History

edit

The Annual Review of Clinical Psychology was first published in 2005. Though Annual Reviews already published the Annual Review of Psychology, which included a chapter of clinical psychology in each volume, the publisher decided that the field was large enough and rapidly expanding to justify its own journal.[4] Its founding editor was Susan Nolen-Hoeksema.[5] Upon Nolen-Hoeksema's death in 2013, Tyrone D. Cannon and Thomas Widiger became co-editors.[6] As of 2024, Cannon became editor.[7] Though it was initially in publication with a print volume, it is now only published electronically.[8]

Scope and indexing

edit

The Annual Review of Clinical Psychology defines its scope as covering significant developments in the field of clinical psychology. Included subfields are theory, research, and use of psychological principles for mental disorders such as substance use, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, personality disorders, and cognitive disorders. Other included topics are the diagnosis and treatment of such disorders, as well as relevant social policy and legal issues.[3]

It is abstracted and indexed in Scopus, Science Citation Index Expanded, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Academic Search, among others.[9]

Editorial processes

edit

The Annual Review of Clinical Psychology is helmed by the editor or the co-editors. The editor is assisted by the editorial committee, which includes associate editors, regular members, and occasionally guest editors. Guest members participate at the invitation of the editor, and serve terms of one year. All other members of the editorial committee are appointed by the Annual Reviews board of directors and serve five-year terms. The editorial committee determines which topics should be included in each volume and solicits reviews from qualified authors.[10] Unsolicited manuscripts are not accepted. Peer review of accepted manuscripts is undertaken by the editorial committee.[11]
