Following the internal review, authors are notified by e-mail as to whether their manuscript has been sent out for external review or, if not, why not. Submissions which meet the basic requirements are then sent out for blind peer review from 2-3 experts in the field, either from the journal's editorial board or from our larger list of reviewers. This second review process takes 2-3 months. Commentaries which comment on previous articles should do so in a constructive fashion. Hypermedia links to additional information may be included.
Commentaries go through the same two-step review process as for articles described above.
Individual reviews should generally be 750-1,000 words. Please check the General Policies below for additional guidelines. Authors are responsible for the accuracy of references and citations, which must be in APA format. It is the responsibility of the author to inform the editor of any similar work that is already published or under consideration for publication elsewhere. Authors will be consulted only if the changes are major.
