Subject: RE: Developmental Child Welfare

Dear Leslie,

Following on from our previous emails I thought I should advise you that our new journal (Developmental Child Welfare) is receiving submissions. I have attached a general ‘Call for Papers’, and the journal submission guidelines can be viewed here: https://uk.sagepub.com/en-gb/eur/developmental-child-welfare/journal203532

Please also spread the word among your colleagues, research students, and anyone else who might be preparing relevant manuscripts. The journal’s publisher (Sage) will be doing a big marketing push next year, particularly for the first issue, which means the first articles should get a lot of exposure,

Kind Regards,

Michael Tarren-Sweeney

Dear Michael,

Thank you for this invitation, the new journal sounds like it will fill an important niche. Unfortunately, I must decline the editorial board invitation as I simply have too many other existing commitments. If you are looking for individuals with similar expertise, I would suggest Patti Chamberlain (pattic at oslc.org<mailto:pattic at oslc.org>).

Best regards,
Leslie

Subject: Developmental Child Welfare

Dear Professor Leve,

I am a developmental and clinical researcher in the field of child welfare, with most of my work being focussed on children growing up in statutory care. I have been editor of Clinical Child Psychology and Psychiatry for the past five years (published by Sage), but recently resigned that post in order to set up a new journal with Sage, which we are calling Developmental Child Welfare. The background to this is that, like many other scholars working in this area, my developmental and clinical research is inseparable from child welfare policy, legislation and practice. As you may be aware however, no academic journal exclusively covers this inter-disciplinary space. Developmental and health research with these vulnerable children is either published in developmental / health / clinical journals that are not specific to these child populations (e.g. Development and Psychopathology; Child Development; Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry; Attachment and Human Development) – or it is published in child welfare and out-of-home care practice journals, such as Child Abuse and Neglect; Child Maltreatment; Children and Youth Services Review; and Adoption and Fostering. The scopes of these journals reinforce the divide between social work and social policy on the one hand, and developmental science and clinical practice on the other.

Developmental Child Welfare will be published quarterly from January 2019 as a traditional journal (i.e. not Open Access) that will be included in the Sage Premier package, which most university libraries subscribe to. This is an unusual degree of commitment by Sage – it only launches two or three new traditional journals a year, as distinct from a considerable number of new Open Access journals. After carrying out market research, Sage agreed with my argument that a new journal focussed on this inter-disciplinary space is likely to be both successful and influential. The new journal will initially focus on publishing a relatively small number of high-impact articles with a view to being added to Journal Citation Reports in the minimum timeframe, and attaining a good initial impact factor. This will be critical to encouraging quality manuscripts into the future. We are presently assembling the editorial board for the journal. Given your research is closely aligned to the scope of the new journal, I would be delighted if you could join the journal’s Editorial Board. I’m very conscious of how busy everybody is these days, and so I should emphasise that the role is not particularly onerous. We hope that members of the Editorial Board might agree to review two articles a year, but otherwise the day-to-day running of the journal will be carried out by myself and a small team of associate editors. For your information I have attached the journal’s aims and scope.

Please give this proposal your serious consideration. I would be very happy to answer any questions you have about my request, either via email or skype,

Kind Regards,

Michael Tarren-Sweeney
