Request a sales quoteSSM - Mental Health (SSM-MH) provides an international and interdisciplinary forum for the dissemination of social science research on mental health and behavioral health.
SSM - Mental Health shares the same general approach to manuscripts as its companion title, Social Science & Medicine . The journal takes a broad view of the field of mental and behavioral health, especially welcoming interdisciplinary papers from across the Social Sciences and allied areas.
We publish original research articles (both empirical and theoretical), reviews, position papers, and commentaries on mental health issues, to inform current research, policy, and practice in all areas of common interest to social scientists, health practitioners, and policy makers. We also publish Series, a unique format which combine 2-3 related articles around a similar theme or context.
The journal publishes material relevant to any aspect of mental health and behavioral health from a wide range of social science disciplines (anthropology, sociology, psychology, psychiatry, epidemiology, implementation science, population health science, and public health), and material relevant to the social sciences from any of the professions concerned with mental health, health care, clinical practice, and health policy. We encourage material that is motivated by a theoretical framework and of general interest to an international readership.
The three key areas of SSM-MH are:
Implementation Science and Intervention Research
Medical Anthropology and Critical Social Science
Psychiatric Epidemiology and Population Mental Health Science
Topics and approaches of particular relevance to the journal include: interdisciplinary methods and theory; social determinants of mental health and disparities in mental health; mixed-methods research; methodological notes; replication studies of novel mental health interventions; psychiatric epidemiology; and research on flourishing, resilience, and well-being.
SSM-MH seeks to maintain the highest standards of peer-reviewed excellence, as well as to provide a forum for debate in the field of social sciences and mental health.
