About the journal
Psychiatry - Interpersonal and Biological Processes
|
Internationally recognized for its scope and imagination for over six decades, Psychiatry has been restructured in response to rapid research advances in psychiatry, psychology, neuroscience, group and family processes, and other disciplines that investigate mental health. Increasingly, studies in these areas are being placed in the context of human development across the lifespan, and linked to carefully studied variations in the social ecology of human life. This journal is an essential resource for researchers, clinicians, and trainees seeking broadly applicable and effective solutions to the major unsolved problems in the field. |

Manuscripts are submitted to Psychiatry with the understanding that they have not been published or accepted for publication elsewhere, in whole or in part, and that they are not being simultaneously considered by any other publisher. The receipt of manuscripts is acknowledged promptly, and a decision is reported to the author as rapidly as a careful evaluation procedure permits. Articles are accepted subject to editorial modification in accordance with the journal's particular style and requirements. Any such editorial changes are made in consultation with the author. Rejected manuscripts will be destroyed after thirty (30) days. Manuscripts should be double-spaced throughout and should be submitted in quadruplicate. They should be accompanied by a stamped, addressed manuscript envelope.
Since Psychiatry is an interdisciplinary journal, articles submitted should be so written as to be communicative to readers outside the author's special field. The manuscript must begin with an abstract of not more than 200 words that summarizes the main questions and findings of the study or observations reported. A biographical footnote, in the indicated style, is required, and it is the author's responsibility to verify all references and quotations. The reference style shown in current issues of Psychiatry should be followed. Authors should avoid using abbreviations and initials (such as "OCD"' for "obsessive compulsive disorder") as well as trade names for pharmacological agents. Authors must also provide information about how consent was obtained for obtaining data from research subjects or from patients who are described in clinical reports. If consent has not been obtained from patients in ongoing or in completed treatment with the author or a colleague, the author must describe why consent was not obtained as well as a description of how the manuscript protects the confidentiality of the therapeutic relationship. A cover letter to the editor should provide information on consent or confidentiality or indicate where in the manuscript this information is given. This journal subscribes to the current policies of the NIMH Consortium of Editors for the publication of data on the social class, ethnicity and gender of research samples. Please consult the statement describing this policy before submitting a manuscript. This journal also subscribes to the consortium's policies on undivided publication of research findings which is detailed on the facing page.
Permission must be requested for lengthy quotation, reprinting, or other reproduction material published (or accepted) by Psychiatry.
