Reference excerpt

The Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology is a peer-reviewed medical journal published by Lippincott Williams & Wilkins covering clinical psychopharmacology. It was founded by Richard I. Shader, MD in 1981 as the first journal of an international scope devoted solely to clinical psychopharmacology. David J. Greenblatt, MD served as Co-Editor-In-Chief. Drs. Shader and Greenblatt remained at the helm of the journal until both retired at the end of 2020. Anthony J. Rothschild, MD became JCP's new Editor-in-Chief in January 2021. The first issue of the journal was published in January 1981. It included articles on several psychopharmacological studies, review articles, a brief report of clinicians' observations, an abstract, a historical perspective article, a book review, a forensic update, and a "Question the Experts" section. According to the first editorial by the Editors-in-Chief, this format was chosen "to create a "one stop" journal in which clinicians and students could find a variety of avenues to learning." The journal has since published bimonthly issues with a wide range of articles reporting on clinical trials and studies, side effects, drug interactions, overdose management, pharmacogenetics, pharmacokinetics, and psychiatric effects of non-psychiatric drugs. Subscriptions to Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology are managed through Lippincott Williams & Wilkins online store.

Abstracting and indexing According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal's 2020 impact factor was 3.153. In addition, the journal is abstracted and indexed in the Science Citation Index and PubMed/MEDLINE.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology

In research: Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Academic journals established in 1981, Bimonthly journals, English-language journals, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
