Instructions to Authors Author Guidelines
Content and length of manuscripts 1. The Editor welcomes original articles which fall within the aims and scope of the Journal, and which are as concise as the subject matter and research method permit. Where possible the text should be restricted to around 5-6000 words.
2. Submission of a paper or research note implies that it contains original work which has not been published previously, and that is not under consideration for publication elsewhere.
3. Copyright in all accepted contributions to the Journal will be vested in the British Academy of Management. Once a manuscript is accepted, and only in this case, a completed Copyright Agreement Form, signed by the author, must be sent to the Production Editor as a hard copy, at the following address:
Yana Zykova Journal Content Management Social Sciences and Humanities Wiley-Blackwell 101 George Street Edinburgh EH2 3ES, UK
To speed processing the form may be faxed in advance. However, a hard copy is needed prior to publication. For multi-authored contributions, only one author need complete the Agreement on behalf of the co-authors, undertaking to inform them. click here for a copy of the form. Additional copies are available from the Editor-in-Chief or from the Publisher. In the event that a paper or research note is rejected this signed agreement becomes null and void.
Mode of submission 4. All manuscripts should be submitted electronically via the BJM online electronic editorial office, Manuscript Central, at: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/bjm.
Preparation of manuscripts 5. A cover page should give the title of the manuscript, the author's name, position and institutional affiliation, together with an address for correspondence; in the case of co-authors, names and affiliations and addresses should be clearly indicated. Correspondence will be sent to the first-named author unless otherwise specified. In order to enable the publisher to do everything to ensure prompt publication, the full postal and email addresses should be given for the author who will check the proofs, along with the telephone, telex and telefax numbers where possible. Any acknowledgements desired should also be placed on the cover page.
To assure anonymous review, authors should not identify themselves, directly or indirectly, in the text following the cover page.
6. Manuscripts should be typed double-spaced.
7. The first page of the text should begin with the title only, without the author's name, and a summary of no more than 200 words. This should summarize the whole paper and not the conclusions alone.
8. Figures, tables and footnotes should be supplied on separate sheets grouped at the end of the manuscript, with a note of their location in the text. Each table or figure should bear an arabic number and a title, and should be reasonably interpretable without reference to the text. Footnotes should be avoided if possible; where they are used they should be numbered consecutively with superscript arabic numerals.
9. With regard to manuscripts which refer to questionnaires or other research instruments which are not fully reproduced in the text, the author may also submit a copy of the complete research instrument. Where research instruments are not fully reproduced, a note must be inserted on the cover page indicating the address from which the complete instrument is available.
10. Hypotheses should normally be presented in the positive rather than the null form, so that each hypothesis states the result that is expected if the prior theoretical development is supported by the empirical evidence. However, where a null result provides support for a theoretical position or where no prior expectation exists, the null form is appropriate. Care should be taken to state clearly how standard statistical tests were applied (e.g. one- or two-tailed). Where possible, statistical significance should be stated to the nearest percentage point (e.g. p < 0.04) rather than at conventional levels of significance.
11. Literature citations should be made in a uniform style in text and footnotes, and follow the Harvard System with (Name, Date) in the text and an alphabetical list of references at the end of the manuscript. Please use the BJM style for formatting your reference list:
Article in journal: Michel, J. G. and D. C. Hambrick (1992). 'Diversification posture and top management team characteristics', Academy of Management Journal, 35, pp.9-37.
Book: Neter, J. M. H. Kutner, C. J. Nachtsheim and W. Wasserman (1996). Applied Linear Regression Models. Irwin Press, Illinois.
Chapter in book: O'Reilly, C., R. Snyder and J. Boothe (1993). 'Effects of executive team demography on organizational change'. In: G. Humber and W. Glick (eds.), Organizational Change and Redesign: Ideas and Insights for Improving Performance, pp. 147-175. New York: Oxford.
Works by the same author should be listed in order of publication. Where reference is made to more than one work published by the same author in a single year, a suffix, a, b, etc. should follow the date, thus: (Smith, 1989b). If an author's name is mentioned in the text, it need not be repeated in the citation, thus 'Hopwood (1989, p. 5) claims that...'
12. Please include a short author biography of 50-75 words to accompany the article.
Further Information 13. It is the author's responsibility to obtain and supply with the manuscript permission to quote material from copyrighted sources.
14. No manuscript or figures will be returned unless a request for return is made when the manuscript is submitted.
15. An electronic offprint of each published paper and one copy of the journal issue in which it appears will be provided free of charge. Additional copies may be purchased from the following website: http://offprint.cosprinters.com/cos/bw/main.jsp?SITE_ID=bw&FID=USER_HOME_PG.
Research Notes 16. Short notes are invited outlining recent developments or innovations with which the author has been associated. Such developments would include organizational innovations, new management techniques, brief research results, the results of replications of research studies and new approaches to management education and development. These may, where appropriate, include a contact point for further information.
Book Reviews 17. Books for review should be sent to Professor Denis Smith, The School of Business and Management, University of Glasgow, Gilbert Scott Building, Glasgow, G12 8QQ, UK, denis.smith@lbss.gla.ac.uk
ONLINE EARLY
We are pleased to announce that The British Journal of Management is now part of the Blackwell Synergy OnlineEarly service. Articles accepted for publication can be accessed on a regular basis online in advance of their appearance in a print issue. These articles are fully peer reviewed, edited and complete - they only lack page numbers and volume/issue details - and are considered fully published from the date they first appear online. This date is shown with the article in the online table of contents. The articles are available as full text HTML or PDF and can be cited as references by using their Digital Object Identifier (DOI) numbers. For more information on DOIs, please see http://www.doi.org/faq.html
To view all the articles currently available, please visit the journal homepage on http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/ and click on the "OnlineEarly" area at the top of the list of issues available to view. On print publication, the article will be removed from the OnlineEarly area and will appear instead in the relevant online issue, complete with page numbers and volume/issue details. No other changes will be made.
The implementation of OnlineEarly for The British Journal of Management represents our commitment to make manuscripts available for viewing by the academic community as quickly as possible, thereby reducing time to publication considerably without sacrificing quality or completeness.
