Aims and Scope (from publisher):
The Journal of Appalachian Health features research reports from a wide range of sources, as well as shorter articles on preliminary research. All research articles are peer-reviewed. Other types of articles that are not peer-reviewed include editorials; commentary; book reviews; letters to the editor; announcements; "Notes from the Field," a section of short news and noteworthy contributions from federal, state, and local agencies and nonprofit organizations to announce program activities, grants, and research funding availability, new programs or news from those organizations about their activities that affect Appalachian health; and “Voices from the Hollow,” a section that will highlight work, regardless of its source, being done in the community to improve the health of the population.
Many research articles appearing in JAH will be accompanied by an independently-developed commentary, selected by the editor, that highlights the implications of the research.
The Journal of Appalachian Health will be produced initially on a quarterly basis, increasing in production as the submissions increase. The Journal’s goal is to maintain a rapid-cycle dissemination vehicle that publishes successful peer-reviewed articles within 8-10 weeks of submission.
