European Orthopaedics and Traumatology is the official publication of EFORT, the umbrella organization of the European national orthopaedic associations. The journal is intended to function as a communications channel connecting the member societies to one another and to the organisation. Each issue will present a collection of papers centering on a specific main topic, followed by comments and a consensus discussion and summary. The journal will publish not only peer-reviewed original papers, but also those from industry reporting on research and development. The articles chosen for publication in the journal represent the gold standard in diagnostic and treatment in orthopaedics. These reflect the broad spectrum of European opinion on the daily practice of orthopaedics, and help to promote consensus and accepted standards among members of the various societies, and across the discipline as a whole. In addition to research papers, European Orthopaedics and Traumatology presents review articles and meta-analyses of important clinical problems and topics under discussion, as well as case reports. Among the other features of European Orthopaedics and Traumatology are Letters to the Editors: Responses and Possible Decisions, and Reports on the increasingly important political aspects of orthopaedics in Europe The journal will offer a forum for discussion among orthopaedic surgeons and all those working with them, as well as a channel of communication with patient organisations. European Orthopaedics and Traumatology provides a platform for excellent basic and clinical research in orthopaedics and related disciplines.

The Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology provides a forum for the presentation of conceptual, methodological, policy, and research studies involved in the application of behavioral science research in developmental and life span psychology. The Journal publishes quality papers from an interdisciplinary perspective focusing on a broad array of social issues.The Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology focuses on two key concepts: human development, which refers to the psychological transformations and modifications that occur during the life cycle and influence an individual's behavior within the social milieu; and application of knowledge, which is derived from investigating variables in the developmental process. Its contributions cover research that deals with traditional life span markets (age, social roles, biological status, environmental variables) and broadens the scopes of study to include variables that promote understanding of psychological processes and their onset and development within the life span. Most importantly, the Journal demonstrates how knowledge gained from research can be applied to policy making and to educational, clinical, and social settings.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.
