Call for Papers
Papers should be submitted to the Journal of Early Childhood Research. Submissions, normally of 4000-7000 words, should be sent by email to:
Lorraine Roe
Editorial Assistant Journal of Early Childhood Research
e.mail: jecr@sheffield.ac.uk
The electronic manuscript should be in double-spacing - with a separate cover sheet giving author's name, position, postal and email addresses.
Submissions will be refereed anonymously by at least two referees and we aim to inform authors of the editorial decision within six weeks of submission.
The journal uses the Harvard system of referencing: author's name and date in the text with references giving full bibliographic details in alphabetical order at the end of the article.
Most of the business of the Journal will be conducted by email.
Any written correspondence should be sent to
