Clinical EEG and Neuroscience
Clinical EEG and Neuroscience conveys clinically relevant research and development in electroencephalography and neuroscience. Original articles on any aspect of clinical neurophysiology or related work in allied fields are invited for publication.
The primary goal of ECNS is to further the clinical practice of classic electroencephalography (EEG), quantitative EEG (QEEG), evoked potentials, magnetoencephalography (MEG), electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), deep brain stimulation (DBS), polysomnography (sleep EEG), and EEG Neurofeedback from the professional, scientific, and economic standpoints. The dynamic nature of this society is attested to by the increasing numbers of presentations at meetings that employ newer methods of assessing brain function, e.g., SPECT, PET, functional MRI.
Clinical EEG & Neuroscience condemns all forms of prejudice and discrimination. We acknowledge the legacy of discrimination in science and ongoing existence of systematic barriers in our field that have marginalized equity-deserving groups, including women and racialized minorities. We are committed to the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion, both in the research community and the research being conducted, as we believe these are vital to good science.
Our journal has long adopted best practices to reduce prejudice in publishing, such as a double-anonymous peer review, constructive feedback for all submissions, and making editorial practices transparent (e.g. through publishing guides). We acknowledge, however, the need to do more to address systemic inequities and bias. To that end, we commit to:
· Examine the makeup of our board and associate editors to assess the diversity of identities we represent
· Work to better understand who is involved in our journal communities (editors, authors, reviewers), and how we can foster a more inclusive environment
· Address systemic barriers and biases that hinder access to science publishing
· Continuously learn and reflect on best practices in publishing and the promotion of EDI principles
· Finally, despite our best efforts we know we will make mistakes along the way. To that end, we commit to acknowledge our mistakes and learn from them.
We will be open, honest, and clear about any areas in which we fall short and invite feedback from our authors, reviewers, and partners about this at any time by contacting Prof. Dean Salisbury, Editor-in-Chief (salisburyd@upmc.edu) or SAGE publishing at info@sagepub.com
