Background of College Journal

East Asian Archives of Psychiatry is the official peer-reviewed publication of the Hong Kong College of Psychiatrists. It is one of the few English psychiatric journals

in Asia. The journal publishes psychiatric reports not only from Hong Kong, but also from China, most Asian countries and other parts of the world. It aims to provide a platform for psychiatrists and mental health professionals in the region to share their research output in the field.  

Throughout the years, the journal has established a strict peer review process and a wide readership. The Journal is intended for circulation among fellows, members, inceptors, and affiliates of the College, colleagues in psychiatry, and selected readers in other fields of medicine and allied professions, both locally and abroad. The Journal is indexed in EMBSE/Excerpta Medica and PSycINFO, and can be accessed online at:
