Instructions to Authors

Prior to submission, please carefully read and follow the submission guidelines detailed below. Manuscripts that do not conform to the submission guidelines may be returned without review.

Mission

Families, Systems, & Health seeks to develop the knowledge base of a systemic approach to healthcare that integrates mind and body; individual and family; and communities, clinicians, and health systems while considering cost-effectiveness and distributive justice.

The journal's scope includes the following three domains:

  • Family Functioning: emphasizes understanding health, illness, and treatment from birth to death within the family context rather than focusing on individuals in isolation. The term "family" is used broadly to include but not be limited to the legal, biological, or psychological family, household members unrelated by blood or marriage, and intimates who have a relationship over time.
  • Systems Thinking: an overarching concept that recognizes the interrelatedness of all human systems (e.g., biological, psychological, interpersonal, familial, societal, political, economic, cultural, spiritual). This perspective is useful in examining dynamics within a profession or among clinical staff, relationships among patients, families, communities, and clinical staff, and the coordination of care across levels of the health system.
  • Health:refers to the optimal state of the body, mind, and spirit of individuals, families, or communities. Healthcare includes the practice of all health professionals, including physicians, mental health professionals, nurses, pharmacists, and many other disciplines.

The journal provides a forum to examine clinical and program innovation, health policy, research, and evaluation of training. Families, Systems, & Health is the official peer-reviewed journal of the Collaborative Family Healthcare Association.

Manuscript Submission

Prior to submission, please review the submission guidelines detailed below. Please view the Manuscript Submission Checklist (PDF, 40KB) as a guide for submission. Authors must review all items on this checklist before submitting to the journal.

All manuscripts are considered on the understanding that they have not been published previously in print or electronic form and that they are not under consideration by another publication or medium. All manuscripts should respect patient confidentiality; research involving human subjects must include ethical approval.

Submit manuscripts electronically (.rtf, .doc, or .pdf) via the Manuscript Submission Portal.

Manuscript Submission Portal Entrance

Co-Editors, Families, Systems, & Health

General correspondence and inquiries may be directed to the Manuscript Coordinator, Christen Parzych.

Authors may obtain a user ID and password on the first visit. Instructions and support for the submission process are available on the site.

All parts of the manuscript must be available in an electronic format; generic rich text format (.rtf), PDF, or Microsoft Word.

Manuscript Preparation

Prepare manuscripts according to the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (6th edition). Manuscripts may be copyedited for bias-free language (see Chapter 3 of the Publication Manual).

Review APA's Checklist for Manuscript Submission before submitting your article.

Double-space all copy. Other formatting instructions, as well as instructions on preparing tables, figures, references, metrics, and abstracts, appear in the Manual.

When required, structured abstracts should follow the Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion (IMRAD) format.

Tables

Tables or figures should be used to display demographic data and results and to organize the presentation of other information (e.g., themes, concepts, implications) in a way that makes it easily digestible for the reader.

Submit a separate page for each table; provide a title for each table; indicate its placement within text.

Use Word's Insert Table function when you create tables. Using spaces or tabs in your table will create problems when the table is typeset and may result in errors.

References in Text

Cite authors and dates of works used. First citation may include up to five authors; in subsequent citations of 3+ authors, state surname of first author, then et al. and the publication date, e.g., Jones et al. (1994). Multiple citations must be listed in alphabetical order.

Manuscript Criteria

All manuscripts should be concise, well organized, and clearly written using active voice to present ideas relevant to the Journal's scope: family functioning, systems thinking, and health, broadly defined. Manuscripts should address at least two of these three domains.

We welcome contributions from authors whose first language is not English and recommend that authors obtain professional assistance in written English prior to submission to ensure clarity, grammar, syntax, and organization.

Editorial and Peer-Review Process

One of the two editors reviews submitted manuscripts to assess quality and determine fit for the Journal. Articles sent out for peer review show potential to make a new and useful contribution to the literature.

Families, Systems, & Health uses a single-blinded review process; the author(s) is known to peer reviewers; peer reviewer identities are blinded to the author(s).

All accepted manuscripts are edited according to the journal's style and returned to the author as page proofs for approval. Authors take responsibility for all statements made in their work.

Publication Policies

APA policy prohibits an author from submitting the same manuscript for concurrent consideration by two or more publications.

See also APA Journals® Internet Posting Guidelines.

Ethical Principles

It is a violation of APA Ethical Principles to publish "as original data, data that have been previously published" (Standard 8.13).

In addition, APA Ethical Principles specify that "after research results are published, psychologists do not withhold the data on which their conclusions are based from other competent professionals who seek to verify the substantive claims through reanalysis and who intend to use such data only for that purpose, provided that the confidentiality of the participants can be protected and unless legal rights concerning proprietary data preclude their release" (Standard 8.14).

APA expects authors to adhere to these standards. Specifically, APA expects authors to have their data available throughout the editorial review process and for at least 5 years after the date of publication.

Authors are required to state in writing that they have complied with APA ethical standards in the treatment of their sample, human or animal, or to describe the details of treatment.

The APA Ethics Office provides the full Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct electronically on its website in HTML, PDF, and Word format. You may also request a copy by emailing or calling the APA Ethics Office (202-336-5930). You may also read "Ethical Principles," December 1992, American Psychologist, Vol. 47, pp. 1597–1611.
