Rehabilitation Psychology is a quarterly peer-reviewed journal that
publishes articles in furtherance of the mission of Division 22
(Rehabilitation Psychology) of the American Psychological Association and to
advance the science and practice of rehabilitation psychology.

Rehabilitation psychologists consider the entire network of biological,
psychological, social, environmental, and political factors that affect the
functioning of persons with disabilities or chronic illness. Given the
breadth of rehabilitation psychology, the journal's scope is broadly
defined. Suitable submissions include papers describing experimental
investigations, survey research, evaluations of specific interventions,
outcome studies, historical perspectives, relevant public policy issues,
conceptual/theoretical formulations with implications for clinical practice,
reviews of empirical research, detailed case studies, and professional
issues.

Papers will be evaluated for their importance to the field, scientific
rigor, novelty, suitability for the journal, and clarity of writing. The
primary determinant of editorial decisions is whether the paper enlarges
both the understanding of important psychological problems in rehabilitation
and the capacity to offer effective assistance in ameliorating  those
problems.
