Call for Papers - Understanding Nonbinary and Gender Diverse Youth

Nonbinary gender identities are prominent among gender diverse youth, having increased significantly over the last decade. Leading theories in support of gender diversity argue that greater acceptance, the availability of more descriptive and inclusive language, and diverse sociocultural forces are behind the apparent rise in transgender youth. Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health is inviting submissions for a special issue on Understanding Nonbinary and Gender Diverse Youth. Articles should focus on attempts to deepen our understanding of non-binary gender identity, and we welcome manuscripts of diverse methods including quantitative and qualitative clinical research, as well as systematic approaches to reviews. We also encourage submissions from gender diverse researchers whose personal experiences provide invaluable insights in the study of this area. Interested authors are welcome to reach out to the guest editor, Dr. Jame Agapoff (they/them), at JAgapoff@dop.hawaii.edu, to propose a manuscript and receive some initial input on suitability for this special issue. Submissions will be considered through 2023.

Call for Papers - Stress, Trauma and Resilience

Childhood stress and trauma remains a global problem. The last two years are a clear impetus to continue the study of how early stress and trauma impact development, and to explore innovative strategies for fostering resilience. This has always been true – yet, COVID has made it more apparent, and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine has only increased the urgency of work in this area. Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health is inviting submissions for a special issue on stress, trauma and resilience. We would welcome manuscripts that explore these related constructs using diverse methods – including empirical quantitative and qualitative methods, as well as systematic approaches to reviews. We further welcome diversity in scope and focus, and would consider reports of basic science research, clinical research, and population level research. The goal of the special issue is to further the science of stress, trauma and resilience from a global perspective, and we are especially interested in diversity of population and country of origin in both research focus and authorship. Manuscripts that focus on the related topics of wellness and burnout are not suitable for this issue, and we would discourage submissions that provide only correlational accounts between measures of stress, trauma, resilience and specific mental health or psychosocial outcomes. On the other hand, work describing preventative strategies would be of particular interest. Interested authors are welcome to reach out to the editors-in-chief to propose a manuscript and receive some initial input on suitability for this special issue. Submission deadline: 30 November 2022
