BJPsych Open invites submissions from the research, practice and policy communities. It provides a more flexible journal format, free from the page limits and constraints of paper-based publications, and the possibility of publishing research protocols; a variety of review types with systematic reviews preferred; case reports; as well as policy and analysis of topical practice and research findings.
In due course, BJPsych Open will publish themed issues to enable more specialist areas of practice and research from all around the world to be shared across research communities worldwide. We will consider direct submissions as well as papers that are cascaded from our sister journals.
