The Journal’s aim is to offer a publication of excellent articles that stimulate an exchange of ideas by promoting the theory, practice, and research in somatic psychology and body psychotherapy.</p> 82 <p>In addition to publishing articles by authors from the somatic psychotherapy community, the Journal invites contributions from a range of disciplines such as psychology, sociology, neuroscience, and other behavioral sciences, as well as medical and health professions in order to aptly reflect the interdisciplinary aspects of somatic psychology.</p> 83 <p>The Journal is an Open Access publication. Full issues and .pdfs of individual articles are freely available on the IBPJ website. We do not charge fees to authors. IBPJ publishes Open Access in order to broaden the dissemination of quality-controlled, peer-reviewed articles on body psychotherapy. </p> 84 <p><strong>Initial submissions</strong> should be emailed to the Editorial Team - <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a> - as a <em>Microsoft Word</em> attachment.</p> 85<p>When an article is received by the IBPJ, it is first previewed by the <a href="management.php">Editorial Team</a> and anonymized before it is sent out for consideration by three peer reviewers chosen for their particular and relevant expertise. The reviewers are given three weeks to complete their referee sheets and are asked to respond as soon as possible with their availability and interest. Additional reviewers may be selected as necessary. When all the reviews are received, they are then surveyed, anonymized, and collated by the Editorial Team for clarity.</p> 86<p>Please allow for a total turnaround time of six weeks. You will then hear from the <a href="management.php">Editorial Team</a> and be asked to revise your article per her directions and the constructive comments provided by our reviewers. The revision period should take one to three months as specified by the constraints of our publication deadlines. When this finalized version has been received, it will be copy edited for language and returned to you for final examination within the month before it is laid out. A .pdf copy of the laid out article will be provided and should be proofed one last time before that issue of the IBPJ is sent to the printer. No additional corrections may be made after these final examinations.</p> 87 <div class="top"><a href="#top">Back to top</a></div> 88 <h2 id="cfa">Criteria for Acceptance</h2> 89 <p>Types of articles that are considered for the Journal include the following: original research articles, research reports, review articles, new methodologies, theoretical articles, and letters to the editor.

The study results are reported and interpreted with implications for clinical use and recommendations for future studies. Original research articles also discuss results that allow for hypothesis elimination or reformulation, as well as report on the replication of previously published results. </p> 169 <p>Original research trials include issues related to the design and development of clinical trials (such as ethical considerations, study designs, measurements of outcome, and methods of analysis) or the results of clinical trials (including pilot, proof-of-concept, safety, and efficacy trials). The results of the research is reported, interpreted, and may include a discussion of possible implications. <br> 170 The International Body Psychotherapy Journal accepts quantitative, qualitative and mixed-method studies. </p> 171 <h3>Quantitative Research: </h3> 172 <ol type="a"> 173 <li>empirical studies (without topic restrictions e.g., somatic psychology, psychopathology, education, pre- and peri-natal psychology, mindfulness )</li> 174 <li>pilot studies</li> 175 <li>clinical trials</li> 176 <li>experimental studies</li> 177 <li>correlational studies</li> 178 <li>preventative studies</li> 179 <li>meta-analysis</li> 180 <li>replication studies whether successful or failed, applied or fundamental, as long as appropriately powered</li> 181 </ol> 182 <h3>Qualitative Research:</h3> 183 <ol type="a"> 184 <li>clinical case studies </li> 185 <li>phenomenological studies</li> 186 <li>grounded theory</li> 187 <li>ethnographies</li> 188 <li>artistic research </li> 189 </ol> 190 <h3>New Methodologies </h3> 191 <p>A methods article presents a cutting-edge technique that opens new avenues for experimental investigation of important issues in a field. Method manuscripts should include in the form of a brief statement: the experimental objectives, the limitations of current techniques, and a detailed protocol of the new technique. In addition, there should be data to demonstrate the power of the technique. Both quantitative and qualitative original methodologies are invited. </p> 192 <h3>Theoretical Articles </h3> 193 <p>A theoretical article presents an argument, synthesis, hypothesis, or theory that is based in the extant literature of somatic psychology. Theoretical articles should be closely tied to empirical data and provide novel insights into a significant question or issue. In addition, the argument or theory put forth should lead to testable predictions.</p> 194 <h3>Review Articles </h3> 195 <p>Review articles cover topics that have seen significant development or progress of somatic psychology in recent years with comprehensive depth, balanced perspective, intellectual insight, and broad general interest. Reviews do n
195ot merely recap the literature, they critique fundamental concepts, issues, and problems that define the field. </p> 196 <ol type="a"> 197 <li>general reviews <br> 198 provide a synthesis of an area of study involving body psychotherapy; systematic reviews and meta-analyses are preferred</li> 199 <li>critiques <br> 200 are focused and provocative, followed by a number of invited commentaries, and conclude with a remark from the main author</li> 201 <li>viewpoint articles <br> 202 contain research-based commentary, preferably on currently relevant issues; the article should be based on a succinct and balanced summary of existing research on the issue</li> 203 <li>conceptual papers </li> 204 </ol> 205 <div class="top"><a href="#top">Back to top</a></div> 206 <h3>Perspective and Opinion Articles</h3> 207 <p>A perspective article presents a viewpoint on an important area of research. A perspective article focuses on a specific field or subfield and discusses current advances and future directions; it may add personal insight and opinion to a field.</p> 208 <p>Opinion articles allow researchers to publish their opinions on the interpretation of facts, value of methods used, weaknesses and strengths of any scientific theory, or any topic relevant to the field of research.
