Manuscript Submission Guidelines:
Manuscripts, an abstract, and 4-5 key words should be submitted electronically at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/apr, where authors will be required to set up an online account in the SAGETRACK system powered by ScholarOne. Articles should be the equivalent of approximately 25 typewritten, double-spaced pages with footnotes, references, tables, and figures on separate pages. Research notes should be approximately 10 pages in length. Except in unusual circumstances, submissions in excess of 45 pages will not be reviewed. Authors should closely follow the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th edition). Since manuscripts are reviewed anonymously, authors should avoid any identifying text references. Submission of a manuscript implies commitment to publish in the journal. Authors submitting manuscripts to the journal should not simultaneously submit them to another journal, nor should manuscripts have been published elsewhere in substantially similar form or with substantially similar content. Authors in doubt about what constitutes prior publication should consult the editor.
Authors are also encouraged to submit supplemental data along with their manuscripts. As supplemental data only appear online as complimentary information to the manuscript content, anything from additional tables, figures, detailed data sets, movie clips and audio files is considered supplemental. Although supplemental data does not necessarily need to be mentioned within the submitted manuscript, please make sure to inform the journal editor of this once the manuscript has been accepted for publication. Questions can be directed to the journal editor.
Those authors who want to refine the use of English in their manuscripts might consider utilizing the services of SPi, a non-affiliated company that offers Professional Editing Services to authors of journal articles in the areas of science, technology, medicine or the social sciences. SPi specializes in editing and correcting English-language manuscripts written by authors with a primary language other than English. Visit http://www.prof-editing.com for more information about SPi’s Professional Editing Services, pricing, and turn-around times, or to obtain a free quote or submit a manuscript for language polishing.
Please be aware that SAGE has no affiliation with SPi and makes no endorsement of the company. An author’s use of SPi’s services in no way guarantees that his or her submission will ultimately be accepted. Any arrangement an author enters into will be exclusively between the author and SPi, and any costs incurred are the sole responsibility of the author.
