Preparation of Manuscript:
For both electronic and hard copy submission follow the directions below. Manuscripts will not be reviewed until they comply with these requirements.
1. Manuscripts are normally 15 to 20 double spaced pages, 5000 words, including references. Slightly longer manuscripts may be reviewed but the journals reserve the right to ask authors to shorten articles prior to publication. Use clear black ink, only one side of 8.5"x 11" or A4 paper, 1 inch margins on all sides, non justified text on the right side, type size 12-14 points, and a simple typeface such as courier, enchanted, or times roman. Authors' names should appear only on the title page.
2. Use inclusive language.
3. Citing in text with a list of references with a separate heading at the end of the article is preferred. Footnotes should be avoided if possible and used only for substantive comments not included in the main text.
4. References should appear in a separate section titled "REFERENCES" at the end of the text and must be in American Psychological Association style (4th ed.). Please see a recent issue of the Journals or click here for a model.
5. Tables and figures should be camera ready, kept to a minimum, described in the text, and provided after the references with each on a separate page, numbered and referred to accordingly in text.
