Due date extended to July 1, 2021, Special Issue for Prevention Science: International Responses to

Behavioral health practices 1 International Responses to Prevention Intervention Research during Human Ecosystem Disruptions have been the foci of public health campaigns and mental health and well-being are at the forefront of outcomes especially among those most vulnerable to the social and economic effects of this current pandemic. [...] As part of the scientific response prevention research teams, implementers and stakeholders have sought to address the impact of this HED within their own research field and to aid in understanding the spread of disease and the associated impacts on the health and well-being of the populations they study. [...] Emerging questions of interest may relate not only to physical health, but to the global regional, community and familial effects of HED on the educational, economic, social, and emotional well-being of research participants, especially in low and middle-income regions at the national and cross-national levels. [...] To that end, we encourage submissions that include any of the following types of papers: 1) Original empirical and descriptive research that examines the comparative effectiveness of preventive approaches to HED at the within country and cross-national levels that have potential application to responses during the current and subsequent pandemics, natural disasters and socio/economic crises. [...] The guest editors will review the letters of intent for fit with the special issue and work to provide an inclusive set of papers that best advances theoretical and empirical knowledge in prevention and intervention during pandemics globally.
