Author Guidelines

Authors need to register with the journal prior to submitting or, if already registered, can simply log in and begin the five-step process. 

Please read your chosen journal’s submission requirements and make sure that:

  • The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
  • The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, or RTF document file format.
  • Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
  • The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
  • The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines of the journal.

Please refer to the step by step guide for submitting a manuscript.
