Submissions

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.

• By submitting your manuscript, you affirm that it has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
• Your submission file must be an OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, or RTF document file format. Do NOT submit PDFs.
• Where available, include stable URLs in your reference list.
• Where available, include DOIs in your reference list. Please use this link to check each article you cite for a DOI: https://search.crossref.org/.
• Please follow APA 7 guidelines. Manuscripts should be double-spaced; use a 12-point font; have 1" margins; adhere to APA 7 headings; and all illustrations, figures, and tables should placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
• To ensure blind peer review, the manuscript should not contain any information that identifies the author(s), including names, affiliations, acknowledgments, or self-identifying references. For example, write self-citations in a way that does not reveal authorship (e.g., replace identifying references with “Author, Year” where necessary). Please be sure you have anonymized all metadata for your file, such as the document author in your document properties.
