THE IJAHP ROAD AHEAD 

 

April 15, 2015 

 Welcome to our first issue in 2015!  
 

This first issue is being published earlier 

than our traditional mid-year deadline 

because we are increasing our publication 

frequency from twice a year to three times 

a year. More articles are being submitted to 

our journal and if we want to publish the 

selected ones on a timely basis, we need to 

increase our frequency. This suggests that 

our journal is becoming more mainstream 

in our seventh year of publication. 

 
As a way to thank our reviewers who have made this growth possible we have decided to 

recognize those reviewers who have been exemplary in terms of commitment and quality 

of their reviews during 2014-2015. The winners will be announced in our last issue 

this year. Also, as you may have noticed from the new logos we proudly show on the 
cover page of this issue, we are now indexed by Google Scholar, Microsoft Academic 

Search and the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ).  We are also applying to 

Academic OneFile (Gale), EBSCO, International Bibliography of the Social Sciences 

(IBSS), General OneFile (Gale) and Copernicus. We expect to be indexed in most, if not 

all of these databases, within the next two years. In addition, as previously announced, we 

are using DOIs for all our published articles, ensuring that IJAHP articles persist in the 

digital world.  

 

 In summary, we intend to keep IJAHP growing not only in number of articles but also in 

quality and recognition. However, this is only possible if we can count on your 

collaboration as reader, reviewer and author.  

 

Thank you for your assistance, and we are looking forward to our seventh year of 

publication serving the AHP/ANP community! 

 

Very sincerely,
