INSTRUCTIONS
TO AUTHORS
Pakistan Journal
of Social and Clinical Psychology (PJSCP) is a research journal
published on quarterly basis by the Department of Psychology,
Government College University, Lahore. The PJSCP provides a forum
for dissemination of findings related to social and clinical areas
of Psychology, although not totally excluding other fields. The
journal aims to enhance the understanding of social, environmental
and cultural factors in the etiology and outcomes of mental health
problems as affecting individuals and society. The journal welcomes
articles from psychology, psychiatry, sociology and other
disciplines allied to mental health and well-being. We publish both
quantitative and qualitative research and give both approaches equal
importance. Comprehensive and up-to-date review articles are also
considered for publication. In addition to regular length articles,
brief reports are also published for maximum utilization of the
space. The PJSCP follows the blind-reviewing policy.
