Publication Policies
Submission is a representation that the manuscript has not been published previously and is not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. A statement transferring copyright from the authors (or their employers, if they hold the copyright) to Springer will be required before the manuscript can be accepted for publication. The Editor will supply the necessary forms for this transfer. Such a written transfer of copyright, which previously was assumed to be implicit in the act of submitting a manuscript, is necessary under the U.S. Copyright Law in order for the publisher to carry through the dissemination of research results and reviews as widely and effectively as possible.
Submissions
The Journal of Immigrant and Minority Health accepts original research articles, reviews articles, brief reports, reports from the field, and letters to the editor.
All manuscripts must be submitted in Word. Illustrations and maps must be reduced to images contained within the text.
Original research articles of no more than 3000 words should include the following sections:
Background
Theoretical/conceptual framework
Methods
- Participants
Data Collection
Measures
Analysis
A statement indicating that the research was approved by an ethics review committee
Results
Discussion
New Contribution to the Literature
References
Brief reports may consist of no more than 1500 words with no more than 10 references and, whenever possible, should adhere to the same heading format as original research manuscripts.
Review articles should be no longer than 6000 words.
Book reviews are limited to 1000 words and provide the following information in this format:
Author, Book title. City: Publisher, pages, price.
Manuscript Style
Type double−spaced on one side of 8−1/2 X 11 inch white paper using generous margins on all sides (including copies of all illustrations and tables). All copies must be dark, sharp, and clear. Computer−generated manuscripts must be of letter quality (not dot−matrix).
Cover Letter
The cover letter must include the following:
The title of the article
The name, affiliation, and contact information (address, telephone, fax, and e-mail) of the corresponding author
A statement that the manuscript has not been published elsewhere and is not under submission elsewhere
A statement indicating that there is no conflict of interest or, alternatively, disclosing any conflict of interest that may exist
A statement delineating the role of each author in the manuscript that has been submitted, e.g. development and implementation of methods, preparation of manuscript, statistical analysis, etc.
A statement indicating that all authors have reviewed the submitted manuscript and approve the manuscript for submission
Title Page
A title page is to be provided and should include the following, and should be typed as a footnote to the author’s name. The suggested running head should be less than 80 characters (including spaces) and should comprise the article title or an abbreviated version thereof.
The title of the article
Author’s name (no degrees)
Author’s affiliation
Suggested running head
The affiliation should comprise
The institution
The department
The city and state or nation
For office purposes, the title page should include
The name of the corresponding author
The complete mailing address
The fax and telephone numbers
The e-mail address
Abstract
The abstract is to be no longer than 150 words. Original research articles must have a structured abstract that includes Background, Methods, Results, and Discussion.
Key Words
A list of 4−5 key words is to be provided directly below the abstract. Key words should express the precise content of the manuscript, as they are used for indexing purposes
Section Headings
All sections should carry headings (such as INTRODUCTION, METHODS, RESULTS, DISCUSSION, CONCLUSIONS, etc.), typed flush left. All acknowledgments (including those for grant and financial support) should be typed in one paragraph (so−headed) on a separate page that directly precedes the References section.
All manuscripts must indicate whether the study was reviewed and approved by an institutional review board (IRB)/ethics review committee (REC). In situations in which there has been no approval by an IRB or REC, the authors must indicate what other measures were utilized for ethical review of the research prior to its initiation. Manuscripts relating to original research that lack this verification will not be accepted for publication.
List references (type double−spaced) numerically in order of text appearance at the end of the paper (after text and before tables and figure−caption list). Use the appropriate Arabic numeral in parentheses on the baseline for citation in the text. Where there are three or more authors, only the first author’s name is given in the text, followed by et al.
References should include (in this order):
Last names and initials of all authors
Name of publication
Year published
Volume and issue number
Inclusive pages
Abbreviations of journal names should conform to Index Medicus style; journals not listed in Index Medicus should not be abbreviated.
The style and punctuation of the references should conform to that used in the journal −− illustrated by the following examples:
Journal Article
1. Littleford LN, Wright MO: Health consequences of positive and negative interracial interactions at a predominantly Caucasian public university. J Gender Culture Health 1998; 3:129−145
Book
2. Loue S: Legal and Ethical Aspects of HIV−Related Research. New York: Plenum Press; 1995
Contribution to a Book
3. Marshall PA, Koenig BA, Grifhorst P, van Ewijk M: Ethical issues in immigrant health care and clinical research: In: Loue S, ed. Handbook of Immigrant Health. New York: Plenum Press; 1998:203−226
Footnotes
Footnotes should be avoided. When their use is absolutely necessary, footnotes should be numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals and should be typed at the bottom of the page to which they refer. Place a line above the footnote, so that it is set off from the text. Use the appropriate superscript numeral for citation in the text.
Illustrations (photographs, drawings, diagrams, and charts) are to be numbered in one consecutive series of Arabic numerals. Illustrations and maps must be reduced to images contained within the text.
Tables should be numbered (with Roman numerals) and referred to by number in the text. Each table should be typed on a separate sheet of paper. Center the title above the table, and type explanatory footnotes (indicated by superscript lowercase letters) below the table.
Resubmissions
Revised manuscripts must be resubmitted within 90 days of the date of the editorial decision to be reviewed as a resubmission. Resubmissions received after this time frame will be evaluated as new submissions.
All resubmissions must be accompanied by a cover letter containing a point-by-point response to reviewers’ comments.
Page Charges
The journal makes no page charges. Reprints are available to authors, and order forms with the current price schedule are sent with proofs.
Does Springer provide English language support?
Manuscripts that are accepted for publication will be checked by our copyeditors for spelling and formal style. This may not be sufficient if English is not your native language and substantial editing would be required. In that case, you may want to have your manuscript edited by a native speaker prior to submission. A clear and concise language will help editors and reviewers concentrate on the scientific content of your paper and thus smooth the peer review process.
The following editing service provides language editing for scientific articles in all areas Springer publishes in.
Use of an editing service is neither a requirement nor a guarantee of acceptance for publication.
Please contact the editing service directly to make arrangements for editing and payment.

Springer Open Choice
In addition to the normal publication process (whereby an article is submitted to the journal and access to that article is granted to customers who have purchased a subscription), Springer now provides an alternative publishing option: Springer Open Choice. A Springer Open Choice article receives all the benefits of a regular subscription−based article, but in addition is made available publicly through Springers online platform SpringerLink. To publish via Springer Open Choice, upon acceptance please visit the link below to complete the relevant order form and provide the required payment information. Payment must be received in full before publication or articles will publish as regular subscription−model articles. We regret that Springer Open Choice cannot be ordered for published articles.
