PSICOLOGIA DELLA SALUTE

Psicologia della Salute is an indexed journal published since 1998 by the Italian Society of Health Psychology (SIPSA).
Dedicated to the scientific and cultural development of psychological research and its applications in the field of health, the Journal aims to provide the community of academic and professional psychologists working in this area with a tool for updating, exchange, and recognition of their work at both national and international level.
Interested in the evolutionary trajectories within health psychology, the Journal seeks to support its develop-ment in synergy with the discipline’s core identity assumptions: a multidimensional view of health based on a bio-psycho-social and ecosystemic framework; a salutogenic orientation of practices for the promotion, protec-tion, and restoration of health understood as both a personal and social good.
Health Psychology also presents itself as a “cross-roads space” in which different research and intervention paths – both disciplinary and interdisciplinary – can be represented and can grow through comparison and dialogue.

The editorial design of the Journal is reflected in the following sections:
• Panel: Coordinated contributions on the same topic, promoted through “call for papers” or discussion of a “target article”. The aim is to encourage comparison and scientific debate on key issues within the discipline.
• Research: Theoretical research contributions (systematic reviews, critical re-views, etc.) and empirical studies (field and experimental, qualitative and quantitative, etc.) fo-cused on health psychology and submitted by the community to the Journal.
• Short notes: Brief communications concerning theoretical and practical devel-opments in research.
• Experiences / interventions / tools: Contributions relating to professional practice, analysed in terms of thematic and theoretical foundations (context of action, aims, refer-ence paradigm, etc.), methodological aspects (design, tools, field implementation, etc.), and out-comes (evaluation of results). Experiential contributions written as case studies are also included.
• Training / profession: Analyses of the state and development of the health psychology profession, with reference both to the training pathways that support it (curriculum de-sign and evaluation, competence assessment, etc.) and to the contexts in which the profession is developed (public welfare and private settings, emerging new areas, etc.).
