Abstract
Through recent decades, several attempts have been made to counteract selective report of clinical trial results by investigators of many countries. They decided to register these trials to permit every trial's existence be part of the public record, and the many stakeholders be able to explore the full range of clinical evidence. Iranian Ministry of Health and Medical Education proposed comprehensive trials registration in accordance with international standards, and established the policy of prospective clinical trial registration on December 22nd 2009. This policy was supported and adopted by members of the Iranian Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE). To welcome the new act, Iranian Journal of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences (IJPBS) elaborates the timelines for initiation of this new policy.
