It aims to contribute to the advancement of the science and practice of nursing and interrelated disciplines worldwide by the international dissemination of sound information based on rigorous methods of research and scholarship. The journal welcomes submissions of original research papers, critical reviews of the literature, concise papers providing evidence on topical issues, and will also publish book reviews. Authors should highlight the significance of their work to nursing and midwifery theory, practice and education and the organisation of care. They should also identify how this might have relevance to countries other than their own, including other disciplines. All published papers containing research data are peer-reviewed. Published in January, February, March, May, July, August, September and November Publication information: International Journal of Nursing Studies (ISSN 0020-7489). For 2004, volume 41 is scheduled for publication.
