Content: Military Psychology is the bimonthly journal of Division 19 (Society for Military Psychology) of the American Psychological Association. The journal seeks to facilitate the scientific development of military psychology by encouraging communication between researchers and practitioners.
The domain of military psychology is the conduct of research or practice of psychological principles within a military environment. The journal publishes behavioral science research articles having military applications in the areas of clinical and health psychology, training and human factors, manpower and personnel, social and organizational systems, and testing and measurement. Topics of major concern to military psychology will be covered in special journal issues.
Military Psychology is international in scope, and the editors encourage submission of articles that address research being carried out in a variety of national settings.
Contributions will be considered for publication in the following categories:
Research Articles: Reports of empirical research.
Notes: Brief articles describing work that is largely confirmatory, advances in knowledge arising as by-products of broader studies, or new research techniques and methodologies.
Reviews: Scholarly integrations of individual areas of empirical research.
Communications: Information on policies and trends that affect the support and direction of research in military psychology.
Clinical Practice: Case studies, theoretical articles, program development evaluations, and research articles of direct application for military psychologists in clinical settings.
Peer Review Policy: Once a manuscript is processed it is assigned a manuscript control number and given to an Action Editor (one of the Associate Editors) for editorial oversight. The Action Editor will oversee the review process, obtain review from two subject matter experts, compile reviewer comments and prepare an editorial recommendation for the manuscript. The Editor-in-Chief processes the editorial recommendation, makes a final decision and communicates with the author(s).
