Preparation of manuscripts
8. A cover page should give the title of the manuscript, the author's name, position and institutional affiliation, together with an address for correspondence; in the case of co-authors, names and affiliations and addresses should be clearly indicated. Correspondence will be sent to the first-named author unless otherwise specified. In order to enable the publisher to do everything to ensure prompt publication, the full postal and email addresses should be given for the author who will check the proofs, along with the telephone, telex and telefax numbers where possible. Any acknowledgements desired should also be placed on the cover page.
To assure anonymous review, authors should not identify themselves, directly or indirectly, in the text following the cover page.
9. Figures, tables and footnotes should be Placed With in the Text Where it is in the dod. should be reasonably interpretable without reference to the text. Footnotes should be avoided if possible; where they are used they should be numbered consecutively with superscript English numerals.
10. With regard to manuscripts which refer to questionnaires or other research instruments which are not fully reproduced in the text, the author may also submit a copy of the complete research instrument. Where research instruments are not fully reproduced, a note must be inserted on the cover page indicating the address from which the complete instrument is available.
11. Hypotheses should normally be presented in the positive rather than the null form, so that each hypothesis states the result that is expected if the prior theoretical development is supported by the empirical evidence. However, where a null result provides support for a theoretical position or where no prior expectation exists, the null form is appropriate. Care should be taken to state clearly how standard statistical tests were applied (e.g. one- or two-tailed). Where possible, statistical significance should be stated to the nearest percentage point (e.g. p < 0.04) rather than at conventional levels of significance.
12. Literature citations should be made in a uniform style in text and footnotes, and follow the APA System with (Name, Date) in the text and an alphabetical list of references at the end of the manuscript.
Please use this guideline.
13. Please include a short author biography of 50-75 words to accompany the article.
