Journal of Anxiety Disorders

ISSN: 0887-6185
5 Year impact factor: 7
Impact factor: 4.8

Journal of Anxiety Disorders is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to advancing the understanding, assessment, treatment, and prevention of anxiety disorders. The journal welcomes submissions on all aspects of anxiety disorders included in the current diagnostic classification system as well as on disorders formerly categorized as anxiety disorders (e.g., obsessive-compulsive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder). Topics of interest related to anxiety disorders include behavioral, cognitive and biological assessments; diagnosis and classification; neuroscience and genetics; sociocultural considerations; mechanisms and comorbidities; epidemiology; psychosocial and psychopharmacologica... treatments; prevention; implementation science; theoretical advancement; and policy. Methodologies can include clinical trials, experimental paradigms, intensive longitudinal designs, mixed methods or qualitative approaches, among others. Review articles that adhere to rigorous, recommended guidelines, are preferably pre-registered, and significantly contribute to advancing knowledge in the field are also appropriate for submission. Theoretical advancements are also appropriate for submission.The mission of the journal is three-fold. One goal is to promote translational work in anxiety disorders research, so that we can effectively bridge the gap between basic science, clinical research, implementation, practice, and policy. Another goal is to encourage interdisciplinary research integrating perspectives from diverse fields (e.g., psychology, psychiatry, neuroscience, genetics, social work, public health) and from different stakeholders (e.g., researchers, providers, funders, policy makers) to foster a comprehensive understanding of and interventions for anxiety disorders. The last goal is to enhance a global focus, welcoming research on diverse populations and across cultural contexts.

Journal of Behavior Therapy and Experimental Psychiatry

ISSN: 0005-7916
5 Year impact factor: 2
Impact factor: 1.7

A Journal of Experimental PsychopathologyThe Journal welcomes contributions to the understanding and treatment of psychopathology. Such contributions may stem from various theoretical perspectives. The Journal primarily focuses on (quasi)experimental tests of psychological approaches to psychopathology, though contributions from medicine, biology, sociology, or epidemiology may be considered. The same holds for non-experimental approaches (e.g., prospective approaches), which may occasionally be published if deemed relevant for the field of experimental psychopathology. Papers to be published generally focus on:Theoretically or clinically relevant differences between specific patient groups and other groups, if experimentally tested;(Transdiagnos... mechanisms that cause, perpetuate or reduce disorders;Diagnostic or therapeutic proceduresParticipan... in the studies may be patients, healthy subjects, or animals, depending on the relevance of the subject characteristics for the question to be answered. We encourage the investigation of transdiagnostic constructs. Relatedly, we strongly encourage studies testing hypotheses on characteristics of a disorder to not only include a non-patient control group, but also at least one appropriate clinical control group, to assess the specificity of the effect. We cannot guarantee acceptance of studies missing an appropriate clinical control group.Pre-registrati... of all studies is strongly encouraged and justification of statistical power required. We ask authors who submit studies that were not pre-registered to provide a motivated justification in their cover letter. Clinical trials (RCTs and others) should be registered in an official trial register and the registration number should be reported. These studies should include a flow diagram according to the most recent CONSORT guidelines and a CONSORT checklist should accompany the submission. See http://www.consort-s... for the guidelines and forms. Any changes in the submitted study as compared to the pre-registered study (e.g., intended sample size, primary and secondary outcome variables, method) should be stated explicitly in the manuscript.Case studies, open trials, and pilot studies may be considered for publication in the Journal if they are unusually innovative Consecutive case series with appropriate designs (i.e., contrasting at least two conditions; e.g. multiple baseline design) and appropriate statistical analyses are considered for publication.Theoreti... contributions on topics relevant to the field of experimental psychopathology are also considered as well as systematic reviews and meta-analyses, given that they meet the appropriate guidelines for reporting. Replications are essential in science and are, to the present editors' opinion, often undervalued. Short reports of attempts to replicate experimental studies, whether successful or failed, and whether applied or fundamental, are considered for publication, if appropriately powered. The maximum number of words is 2500 for these reports.All submissions will first be screened on the degree to which they match the Aims and Scope of the Journal.
