Only original manuscripts submitted to JCCP will be considered for publication. The cover letter should include a statement that the findings reported in the manuscript have not been previously published and that the manuscript is not being simultaneously submitted elsewhere. Manuscripts will not be returned. After a manuscript is accepted for publication, its author is asked to provide a computer disk containing the manuscript file. Files are copyedited and typeset into page proofs.
Authors read proofs to correct errors and answer editors' queries.
Doublespace all text. On the first page, indicate the title of the manuscript, the names and affiliations of authors, and the name and address of the person to whom reprint requests are to be sent. On the second page, provide a 1,000character abstract. The abstract should begin with a verb. Text citations must correspond accurately to the references in the reference list.
