Journal of Emotional and Behavioral Disorders (JEBD)

The Journal of Emotional and Behavioral Disorders (JEBD) is a well‑established, quarterly peer‑reviewed academic journal published by SAGE Publications in partnership with the Hammill Institute on Disabilities that has been contributing to the field since 1993. The journal serves as a distinguished platform for interdisciplinary research and practice focused on emotional and behavioral disorders, particularly in children and youth, though its scope spans all age groups and multiple service settings. Its articles integrate perspectives from education, psychology, clinical practice, social work, counseling, rehabilitation, and public health to address the complex interplay of emotional and behavioral challenges and contextual factors such as family systems, schools, and communities. JEBD publishes empirical research, program evaluations, intervention studies, theoretical analyses, and policy‑oriented commentary that inform evidence‑based approaches to assessment, prevention, and treatment. Key topics of interest include functional behavioral assessment, positive behavior supports, mental health services in educational contexts, youth violence, classroom interventions, and systemic approaches to behavior change. Through rigorous peer review and a commitment to advancing scholarship and practice, the journal supports professionals and researchers aiming to improve outcomes for individuals with emotional and behavioral disorders and to translate research into effective real‑world practices and policies.
