Description
Drug and Alcohol Dependence is an
international journal devoted to publishing
original research,
scholarly reviews,
commentaries, and policy analyses in the area
of drug, alcohol and tobacco use and dependence.
Articles range
from studies of the chemistry of substances of abuse,
their actions at molecular
and cellular sites, in vitro and in
vivo
investigations of their biochemical,
pharmacological and behavioural actions,
laboratory-based and clinical research
in
humans, substance abuse treatment and
prevention research, and studies employing
methods from epidemiology, sociology, and
economics. The rationale for this extensive coverage is the conviction
that drug, alcohol and tobacco use/dependence cannot be
understood
in their entirety from a
single perspective and that without an understanding of other areas of
research,
studies by individual
investigators may be limited. The goal of the journal
is to
provide researchers, clinicians, and policy makers access to material
from all
perspectives in a single journal in a format that is understandable and
which has
received rigorous editorial review.
The hope of its editors is to promote
mutual
understanding of the many facets of drug abuse to the benefit of all
investigators
involved in drug and alcohol research, and to facilitate the transfer of
scientific
findings to successful treatment and prevention
practices.
The accepted abbreviation for Drug and Alcohol Dependence for bibliographic citation is Drug Alcohol Depend.
