INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS
Revised, January 2021
Family Medicine publishes original research, systematic reviews, narrative essays, and policy analyses relevant to the discipline of family medicine, particularly focusing on primary care medical education, health workforce policy, and health services research. We seek to be a forum for peer-reviewed scholarship regarding how to create a workforce to provide primary care to populations of people. The journal does not publish clinical review articles.
MANUSCRIPT CATEGORIES
Original Articles:
Original articles are scholarly manuscripts describing original research, in-depth analyses, or systematic reviews germane to education in the primary care disciplines in the United States or internationally. Original research papers about education in family medicine are a major focus of the journal. Such articles might describe the content and effectiveness of educational innovations pertinent to medical students, residents, fellows, academic physicians and scientists, interdisciplinary primary care teams, or practicing physicians. Original articles should describe ideas that might be generalized to multiple institutions or programs and must describe a rigorous evaluation process.
Systematic scholarly reviews of fundamental methods and skills involved in family medicine and primary care education in the United States or in other nations should be submitted as original articles. These should be extensively referenced and should provide new or original insight. In addition, scholarly reviews or original research addressing health policy issues related to the health professions workforce needed to care for patient populations in the United States or internationally are particularly welcomed.
Brief Reports:
In general, brief reports will be considered using the same criteria as listed above for original articles. Brief reports can be smaller in scope and may be less generalizable to other settings but should be equal in rigor to original articles. Education research papers focused on a single program or institution or program with a limited number of subjects should be submitted as brief reports.
Narrative Essays:
Family medicine is a discipline defined as much by our stories as by our science. Narrative essays published in Family Medicine should be stories (or poems) from clinical practice or from an educational setting and may be submitted by teachers, learners, patients, or health professionals. Narrative essays published in the journal are considered to be scholarly articles and will be peer-reviewed as carefully as original articles and brief reports. Opinion essays and clinical case reports should not be submitted in this category.
Letters to the Editor:
A Letter to the Editor manuscript should comment on articles recently published in the journal or discuss current issues relevant to family medicine education or practice. Preference will be given to letters contributing to ongoing debate and discussion of issues important to family physicians and educators. Research reports of very limited scope can be submitted as letters to the editor but must conform to the 500-word limit for this submission category.
Special Articles: Special articles may be submitted with permission from the editor. This category is reserved for scholarly papers important to the discipline of family medicine that are not appropriate as original articles, brief reports, narrative essays, or letters to the editor.
Book and Media Reviews:
Most book and media reviews are invited. These reviews comment on recently published books and media that are pertinent to readers of the journal. Interested individuals should contact the book review editor, William E. Cayley, Jr., MD at bcayley@yahoo.com .
MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION
Manuscripts must be prepared in the format described below. Carefully doing so will improve the likelihood that peer reviewers will rate the manuscript favorably.
o All manuscripts should be composed in a manner consistent with the uniform instructions for authors as published in the “Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals:” www.icmje.org .
o The preferred electronic text format for all manuscripts is Microsoft Word.
o Manuscript Format: The entire manuscript, including title pages, abstract, main text, reference list, and acknowledgments, should be double-spaced in an 8-1/2” x 11” portrait layout format with one-inch (1”) page margins and a 12-point font (these instructions are in this format).
