Journal Title：Social Psychiatry And Psychiatric Epidemiology

Social Psychiatry and Psychiatric Epidemiology is intended to provide a medium for the prompt publication of scientific contributions concerned with all aspects of the epidemiology of psychiatric disorders - social, biological and genetic.

In addition, the journal has a particular focus on the effects of social conditions upon behaviour and the relationship between psychiatric disorders and the social environment. Contributions may be of a clinical nature provided they relate to social issues, or they may deal with specialised investigations in the fields of social psychology, sociology, anthropology, epidemiology, health service research, health economies or public mental health. We will publish papers on cross-cultural and trans-cultural themes. We do not publish case studies or small case series. While we will publish studies of reliability and validity of new instruments of interest to our readership, we will not publish articles reporting on the performance of established instruments in translation.

Both original work and review articles may be submitted.

社会精神病学和精神病学流行病学旨在为迅速发表与精神疾病流行病学各个方面（社会、生物学和遗传）有关的科学贡献提供一种媒介。

此外，该杂志特别关注社会条件对行为的影响以及精神疾病与社会环境之间的关系。贡献可以是临床性质的，只要它们与社会问题相关，或者它们可以涉及社会心理学、社会学、人类学、流行病学、卫生服务研究、卫生经济或公共心理健康领域的专门调查。我们将发表关于跨文化和跨文化主题的论文。我们不发布案例研究或小型案例系列。虽然我们将发表读者感兴趣的新工具的可靠性和有效性研究，但我们不会发表文章报告现有工具在翻译中的表现。

原创作品和评论文章均可提交。
