Referees evaluate the manuscript according to established criteria on an evaluation form. The Editor-in-Chief transmits reviewer evaluations and comments to the corresponding author within 2 - 4 weeks.  The Journal has an acceptance rate of approximately 19%.  Final disposition of the manuscript rests with the Editor-in-Chief.  Should a manuscript be accepted, the author(s) will be asked to provide the final manuscript in Microsoft Word for Windows.  Proofs will be supplied to the corresponding author to check the accuracy of the typesetting.  Authors will be charged for alterations to the proofs beyond those needed to correct typesetting errors.  At the time of publication, there will be a $20 typesetting fee assessed for each table and figure in the manuscript.
