The International Journal of Nursing Studies (IJNS) provides a forum for original research and scholarship about health care delivery, organisation, management, workforce, policy and research methods relevant to nursing, midwifery and other health related professions. The IJNS aims to support evidence informed policy and practice by publishing research, systematic and other scholarly reviews, critical discussion, and commentary of the highest standard.The journal particularly welcomes studies that aim to evaluate and understand complex health care interventions and health policies and which employ the most rigorous designs and methods appropriate for the research question of interest. The journal also seeks to advance the quality of research by publishing methodological papers introducing or elaborating on analytic techniques, measures, and research methods.The journal has been publishing original peer-reviewed articles of interest to the international health care community since 1963, making it one of the longest standing repositories of scholarship in this field. The IJNS offers authors the benefits of:? A highly respected journal in its field with consistently high impact? Indexed in major databases: PubMed, Medline, Thomson Reuters - Science Citation Index, Scopus, Thomson Reuters - Social Science Citation Index, CINAHL and the BNI (British Nursing Index).? A truly global readership? Highly efficient editorial processes: average time from submission to first decision of 4 weeks? Rapid initial screening for suitability and editorial interest? Excellent peer reviewers drawn from a range of health service research disciplines? Final online publication as soon as 2 weeks post-acceptance.The IJNS endorses the Equator Network (http://www.equator-network.org/) an international initiative that seeks to improve reliability and value of research literature in health care by promoting transparent and accurate reporting of studies. We ask our authors to make use of appropriate reporting guidelines to ensure excellence in scientific reporting. Guidelines for authors can be accessed at http://ees.elsevier.com/ijns.

國際護理研究雜志(IJNS)提供了一個論壇，為原創(chuàng)的研究和學術(shù)的衛(wèi)生保健提供，組織，管理，勞動力，政策和研究方法相關(guān)的護理，助產(chǎn)士和其他健康相關(guān)的專業(yè)。IJNS旨在通過出版研究報告、系統(tǒng)和其他學術(shù)評論、批判性討論和最高標準的評論，支持證據(jù)知情的政策和實踐。該雜志特別歡迎旨在評估和了解復雜的衛(wèi)生保健干預措施和衛(wèi)生政策的研究，這些研究采用最嚴格的設(shè)計和方法，適用于感興趣的研究問題。該雜志還試圖通過發(fā)表介紹或闡述分析技術(shù)、措施和研究方法的方法學論文來提高研究質(zhì)量。自1963年以來，該雜志一直發(fā)表國際衛(wèi)生保健界感興趣的經(jīng)過同行評議的原創(chuàng)文章，使其成為該領(lǐng)域歷史最悠久的學術(shù)寶庫之一。IJNS為作者提供了以下好處:?在其領(lǐng)域內(nèi)享有很高聲譽的期刊，具有持續(xù)的高影響力?主要數(shù)據(jù)庫索引:PubMed、Medline、湯森路透-科學引文索引、Scopus、湯森路透-社會科學引文索引、CINAHL和BNI(英國護理索引)。?真正的全球讀者?高效的編輯流程:從提交到第一次決定的平均時間為4周?快速篩選適合性和編輯興趣?來自多個衛(wèi)生服務研究領(lǐng)域的優(yōu)秀同行評審?驗收后2周內(nèi)完成最終在線出版。IJNS支持赤道網(wǎng)絡(http://www.equator-network.org/)，這是一項國際倡議，旨在通過促進透明和準確的研究報告，提高衛(wèi)生保健研究文獻的可靠性和價值。我們要求我們的作者使用適當?shù)膱蟾鏈蕜t，以確保科學報告的卓越性。作者指南可訪問http://ees.elsevier.com/ijns。
