This article presents a content analysis of articles published in the Canadian Journal of Community Mental Health (CJCMH) between 1982 and 2006. The analysis aims to provide an overall description of the articles, identify the major trends over time, and suggest future directions for CJCMH issues. The article highlights the development over time of various dimensions of CJCMH's content: identity and location of CJCMH's editors and most productive authors, language of publication, affiliation of the articles' first authors, themes of special issues and supplements, types of articles and areas of interest covered, and source of financing for empirical studies published in CJCMH. These findings are discussed in the context of the history and current knowledge of community mental health. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
