JCCP publishes original contributions on the following topics: the development, validity, and use of techniques of diagnosis and treatment of disordered behavior; studies of a variety of populations that have clinical interest, including but not limited to medical patients, ethnic minorities, persons with serious mental illness, and community samples; studies that have a cross-cultural or demographic focus and are of interest for treating behavior disorders; studies of personality and of its assessment and development where these have a clear bearing on problems of clinical dysfunction and treatment; studies of gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation that have a clear bearing on diagnosis, assessment, and treatment; studies of psychosocial aspects of health behaviors. Studies that focus on populations that fall anywhere within the lifespan are considered. JCCP welcomes submissions on treatment and prevention in all areas of clinical and clinical–health psychology and especially on topics that appeal to a broad clinical–scientist and practitioner audience. JCCP encourages the submission of theory–based interventions, studies that investigate mechanisms of change, and studies of the effectiveness of treatments in real-world settings. Studies on the following topics will be considered if they have clear implications for clinical research and practice: epidemiology; use of psychological services; health care economics for behavioral disorders.
