As my second 5-year term as its editor-in-chief begins, it is important to review what has accomplished, its areas of growth and what should be our future vision for the Journal. The keyword throughout this editorial is growth, with emphasis on growth in quality, for meaningful growth can only exist with increased quality. The original remit remains the correct long-term direction for the Journal, with the important modifier 'relevance' added to ensure quality - a general psychiatric journal with high-quality, methodologically rigorous and relevant publications, with relevance to the advancement of clinical care, patient outcomes, the scientific literature, research and policy. During this second term, I desire to expand the editorial board to fill expertise and diversity gaps; increase editorials and commentaries highlighting specific articles and timely events with psychiatric themes; focus on thematic series driven by the editorial board; and address under-represented topics.
在我作为主编开始第二个五年任期之际，回顾一下《期刊》已经取得的成就、其发展领域以及我们对该期刊未来的愿景是很重要的。这篇社论的关键词是发展，重点是质量的提升，因为只有质量提高了才有意义的发展。最初的职责范围仍然是该期刊正确的长期发展方向，并增加了重要的修饰词“相关性”以确保质量——这是一本普通精神病学杂志，发表高质量、方法严谨且相关的文章，与临床护理的进步、患者预后、科学文献、研究和政策相关。在第二个任期内，我希望扩大编辑委员会以填补专业知识和多样性方面的空白；增加突出特定文章和具有精神病学主题的及时事件的社论和评论；专注于由编辑委员会推动的专题系列；并处理代表性不足的主题。
