PEDIATRICS is an official peer-reviewed journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics. In the inaugural January 1948 issue of PEDIATRICS, the editor, Hugh McCulloch, articulated the journal's vision: "The content of the journal is... intended to encompass the needs of the whole child in his physiologic, mental, emotional, and social structure. The single word, PEDIATRICS, has been chosen to indicate this catholic intent." PEDIATRICS continues this legacy, publishing original research, clinical observations, and special feature articles in the field of pediatrics, as broadly defined. Contributions pertinent to pediatrics are also included from related fields such as nutrition, surgery, dentistry, public health, child health services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, education, sociology, and nursing. PEDIATRICS serves authors and readers of the general medical profession as well as pediatricians. The Executive Board and officers of the American Academy of Pediatrics have delegated to the Editor and Associate Editor the selection of articles appearing in PEDIATRICS. Statements and opinions expressed in such articles are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the American Academy of Pediatrics, its Committees, the Editors, or Editorial Board of PEDIATRICS. PEDIATRICS has been continuously published by the American Academy of Pediatrics since January 1948. PEDIATRICS is indexed by major biomedical and scientific indices, including Medline/PubMed , and ISI (Thompson) .
The online edition of PEDIATRICS is produced and hosted by Stanford University's HighWire Press. The online edition contains all materials from the print edition, in addition to articles published only online in the Electronic Contents section of the journal. The online version of PEDIATRICS is considered the journal of record. Archives of past issues are available. From reference lists, readers can link to full text or abstracts of hundreds of STM articles and browse subspecialty article collections, register for free e-mail alerts, save articles to a personal electronic file cabinet, download articles to their handheld (Palm or Windows) devices, and perform sophisticated search queries. PEDIATRICS supports and adheres to the guidelines for responsible publishing outlined in the DC Principles for Free Access to Science. Articles published in the Electronic Pages section of the journal, all policy statements from the American Academy of Pediatrics, and specific articles deemed important to the general public are made freely available immediately upon publication. PEDIATRICS is made freely available to institutions and individuals in over 120 developing nations around the world through participation in the World Health Organization's HINARI initiative, the Satellife network, and a country-based access system developed by HighWire Press and installed directly on PEDIATRICS' Web site.
