Manuscript Editing for Journal of Aggression, Maltreatment & Trauma Articles
The Journal of Aggression, Maltreatment & Trauma publishes current research and practice on physical and emotional abuse, interpersonal aggression, maltreatment, and trauma. Its topics include child maltreatment, partner abuse, sexual assault, and aggression at work or school, along with prevention, intervention, and help for victims. Since 2009 it has incorporated the topics of the Journal of Psychological Trauma and the Journal of Emotional Abuse. Taylor & Francis publishes it, and the Institute on Violence, Abuse and Trauma in San Diego edits it.
Articles follow APA 7th edition standards, and most references date from the past ten years. The abstract runs up to 250 words, with no more than eight keywords. Review is double-anonymous, so authors send two copies of the manuscript, one with author details and one without. Our editors apply APA 7 throughout and check that each reference matches its citation. Submissions go through the Taylor & Francis Submission Portal.
