- evidence-based treatments including individual, family and group therapies derived from a range of models including psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural and systemic, and from a range of disciplines including nursing, psychology, social work, psychiatry, occupational therapy, art therapy etc.
- descriptions of psychotherapy and first person accounts of psychosis and of experiences using mental health services

- conceptual analysis and ethical considerations related to diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation issues
Psychosis: Psychological, Social and Integrative Approaches fills an important gap in mental health literature, namely research focused on the psychological treatments of psychosis (e.g. cognitive-behavior therapy, psychodynamic therapy, family therapy etc.) and the psycho-social causes of psychosis (e.g. poverty, drug abuse, child abuse and neglect, distressed families, urban living, discrimination, rape, war combat etc.).
The journal publishes papers on both quantitative research (e.g. rigorously designed outcome studies and epidemiological surveys) and qualitative research (e.g. case studies of therapy, first-person accounts of psychosis and experiences of people with psychosis in the mental health system), as well as papers focusing on conceptual and ethical issues.
