Specific Stylistic Instructions for Accepted and Revised Papers Paper should be typed double spaced on one side of the page only.
The title should be typed in capital letters. If there is an acknowledgment note, attach it to the title, not the author's name.

Headings should be centered, preceded by a roman numeral.
Subheadings should be flush left underlined, preceded by a capital letter or Arabic numeral.
References in the text and notes should use square brackets and dates, not numbers, i.e., Keynes [1936] or Samuelson [1947, p. 37] or [Hansen, 1938, p. 83], depending on usage.
Equation numbers should be flush at the left margin surrounded by parens, i.e., (1). Equations will be considered parts of sentences; punctuate accordingly.
Tables. Place at the end of the paper on separate pages. Heading (i.e., Table I) should be centered and should use roman numerals. The title of the table should be centered in initial capitals and lowercase letters.
Figures. Place at the end of the paper on separate pages. If the artwork is computer-generated, submit at least one original, non-xeroxed version. Heading (i.e., Figure I) should be centered and should use roman numerals. Captions of figures should be centered underneath. If it's a title, use capitals and lowercase letters. If it's in sentence form, treat in the normal way. Note that captions are printed, not drawn.
A reference list is required. Style is as follows: Information needed for journals: Author's last name, author's first name, "Title of Article," _Name of Journal_, volume number in roman numerals (year), page numbers NOT preceded by pp. (Indent second et. seq. lines.)
Information needed for books: Author's last name, author's first name, _Title of Book_, editor'(s') name(s) if appropriate, eds. (city of publication, state, in 2-letter Post Office form: publisher, year). (Indent second et. seq. lines.)
If work by more than one author, first author's last name, first author's first name, second author's first name followed by second author's last name, etc. If more than one work by an author, use a long dash followed by a comma.

Mathematics in type. Strive for simplicity. All letter symbols will appear as italics in print (except cov, max, 1n, etc.), unless vectors are explicitly referred to and then the symbols will appear in boldface. Underbars can be printed. Tildes typed beneath letters will be assumed to indicate vectors (i.e., boldface). In the text or notes, simple fractions will be broken down and printed with a solidus. If they're complicated, they'll be displayed.
Definitions, theorems, propositions, corollaries, assumptions, and lemmas should be typed as Theorem 1 etc., flush at the left margin. Text of the theorem should be indented in the second et seq. lines.
Proofs, etc., should be typed as:
_Proof of Theorem 1_. This heading is paragraph indented and underlined (italics in print), and the rest of the paragraph is typed with the same margins as the rest of the paper. If QED is used, place at the right margin following the proof.
