Information for contributors:

The Canadian Journal of Human Sexuality is a quarterly publication of SIECCAN, the Sex Information and Education Council of Canada. The journal publishes manuscripts from a variety of disciplines related to the study of human sexuality.

In addition to research based on the collection of empirical data, the CJHS will consider other scholarly submissions such as clinical case presentations and critical analyses. Decisions about acceptance or rejection of a manuscript are made by the Editor upon the recommendation of reviewers. Conference proceedings, special theme issues, and invited submissions including literature reviews, will also be considered for publication. Permission to republish any part of a CJHS article in any other source should be obtained from SIECCAN.

A submission to the CJHS serves as an indication by the author(s) that the manuscript has not been previously published and is not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. Authors should submit a self-addressed envelope or postcard which will be used to acknowledge receipt of the manuscript.

The Editor holds the right to make certain minor changes in the manuscripts in order to meet publication requirements. No change will be made that would have an impact upon the content of the article.

Manuscripts should be sent to the Editor:
