We receive manuscripts with the understanding that they are not under consideration elsewhere and that the substance of the data or analysis has not been published previously.
Submissions undergo a two-tiered review process.
The surviving submissions undergo double-blind peer review by at least two experts in the field. Authors of articles sent for review can expect to receive critiques of their manuscript about three months after submission, with guidance from the editors as to whether to proceed with a revision or submit elsewhere. The text should be preceded by a data-based abstract of no more than 250 words. Use active voice when writing the text. Stick to plain English and avoid the jargon known only to sociological, demographic, psychological and medical subspecialties.
