Diversity, equity, and inclusion
In August 2021, the Journal of Anxiety Disorders pledged its commitment to improving the diversity of their editorial board and contributors while also making it a priority to increase attention to culture and diversity in the published research.[citation needed] 50% of the senior editors are women and data from January 2021 indicates approximately 30% of the editorial board were women. The journal has made it a priority for 2021–22 to work towards increasing the representation of women on the editorial board with aim of reaching 50% by June 2022. With equal priority, the journal seeks to increase global balance of their editorial board and contributors to the journal over the next several years. The pledge and associated aims by the Journal of Anxiety Disorders aligns with Elsevier's broader ongoing equity, diversity, and inclusion efforts as it is critical for these factors to be considered in achieving scientific excellence, innovation, and advancement.
