5 Year impact factor: 2.7
Impact factor: 2.2

Official Journal of: Gait and Clinical Movement Analysis Society (GCMAS), European Society of Movement Analysis in Adults and Children (ESMAC), Società Italiana di Analisi del Movimento in Clinica (SIAMOC), and the International Society for Posture and Gait Research (ISPGR) and the German Speaking Society for the Analysis of Human Motor Function and its Clinical Application (GAMMA). Gait & Posture publishes new and innovative basic and clinical research on all aspects of human movement, locomotion and balance.The topics covered include: Techniques for the measurement of gait and posture, and the standardization of results presentation; Studies of normal and pathological gait; Treatment of gait and postural abnormalities; Biomechanical and theoretical approaches to gait and posture; Mathematical models of joint and muscle mechanics; Neurological and musculoskeletal function in gait and posture; The evolution of upright posture and bipedal locomotion; Adaptations of carrying loads, walking on uneven surfaces, climbing stairs etc, running and performing other movements. Spinal biomechanics only if they are directly related to gait and/or dynamic posture and are of general interest to our readers; The effect of aging and development on gait and posture; Psychological and cultural aspects of gait; Patient education. Papers related to efficacy and mechanisms of gait analysis in decision making. The journal is primarily focused on dynamic aspects of human movement and postural control.Index bound in last issue of year.For details of the GCMAS, ESMAC, SIAMOC, ISPGR please visit their web sites through these links.

Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology

ISSN: 1050-6411
5 Year impact factor: 2.4
Impact factor: 2

Official journal of the International Society of Electrophysiology and KinesiologyJournal of Electromyography & Kinesiology is the primary source for outstanding original articles on the study of human movement from muscle contraction via its motor units and sensory system to integrated motion through mechanical and electrical detection techniques.As the official publication of the International Society of Electrophysiology and Kinesiology, the journal is dedicated to publishing the best work in all areas of electromyography and kinesiology, including: control of movement, muscle fatigue, muscle and nerve properties, joint biomechanics and electrical stimulation. Applications in rehabilitation, sports & exercise, motion analysis, ergonomics, alternative & complimentary medicine, measures of human performance and technical articles on electromyographic signal processing are welcome.Review articles should be discussed with the editor in chief before submission. Clinical articles assessing patients with different deficiencies are considered based on their originality and scientific merit while case studies are excluded.

Official Journal of Sports Medicine Australia (SMA) Affiliated Societies: Australasian Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine (AAPSM), Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA), Australian Physiotherapy Association - Sports Physiotherapy Australia (SPA), College of Sport Psychologists (COSP), Sports Dietitians Australia (SDA), and Australasian College of Sports & Exercise Physicians (ACSEP).The Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport is the official journal of Sports Medicine Australia (SMA) and is an an international refereed research publication covering all aspects of sport science and medicine.The Journal considers for publication Original research and Review papers in the sub-disciplines relating generally to the broad sports medicine and sports science fields: sports and exercise medicine, sport injury (including injury epidemiology and injury prevention), exercise therapy (using exercise and sport as an intervention, e. g. in rehabilitation from chronic disease), physiotherapy, podiatry, physical activity and health, sport science, biomechanics, exercise physiology, motor control and learning, sport and exercise psychology, sports nutrition, public health (as relevant to sport and exercise), and rehabilitation and injury management. Manuscripts with an interdisciplinary perspective with specific applications to sport and exercise and its interaction with health will also be considered.Only studies involving human subjects will be considered.The journal is available to SMA members and is available by separate subscription.This journal does not ordinarily have publication charges; however, authors can now opt to make their articles available to all (including non-subscribers) via the ScienceDirect platform. To provide open access, this journal has a publication fee which needs to be met by the authors or their research funders for each article published open access.

Performance Enhancement & Health

ISSN: 2211-2669
Impact factor: 2.9

Performance Enhancement & Health is a multi-disciplinary, international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes research on the enhancement of human functioning and health. Reflecting its multi-disciplinary scope, PEH publishes research that investigates performance enhancement and health through the lens of social sciences and humanities. PEH strives to cover different facets of performance enhancement, such as productivity, identity, social capital, and/or human functioning. PEH adopts a biopsychosocial approach to health. In turn, contributions may cover physical, mental, and/or social aspects of health.Performance Enhancement & Health welcomes papers, in English, on topics including, but not restricted to, the following:• Human enhancement drugs, novel psychoactive substances, traditional drugs, doping, pharmaceuticals and supplements • Sport, exercise and fitness • Drugs policy, anti-doping policy, harm reduction, and drug prevention, education and treatment • Athletes' health and wellbeing • Body shape and image, and bodily functions • Workplace and school performance • Quality of life, (anti-)aging, and lifestyle • Fatigue and injury prevention • Self-regulation of performance and human functioningPlease be aware that manuscripts only focused on pure sport science fall outside the scope of this journal. We will only consider these types of manuscripts (quantitative and/or qualitative) if they are also related to health. The same applies to other manuscripts that do not relate their focus to performance enhancement and/or health. Feel free to contact the Editor-in-Chief to discuss whether your article is within the scope of PEH.
