1. Contributions from any discipline that further clinical knowledge of the mental life and behaviour of children are welcomed. Papers need to clearly draw out the clinical implications for mental health practitioners. Papers are published in English. As an international journal, submissions are welcomed from any country. Contributions should be of a standard that merits presentation before an international readership. Papers may assume any of the following forms: Original Articles; Review Articles; Innovations in Practice; Narrative Matters; Debate Articles.
CAMH considers the fact that services are looking at treating young adults up until the age of 25, with the evidence that brains continue to develop until the age of 25, as well as the fact that a lot of issues that affect young adults and students are also relevant and topical to older adolescents. CAMH offers a discretionary approach and will take into consideration papers that extend into young adulthood, if they are pertinent developmentally to the younger population and contribute further to a developmental perspective across adolescence and early adult years.
Authors are asked to remember that CAMH is an international journal and therefore clarification should be provided for any references that are made in submitted papers to the practice within the authors' own country. This is to ensure that the meaning is clearly understandable for our diverse readership. Authors should make their papers as broadly applicable as possible for a global audience.
Original Articles: Original Articles make an original contribution to empirical knowledge, to the theoretical understanding of the subject, or to the development of clinical research and practice.
Review Articles: These papers offer a critical perspective on a key body of current research relevant to child and adolescent mental health. The journal requires the pre-registration of review protocols on any publicly accessible platform (e.g. The International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews, or PROSPERO).
Innovations in Practice: These papers report on any new and innovative development that could have a major impact on evidence-based practice, intervention and service models.
Narrative Matters: These papers describe important topics and issues relevant to those working in child and adolescent mental health but considered from within the context and framework of the Humanities and Social Sciences.
Debate Articles: These papers express opposing points of view or opinions, highlighting current evidence-based issues, or discuss differences in clinical practice
Letters to the Editor: These are short articles that offer readers the opportunity to respond to articles published in CAMH. Letters must only discuss issues directly relevant to the content of the original article such as to add context, correction, offer a different interpretation, or extend the findings.
2. Submission of a paper to Child and Adolescent Mental Health will be held to imply that it represents an original submission, not previously published; that it is not being considered for publication elsewhere; and that if accepted for publication it will not be published elsewhere without the consent of the Editors.
