articles are published, without barriers to access, in quarterly volumes

Reviews, commentaries, chronicles and editorials
(author-initiated or jHASE-commissioned) |
|
|
 |
jHASE
encourages
leaders in the applied HIV/AIDS Epidemiology field and experts in particular
relevant areas to submit discursive articles to the journal. jHASE hereby
declares that it has an interest in a wide range of particular subject areas
within the field and encourages authors to suggest commissioned works,
including a series of related articles which may make up a monograph. The
distinct categories of articles below indicate that such articles are
judged by standards distinct from those used for the mainstream research
articles.
Examples of article types within this category are as follows: |
| |
|
|
Editorials |
These are short articles written by members of the Editorial Board
describing policy issues relevant to the journal. For example, jHASE has
written an editorial for the launch of the journal explaining why it was
started. Editorials are usually 1000-1500 words. These can also be used
to highlight new article types launched in the journal and any policy
changes. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
Review articles |
Comprehensive,
authoritative, reviews of the state-of-the art or literature on any subject within the journal’s scope.
In addition to reviews initiated by authors, opinion leaders that have been invited by the Editorial Board
may write these articles. They have an educational aim and are 2000-3000
words. These may be broken down into topical types such as basic science
and clinical reviews, ethics, legislative and regulatory affairs,
pro/con debates, equipment, textbook and software reviews and thematic
series to highlight/summarize specific topics in the field of applied HIV/AIDS
Epidemiology. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
Commentaries |
Short, focused and opinionated articles on any subject within the
journal’s scope. These articles are usually related to a contemporary
issue, such as recent research findings, and are often written by
opinion leaders invited by the Editorial Board. They focus on specific
issues and are about 1500 words. The commentaries section may be broken
down into several types including ethics, technology, research-related,
review-related, general interest, debates, and reviews of recently
published papers from this and other journals in the field. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
Hypotheses |
Short articles presenting an untested original hypothesis backed solely
by previously published results rather than any new evidence. They
should outline significant progress in thinking that would also be
testable, and be about 1500 words. |
| |
|
| |
|
|
Debate articles |
Present
an argument that is not essentially based on practical research. Debate
articles can report on all aspects of the subject including Public Health law, regulations,
sociological and
ethical aspects related to HIV/AIDS Surveillance, applied HIV Epidemiology research
and Public Health practice. |
