assist indexers in cross-indexing the article and that may be published with the abstract. Terms from the medical subject headings (MeSH) list of Index Medicus should be used; if suitable MeSH terms are not yet available for recently introduced terms, present terms may be used.

Commentary
Submissions for the Commentary section should be tightly reasoned opinion pieces not exceeding 2,500 words (10 double-spaced pages) that address an important issue in psychiatric education, professional development, or academic psychiatry more broadly.
Other Communications
Brief letters not exceeding 1,000 words (4 double-spaced pages) will be considered if they include the notation ¡°for publication.¡± Editorials and pertinent notices and official actions of the sponsoring organizations will also be published.
Submission Procedure
Academic Psychiatry uses an electronic manuscript submission and peer review system called ¡°Manuscript Central.¡± This system allows authors and peer reviewers to upload and access information online, creating a virtually paperless process. Authors upload an electronic file of their paper, peer reviewers read and respond to papers online, and all communications regarding each paper, including letters about interim and final decisions, occur via e-mail. To submit a manuscript for consideration, go to Manuscript Central and either create an account or use your existing account. Then follow the instructions to upload your manuscript in the Author Submission Center.
Because the journal¡¯s peer review process is blind, please ensure that the title page of the file you upload does not contain any author information. Check the acknowledgments section and delete any author-identifying information. Do not use running heads with author names.
The journal staff and the technicians at Manuscript Central have worked hard to make the process as user-friendly as possible. Help information is available within the site including links to a comprehensive question and answer database, a contact e-mail address for online customer service, and technical support phone numbers for national and international callers.
Manuscript Central is convenient and easy to use for editors, authors, and reviewers, and it dramatically decreases the length of the peer review process.
For further information regarding the online submission process or the requirements for submission to Academic Psychiatry, contact the editorial office.
Copyright Transfer
Academic Psychiatry requires approval of manuscript submission by all authors in addition to transfer of copyright. Upon acceptance of an article, the author(s) will be required to assign copyright ownership in writing to Academic Psychiatry. A copyright transfer form, which must be signed by all authors, is available here. Manuscripts will not receive a final decision until a completed form has been received in the editorial office. It is the author¡¯s responsibility to obtain the approval of individuals before acknowledging their assistance on the paper.
