Supplements are special collections of manuscripts, including research articles, op-eds, policy papers, notes from the field, and other pieces, related to a research study, intervention, and/or program. While HPHRâs supplements are the same as those produced by other academic journals, ours offer several unique features:
đ A dedicated editorial liaison, backed by a highly skilled editorial team, to field questions about the process and facilitate timely publication.
đ Publication in less than 4 months with successful completion of the peer-review process.
đ Expedited peer review featuring suggestions addressing high-level improvement of logical flow, clarity/coherence, and reader comprehension. Templates provided to support manuscript development.
đ Support manuscript finalization, including light copy-editing, layout, and formatting.
đ Official publication on the Journalâs website in a dedicated, high-profile space with a dedicated DOI for the supplement itself and each individual manuscript.
đ Promotion through the Journalâs e-newsletter and on the home page with an option to place social media (created by authors) on HPHRâs Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn pages.
đ Opportunity to host a live webinar and/or video promoting their supplement, links to which will be posted on HPHRâs social media channels, including their YouTube account.
HPHRâs editorial charges are lower than other journals; dictated by the number of articles published.
đ 5 manuscripts: $15,000 per supplement
đ 6-10 manuscripts: $20,000 per supplement
đ 11-15 manuscripts: $25,000 pieces may be published per supplement.
