Instructions for Manuscript Preparation
- Prepare your manuscript for electronic transmission in MS Word, or as an RTF file. Use Times New Roman font, 12-point, double-spaced throughout, in a format that fits U.S. standard business size paper (8 ½” X 11”). Keep the manuscript text to 25 pages maximum; figures and references may be additional.
- Prepare the manuscript in accordance with the latest edition of the APA Publication Manual.
- Insert a running head that appears in the upper right-hand corner of each page. The heading should reflect the focus of the paper.
- Insert page numbers in the upper right-hand corner after the running head.
- Include an abstract of 100–200 words that provides a good idea of (a) the article’s contents and (b) the benefits to be gained from reading the article. Include the purpose and other primary pieces of information. For empirical papers, include major findings. Avoid placing introductory or explanatory material in the abstract. Use the abstract as an opportunity to sell your article to potential readers, including reviewers, while omitting nonessential material.
- Manuscripts are blind reviewed; therefore, avoid writing any text, references or footnotes in ways that could identify the author(s).
- On the first page of the article include only the title, abstract, and keywords, with no acknowledgements, footnotes or any other information identifying authors or their affiliations. During submission, you will enter all information about the authors that usually appears on a title page in text boxes on the web-based submission form.
- Remove from the submission any reference to the authors, the school, or other information that might serve to identify the authors.
- In text, replace all information that would identify the authors by substituting words placed in brackets, such as: [name deleted to maintain the integrity of the blind review process].
- Avoid self-citation when possible. If self-citation is necessary, delete the names of authors and other identifying information; place substitute words in brackets (as given in Item 7b, above). In the reference list, delete the citation from the list until the manuscript has completed the review process.
- Print all figures and tables in black and white (not color). Note the desired placement of tables and figures within the text, but do not embed them in the text of the manuscript. Include them on separate pages following the text. Make sure each is clearly and appropriately titled.
Instructions for Manuscript Submission
After you enter SAGE Publication's web-based manuscript submission system, the process consists of the following steps:
1. Read and accept the Article Submission Agreement.
2. Provide information about yourself.
3. Provide information about any authors.
4. Upload your article and related items.
No part of the submission is final until all steps have been completed and the final Submit button has been clicked. Shortly after submitting, authors will receive an automatically generated acknowledgement by email. This email message will provide the manuscript number and website link to use for checking the status of the submission, submitting revisions, and contacting the editors.

Instructions for Submitting Manuscript Revisions
At any time that you need to submit a revision, please use the Revise Submission feature at the website link provided in your acknowledgement email. Please do not upload your revision as if it were a new manuscript. Uploading revised manuscripts as if they were new manuscripts only delays the review and decision process. If you need assistance, please email the Associate Editor assigned to your manuscript or the Editor.
