Canadian Journal of Nursing Research
For CJNR pre-2016 archives, please go to http://www.mcgill.ca/cjnr/.
A quarterly refereed peer-review publication, CJNR accepts quality quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method manuscripts on a broad spectrum of topics that include, but are not limited to clinical, psychosocial, biological, educational, models of care, health services, and health systems research studies. CJNR also welcomes short research reports, systematic reviews, clinical and/or conceptual papers, current issues, editorials, and commentaries that are of special interest to nursing.
CJNR is intended to serve both Canada and the international nursing community as a forum for the dissemination and communication of nursing knowledge and research. We therefore welcome submissions of research and other scholarly work from Canadian as well as international authors.
