Editorial process
Authors are notified on receipt of a manuscript and upon the
editorial decision regarding publication.
Manuscript review: Manuscripts deemed suitable for
publication are sent to the Editorial, International Advisory Board members and/or
other national/international reviewers. We encourage authors to suggest the names of
possible reviewers. Notification of the editorial decision is
usually provided within to six weeks from the receipt of manuscript.
Publication of solicited manuscripts is not guaranteed. In most
cases, manuscripts are accepted conditionally, pending an author's
revision of the material.
Author approval: Authors are responsible for all
statements in articles, including changes made by editors. The
liaison author must be available for consultation with an editor of
The Journal to answer questions during the editorial process
and to approve the edited copy. Authors receive edited typescript
(not galley proofs) for final approval. Changes cannot be made to
the copy after the edited version has been approved.
