Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy (CJOT)

The Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy was first published in September 1933.  Since that time, it has fostered advancement and growth of research, theory and practice in occupational therapy.  The mission of the journal is to advance excellence in occupational therapy research that informs education, practice and policy.  The vision is to influence occupational therapy globally. Consistent with its mission and vision, the principle content of the journal is full-length empirical papers across the full range of methodologies (e.g., outcomes research, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, qualitative inquiries, psychometric research & policy analysis).  Theoretical papers, methodological or conceptual reviews, and clinical or program descriptions and clinical case examples that have the potential to inform future research also fit within the journal's mission and subsequent scope.  Invited commentaries, book reviews and letters to the editor are published on occasion. Articles are published in the language of submission, with an abstract in French and English.
