Description

Aileen O'Brien and co-authors reflect on the role of editorials and commentaries in psychiatry, looking ten years ahead for one journal. Such short pieces shape debate, priorities, and values in the field, they write. The 2026 piece marks the first decade of the journal they serve.

Looking forward, the authors expect world unrest, fast tech change, and pressure on academic freedom to shape debate in the field. Against that backdrop, they stress guarding editorial independence and strict method standards. Openness to contested ideas also matters, they argue. The piece is a statement of intent for how the journal plans to handle the next decade's hard topics.
