Wiener Zeitschrift fur Suchtforschung (WZS)

Wiener Zeitschrift für Suchtforschung is an academic journal dedicated to the scientific study of addiction and substance-related disorders. It provides a platform for interdisciplinary research covering medical, psychological, and social dimensions of addiction. The journal primarily publishes in German and serves researchers and practitioners in Austria, Germany, and other German-speaking regions. The scope of the journal includes alcohol and drug dependence, behavioral addictions such as gambling, clinical treatment approaches, psychiatric comorbidities, prevention strategies, and rehabilitation methods. It also addresses public health policies and socio-environmental factors influencing addictive behaviors. Contributions often include empirical studies, theoretical analyses, clinical reports, and reviews. The journal is closely linked to academic and clinical institutions involved in addiction medicine and psychotherapy. It plays a role in bridging research and practice by providing evidence-based insights for healthcare professionals and policymakers. Publication frequency is irregular, reflecting its specialized and thematic nature rather than a fixed periodic schedule. Wiener Zeitschrift für Suchtforschung is considered a niche scholarly outlet within addiction studies, focusing on regional European research while contributing to broader international discussions on substance use and behavioral health.
