Aims and scope
The American Journal of Sexuality Education speaks directly to the distinct, professional needs of sexuality educators and trainers. This peer-reviewed journal provides sexuality educators and trainers with current research about sexuality education programming, best practices, sample lesson plans, reports on curriculum development and assessment, literature reviews, scholarly commentary, educational program reports, media reviews (books, videos, internet resources, and curricula), and letters to the editor.

The American Journal of Sexuality Education addresses a variety of sexuality topics and audiences, presenting up-to-date theory and practice, lessons, and evaluations. Since sexuality encompasses so many different topics, content for the journal will always be diverse, including but certainly not limited to teaching about: pregnancy prevention, sexually transmitted infections, sexual coercion, healthy versus unhealthy relationships, sexual orientation and identity, sexual response, sexual decision-making, gender identity, and more.

The American Journal of Sexuality Education was previously published under the title Journal of Sex Education and Therapy (published from 1975 to 2001) and is affiliated with the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists ( http://www.aasect.org/).

Peer Review Policy: All articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by between four and eight anonymous referees.
