Aims & scope
The International Journal of Forensic Mental Health provides an international forum for disseminating research and practical developments to forensic mental health professionals. Forensic populations include both adults and youth involved in the criminal justice system, particularly mentally disordered offenders and sex offenders. The focus is on forensic issues such as criminal responsibility, competency or fitness to stand trial, risk assessment, family violence, and treatment of forensic clients. The journal reflects the international audience represented by the International Association of Forensic Mental Health Services, and articles comparing the law and/or practice in different countries are encouraged. The journal is the official publication of the International Association of Forensic Mental Health Services, and the journal is a benefit of membership.
Peer Review Policy: Unless otherwise indicated, all articles in this journal have undergone peer review, including review by the editorial staff and at least two independent reviewers.
Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 530 Walnut Street, Suite 850, Philadelphia, PA 19106 .
