Throughout the year, various topical issues may be covered in special issues of the journal. Authors chosen for one of these issues will be notified after acceptance. Since these issues cover one specific topic in-depth, authors may be asked to revise their manuscripts with an emphasis on one aspect of their research. Authors are notified by mail as to the status of their manuscripts. JSGE does not return manuscripts, disks, graphs, or photos.
Publication is usually within one year of acceptance.
However, publication can sometimes take up to 18 months. Failure to follow these guidelines may result in the return of the manuscript or a longer time in the review process. Authors should send four copies of each manuscript. They should be typed, double-spaced on one side of the page only. Each page of one copy should be labeled with the page number and the author's name in the upper right-hand corner.
