Features of the Australian Journal of Guidance and Counselling include:
- case studies
- empirical studies
- book reviews
- review articles.
Instructions to Authors
All articles are refereed. Papers submitted to the journal must not previously have been published nor submitted for publication to any other journal.
General Style Guidelines
- Contributions should follow the format and style described in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th ed.). Spelling and punctuation should conform to The Macquarie Dictionary (4th ed.). For matters of style not covered in these two publications the Style manual for authors, editors and printers (6th ed.) should be consulted.
- Uncommon abbreviations and acronyms should be explained. Do not use underlining except to indicate italics. Full stops should not be used in abbreviations or acronyms (e.g., NSW).
- Use single quotation marks to introduce a word or phrase used as an ironic comment, as slang, or which has been coined. Use quotation marks the first time the word or phrase is used; do not use them again. Do not use quotation marks to introduce a technical or key term. Instead, italicise the term.
- Do not use any footnotes. Endnotes should be kept to a minimum and listed at the end of the text under the centred heading "Endnotes". Acknowledgments should be placed at the end of the article with a separate heading.
- Tables should be at the end of the manuscript, not in the main text. Their approximate positions in the text should be indicated by the words, “Insert Table X here? Horizontal and vertical lines should be used sparingly.
- Photographs, graphs and figures should be at the end of the manuscript, not in the main text, and include placement instructions in the Word document, such as "Insert Fig x here".
- A list of figure captions should follow the tables in the manuscript.
- References should follow the format and style described in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th ed.). Examples of citations are:
The theory was first propounded in 1970 (Larsen, 1971). Larsen (1971) was the first to propound the theory.

Digital Submission Guidelines
- Documents should be saved as a Microsoft Word document (or in RTF format if using another program) double-spaced with minimum margins of 25 mm on both sides and in A4 page size.
- The first page of the document should include the title of the article only.
- The second page should include the title again, with the full names and affiliations of all the authors followed by a full postal and e-mail addresses for the corresponding author. A word count and suggested running head of no more than 50 characters including spaces should also be provided on this second page.
- The third page should contain an abstract only, not exceeding 200 words. It should provide a brief overview of the aims, method and major findings and should not refer to the body of the text in the abstract.
- FIGURES, GRAPHS, ILLUSTRATIONS, PHOTOGRAPHS, SPECIAL CHARACTERS
To ensure optimum quality, please follow the guidelines below when submitting artwork.
Figures, graphs, illustrations and photogrpahs should be prepared to the correct size and each one supplied as an individual file, separate to the manuscript Word file. Include placement instructions in the Word document, such as "[Insert fig 1 here]".
Figures created in Microsoft Word, Excel or Powerpoint need to be saved as PDFs.
Figures created in a drawing program such as Adobe llustrator, CorelDRAW, Freehand, Microsoft Publisher or similar should be saved as EPS (encapsulated postscript) files.
Figures created in Photoshop or with other photographic software should be saved with a minimum resolution of 600 dpi and in TIF format. Minimum resolution for scanned graphics is 300dpi for halftone work (e.g., photographs) and 600 dpi for line art, and these should also be in TIF format. All figures and graphs should should be in black and white line art (artwork that has only text and lines, no shades of grey or blocks of colour).
All photographs should be supplied as separate files in JPEG or TIFF formats for a minimum 300 dpi resolution. (As a rough guide, the file size of each photograph should be above 200KB).
Manuscripts which contain special characters (equations, Chinese characters, etc.) need to be supplied as a high resolution PDF file (print or press format) with all fonts embedded as well as the Word or RTF document.
Prior to sending artwork, the separate files of figures, graphs, illustrations, and so on, should be printed by the author to test that the fonts have been embedded correctly and there is no distortion in the artwork (e.g., lines and fonts reproduce cleanly with no jagged lines or fuzzy edges), as any such faults cannot be corrected by the publisher.
