Description
The American Journal of Public Health (AJPH) is dedicated to original work in research, research methods, and program evaluation in the field of public health. This prestigious journal also regularly publishes authoritative editorials and commentaries and serves as a forum for the analysis of health policy. The stated mission of the Journal is "to advance public health research, policy, practice, and education." All published papers have undergone rigorous peer review (only one out of five submitted papers is accepted for publication). Each month, the nation's most influential public health professionals turn to AJPH for the most current, authoritative, in-depth information in the field. The goals of both the online and the print versions of the Journal, published monthly by the American Public Health Association (APHA), are To publish the best scientific research in the field of public health To serve as a forum for diverse viewpoints on major public health issues and policies To promote diverse public health practice models To increase public and professional understanding of public health problems and their solutions through delivery channels relevant to different audiences and their needs To work in concert with the 3 main priorities of the American Public Health Association, namely to develop universal coverage, eliminate health disparities, and rebuild the public health infrastructure.
