We are delighted to present the inaugural Frontiers in Psychiatry 'Women in Psychiatry” series of article collections.
At present, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields, and STEM research in particular. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers.
Therefore, Frontiers in Psychiatry is proud to offer this platform to promote the work of women scientists, across all fields of Psychiatry.
The work presented here highlights the diversity of research performed across the entire breadth of Psychiatry research and presents advances in theory, experiment, and methodology with applications to compelling problems.
Women in Psychiatry 2022; Social Psychiatry and Psychiatric Rehabilitation.
This Research Topic aims to promote knowledge about the factors that may influence mental health outcomes for women, particularly those with more complex mental health problems. We are interested in papers reporting on studies that focus on gender in psychiatric rehabilitation services, those that investigate or address social factors that may influence mental health outcomes for women, and those that address the relationship between social, biological and psychological factors affecting women’s mental health.
Original research of any type as well as review papers on the topic are welcome, including descriptive, epidemiological, intervention or other methodologies. We will also consider case studies of relevant interventions, but we will not consider individual patient based case histories.
Please note: to be considered for this collection, the first or last author should be a researcher who identifies as a woman.
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
