Manuscript Editing for Irish Journal of Psychological Medicine Articles
Since 1982, the Irish Journal of Psychological Medicine has served as an international forum for research on the science and practice of psychiatry. It brings original research to national and international readers to improve clinical practice and the development of mental health services. Cambridge University Press publishes it four times a year for the College of Psychiatrists of Ireland. Its editor-in-chief is at University College Dublin and Mater Misericordiae University Hospital.
Original papers, reviews, audits, historical papers, case reports, and perspectives run up to 4,000 words. Short reports run up to 2,000, editorials 1,500, and narrative medicine essays 1,000 to 1,500. Limits exclude the title, abstract, tables, figures, and references. References follow the Harvard author-date system, with author names in bold and journal titles in full. Original papers, short reports, reviews, audits, and historical papers carry a structured abstract of up to 250 words. Keywords number three to ten, ideally MeSH terms. Papers carry no more than five tables and figures, each with alt text. Review is double-blind, with identifying details only in a separate title page. That title page carries competing interests, ethical standards, and financial support statements. Off the Grid Editing applies the journal's Harvard conventions and writes numbers one to ten as words. Submissions go through ScholarOne.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for the Irish Journal of Psychological Medicine
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Irish Journal of Psychological Medicine.
Cambridge's author instructions cover article types, references, and the title page. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
For how we edit clinical research, see journal article and essay editing, and turn to academic proofreading for the final read. If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. We also prepare articles for the New Zealand Journal of Psychology and the Journal of Evidence-Based Psychotherapies.
