AJMP Publishing procedure

 

All submitted papers undergo a double-blind review, where neither the author nor the reviewers know each other’s names. The procedure itself seeks to answer several questions:

  1. How does the article contribute to a field or discipline?
  2. Which elements are particularly valuable to readers?
  3. How does the author’s methodology fit into the study?
  4. What is the quality of presented bibliographical entries?
  5. Does the article qualify for publishing without any further corrections?
  6. Does the article qualify for publishing with minor corrections? If so, what corrections are necessary?
  7. Does the article qualify for publishing with major corrections? If so, what corrections are necessary?
  8. Does the article not qualify for publishing? Please justify your opinion.


Other remarks. Notes for the authors:

  1. All articles should be submitted as MS Word 97/2003 *.doc file. The authors should use Times New Roman 12pt type in the main text. Long citations (over 60 words), notes & references should be made using 10pt type. If you are using a dif erent text processor (i.e. OpenOffice, LibreOffice, Pages) please make sure that the text retains its formatting in MS Word.
  2. Articles should fit between 20,000 and 33,000 characters including spaces and bibliography.
  3. Authors are to include a 200-300 word abstract, 12pt type, 1.5 spacing, centred.
  4. 1.5 spacing should be used throughout the text, excluding long citations, references and notes (single spacing).

  6. The article title should be made using 16pt type, centred.
  7. Notes are to be placed under a regular text page.
  8. Please do not use underlining and keep boldface to a minimum. Important terms can be italicized.
  9. Tables and diagrams should be numbered sequentially. Their numbering along with table title should be placed under a table or diagram. 
  10. Diagrams and/or illustrations are to be inserted as images. Please do not use the built-in MS Word diagram drawing function. To reduce publishing costs, please use greyscale for images and diagrams.
  11. Authors are obliged to secure in written form any third-party copyright permissions for re-publishing images and/or diagrams.
  12. If you are not a native speaker of English, please have your contribution carefully checked by a native speaker.

If you wish to include a newer edition, include the date of the original work: (Brown & Smith [1999] 2004: 12). The same analogies apply when creating bibliography.
