Published articles facilitate the integration of theory, research, and practice and have specific implications for a variety of practice settings. Articles are written and reviewed by international scholars across the globe and include theory development, philosophical and concept analyses, quantitative and qualitative research (including theory-based instrument development), and state-of-the-art reviews. Papers crossing disciplinary boundaries in theory and/or methodologies are particularly encouraged.<br/><br/></td></tr></table>
