Peer review training

For us to develop art therapy literature that is truly representative of contemporary practice, we need the widest possible involvement of art therapists as peer reviewers. This training prepares you to review submissions to the International Journal of Art Therapy.

Why become a peer reviewer? 

Through the process of peer reviewing, you can support the development of art therapy literature by using your valuable practice and lived experiences. This will help authors publish papers that advance the understanding of how art therapy contributes to effective interventions.

Other benefits to being a peer reviewer include:

  • keeping up with the latest research
  • improve your own writing
  • boost your career
  • become part of a journal’s community.

Why become a peer reviewer for the International Journal of Art Therapy?

Benefits to being a peer reviewer for the International Journal of Art Therapy include:

  • free training day that will count as a certified CPD activity
  • feedback from associate editors
  • reviewer certificate (a formal acknowledgment of your role by Taylor & Francis)
  • 30% discount on Taylor & Francis Group books
  • record your reviews as evidence of subject-area expertise and gain ‘merit’ points on Publons
  • Add details to your ORCID

How do I become a peer reviewer for the International Journal of Art Therapy?

You can become a peer reviewer for the journal if:

  • you are a full member of the British Association of Art Therapists;
  • have practiced as a qualified art therapist for three or more years;
  • and successfully complete this peer review training.

If you are not an art therapist or one of our members but would like to act as peer-reviewer, you can contact the journal’s Editor-in-Chief, Zoe Moula at zoe.moula@baat.org to discuss if you have the relevant experience.
