Publishing and editorship

The journal is indexed in Index Medicus, MEDLINE, and PubMed from 1981 onwards.[2]

Among the first major publishing projects, in the wake of the launch of the journal, was a series of symposiums on chosen subjects in the field of psychiatry. Each volume was assigned to an editor. In 1978 the journal published a symposium on obesity under the editorship of Albert J. Stunkard.[3] In 1979 the journal published a second volume in liaison psychiatry, under the editorship of Chase Patterson Kimball.[4]

This trend in publishing continued in the 1980s. 1980 saw the release of volume 3 in the symposium on sexuality, under the editorship of Jon K. Meyer,[5] and in 1981 followed a volume on borderline disorders, edited by Michael H. Stone.[6]

In 1984 the journal published a symposium on multiple personality under the editorship of Bennett G. Braun,[7] and the following year saw the publication of two volumes, first a symposium on Self-Destructive Behavior, edited by Alec Roy,[8] then a volume on Child Psychiatry, edited by J.H Beitchman.[9]
