Our goal is to publish sound science. This means we look for research that adheres to ethical standards, uses appropriate and rigorous methodologies that are transparent and meaningfully coherent to ensure clear, credible, and trustworthy results. We care more about the quality and significance of the contribution an article makes than we do the size of that contribution. Global Qualitative Nursing Research evaluates manuscripts based on how the research was conducted and reported.
