JIEPH publishes: research, outbreak investigation reports, short communications, briefs, reviews, letters to the editor, commentaries, editorials, opinions, perspectives, workshop reports, supplements and conference proceedings on interventional epidemiology and public health. Authors are encouraged to review the article categories section for details. Manuscripts submitted to JIEPH are initially screened by editors for adherence to the journal's instructions and scientific soundness. At this stage, the corresponding author can be contacted by the editorial office for clarification or the manuscript can be rejected. Once this initial screening is completed, manuscripts are sent to three reviewers. If appropriate, a statistical reviewer is involved. After the review reports are submitted, the JIEPH editorial office assesses the reviewers’ comments and makes a decision which is communicated to the corresponding author. If the editorial office chooses to publish the article, the relevant reviewer comments are sent to the corresponding author and a revision, if necessary, is requested. Once the revised version is accepted by the JIEPH editorial office, the manuscript is copyedited and a proof is sent to the corresponding author. Once the corresponding author approves the

  • Public Health Information Retrieval from Non-Health Databases
    Partnership: the Canadian Journal of Library and Information Practice and Research, vol. 7, no. 1 (2012) Public Health Information Retrieval from Non-health Databases Thumeka Mgwigwi Reference and Liaison Librarian York University [email protected] Abstract This study examines the extent to which non-health databases index public health and health care related journals. The field of public health and health care is unique and multidisciplinary and therefore presents some challenges for researchers looking for published literature in the field. These challenges compel researchers to look beyond databases such as Medline and search a wide array of databases in various fields. A list of journal titles from non-health databases in various fields was used to compare title coverage in Ovid Medline to other databases. The databases used in this study were Canadian Business & Current Affairs (CBCA) Complete which is a multidisciplinary database; ABI/Inform covering business literature; Public Affairs Information Services (PAIS); EconLit; PsycInfo focusing only on public health journals and eliminating psychology specific journals; Sociological Abstracts; and Women's Studies International. Keywords public health; health care; information retrieval; health databases Introduction The field of public health and health care is a unique and multidisciplinary field that presents some challenges for researchers looking for published literature. Some researchers and health care professionals may rely on Medline and Cumulated Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) for their research, not appreciating other potentially useful databases that index public health and health care related journals. The public health and health care field draws literature from other disciplines such as administration, law, public policy, business, economics, etc.

Abstract This thesis addressed a cluster of issues related to risk and the pregnant woman’s decision making in clinical practice and research. In terms of clinical practice, the minimal risk concept - a low risk standard codified in research ethics regulations - was applied to clinicians’ information provision to the patient. As clinicians must discuss a variety of health risks, minimal risk standards may be useful as a threshold to demarcate risks that clinicians should discuss with the patient. Application of minimal risk standards to risk factors in pregnancy showed the usefulness and limitations of these standards.

  • A Bibliometric Analysis on Job Stress Using Visualizing Network
    Journal of Content, Community & Communication Amity School of Communication Vol. 12 Year 6, December - 2020 [ISSN: 2395-7514 (Print) ] Amity University, Madhya Pradesh [ISSN: 2456-9011 (Online)] A BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS ON JOB STRESS USING VISUALIZING NETWORK Amanpreet Kaur Sidhu Research Scholar, Management Department I.K.Gujral Punjab Technical University, Kapurthala, India. Harwinder Singh Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College, Ludhiana, India. Sandeep Singh Virdi Assistant Professor, School of Management Studies, Punjabi University, Patiala, India Raman Kumar Associate Professor Mechanical Engineering Department, Chandigarh University, India ABSTRACT Job stress is the most prevalent issue of the current scenario. It is observed that one out of four employees is affected by stress; thereby, it has attained the interests of many researchers. The rapid evolution of job stress research papers in the last years resulted that there is a need to conduct a detailed analysis of literature in this field. To address this problem, some researchers published a few review papers on job stress from different perspectives. Nonetheless, papers have not been published on job stress with bibliometric analysis. In the present study, an attempt is made to investigate the job stress publications with bibliometric analysis. Scopus database is considered as a literature database. Through analysis, article, conference paper, book chapter, review, Letter, editorial, note, book, short survey, data paper, Erratum, Retracted, and Undefined retrieved from Scopus indexes from 2010 to 2020. The collected data is analyzed against six research questions. The results revealed valuable insight, including annual publications, top contributing authors, Journal & affiliation, type of publication, subject area, the top country in publication, and keyword network.

  • A Mixed Methods Protocol
    J Ga Public Health Assoc (2016), Vol. 6, No. 2 ISSN 2471-9773 Research Protocol Exploration of barriers and facilitators to publishing local public health findings: A mixed methods protocol Selina A. Smith, PhD, MDiv, Nancy C. Webb, PhD, Daniel S. Blumenthal, MD, MPH, Bobbie Willcox, MHSA, Darra Ballance, MLIS, AHIP, Faith Kinard, and Madison L. Gates, PhD Journal of the Georgia Public Health Association Editorial Staff, Institute of Public and Preventive Health, Augusta University, Augusta, GA Corresponding Author: Selina A. Smith 1120 15th Street, CJ2300, Augusta, GA 30912 706-721-1104 [email protected] ABSTRACT Background: Worldwide, the US accounts for a large proportion of journals related to public health. Although the American Public Health Association (APHA) includes 54 affiliated regional and state associations, little is known about their capacity to support public health scholarship. The aim of this study is to assess barriers and facilitators to operation of state journals for the dissemination of local public health research and practices. Methods: A mixed methods approach will be used to complete the 12-month study. Affiliate websites will be accessed through the APHA membership portal to evaluate organizational infrastructure and ascertain the presence/absence of a journal. The leader of each affiliate will be contacted via email containing a link to a 12-question on-line survey to collect his/her perceptions of scholarly journals and the publication of local health data. To determine barriers and facilitators to publication of local public health findings, 30-minute semi-structured telephone interviews will focus on the infrastructure of the association, perceptions of the leader about the journal (if in place), and its operation.

  • Digital Storytelling Projects Combined with Social and Ecological Framework Applications to Examine Health Disparities Among Vulnerable Groups
    DIGITAL STORYTELLING PROJECTS COMBINED WITH SOCIAL AND ECOLOGICAL FRAMEWORK APPLICATIONS TO EXAMINE HEALTH DISPARITIES AMONG VULNERABLE GROUPS Su-I Hou* & Donovan Williams** *Su-I Hou, Professor, Public Affairs Doctoral Program, College of Health and Public Affairs, University of Central Florida, Orlando, Florida, USA, [email protected] **Donovan Williams, Doctoral Student, Public Affairs Doctoral Program, College of Health and Public Affairs, University of Central Florida, Orlando, Florida, USA, [email protected] ABSTRACT Abstract—Purpose: The results of this study illustrate how digital storytelling (DS) projects incorporating social and ecological framework applications can be used to effectively communicate major risk factors on social determinants of health contributing to health disparities, especially among vulnerable groups. Methods: Doctoral students in a “Human Ecology of Health and Illness” course worked on semester-long projects applying social-ecological frameworks to address health disparities among underserved groups. In addition to traditional paper reports, each student learned to develop a 3-minute DS project as a new and effective communication strategy to convey evidence-based research on major risk factors and suggested strategies to potential policy makers and the general public. A 7-item DS scale along with an overall effectiveness item was used to assess the quality of students’ DS projects. Results: As an integral part of the learning experience, students synthesized existing data and literature, used the seven element guidelines described in a DS cookbook and other resources, and incorporated ecological frameworks in their analyses. Students were also encouraged to talk with key community stakeholders to gain first-hand experience and perspectives on the issues and underserved groups.
