Psychiatric Research and Clinical Practice

Psychiatric Research and Clinical Practice (PRCP) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal from the American Psychiatric Association that offers a high-profile publishing destination for submissions that build upon the psychiatric knowledge base and bring research findings closer to clinical utility through deeper investigation.

Submissions on all aspects of mental and behavioral health to inform the field from bench to bedside are welcome. PRCP seeks to occupy that place between research and clinical utility, leaning toward clinical utility through publication of replication studies and features that show how new scientific knowledge can inform clinical practice. The journal will also feature “Clinical Pearls”—accounts by clinicians using the findings from the most up-to-date clinical research to help solve problems commonly confronted in clinical practice.

PRCP maintains the rigorous standards of APA’s scholarly publications while providing an essential resource for today’s practicing physicians. Published in accordance with open-access principles, PRCP makes all of its content immediately available for free—the reach one wants from an established and respected publisher.
