INTRODUCTION
Submission of a paper to Psychology & Health will be taken to imply that it represents original work not previously published, that it is not being considered elsewhere for publication, and that if accepted for publication it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in any language, without the consent of editor and publisher. It is a condition of the acceptance by the editor of a typescript for publication that the publisher automatically acquires the copyright of the typescript throughout the world.
SUBMISSION OF MANUSCRIPTS
One hard copy of each manuscript, and an electronic version, should be sent to Paul Norman, Department of Psychology, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, S10 2TP, UK. Each paper will be read by at least two referees.
FORMAT OF MANUSCRIPTS
Manuscripts should be typed according to the guidelines in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (4th edition, 1994); however, please follow the present Instructions for Authors in cases of contradiction with the APA guidelines. Manuscripts should not exceed 30 pages (including references, tables, figures, etc).
Title page: This should contain the title of the paper, a short running title, the name and full postal address of each author and an indication of which author will be responsible for correspondence, reprints and proofs. Abbreviations in the title should be avoided.
Abstract: This should not exceed 150 words and should be presented on a separate sheet, summarizing the significant coverage and findings.
Key words: Abstracts should be accompanied by up to six key words or phrases that between them characterize the contents of the paper. These will be used for indexing and data retrieval purposes.
TEXT HEADINGS
All headings in the text should be set over to the left-hand margin, and the text should begin on the next line. Type first level (sectional) headings all in capitals. For second and third level headings, only the first letter of the first word should be a capital. Underline third level headings. For example:
FIRST LEVEL TEXT HEADINGS
Second Level Text Headings
Third level text headings
REFERENCES
References should be indicated in the text with the author's name and year of publication in parentheses. If there are two authors, both names should be given. If there are more than two authors, all should be given on the first occasion, and then the first author "et al." should be used subsequently. Use "and" between author names mentioned in the text and an ampersand (&) when mentioned in parentheses and in the reference section. The full list of references should be given in alphabetical order on a separate sheet, with titles of books and journals given in full. Generally, the APA guidelines should be followed for the references. Examples:
1. Johnston, M. (1984) Dimensions of recovery from surgery. International Review of Applied Psychology, 33(4), 505-520.
2. Smith, A.P., Tyrrell, D.A.J., Coyle, K.B., Higgins, P.G. and Willman, J.J. (1990) Individual differences in susceptibility to infection and illness following respiratory virus challenge. Psychology and Health, 4, 201-211.
FIGURES
All figures should be numbered with consecutive arabic numerals, have descriptive captions and be mentioned in the text. Figures should be kept separate from the text but an approximate position for each should be indicated in the margin. It is the author's responsibility to obtain permission for any reproduction from other sources.
Preparation: Figures must be of a high enough standard for direct reproduction. They should be prepared in black (india) ink on white card or tracing paper, with all the lettering and symbols included. Axes of graphs should be properly labelled and appropriate units given. Photographs intended for halftone reproduction must be high quality glossy originals of maximum contrast. Redrawing or retouching of unsuitable figures will be charged to authors.
Size: Figures should be planned so that they reduce to 10.5 cm column width. The preferred width of submitted drawings is 16-21 cm, with capital lettering 4 mm high, for reduction by one-half. Photographs for halftone reproduction should be approximately twice the desired size.
Captions: A list of figure captions should be typed on a separate sheet and included in the typescript.
TABLES
Tables should be clearly typed with double spacing. Number tables with consecutive arabic numerals and give each a clear descriptive heading. Avoid the use of vertical rules in tables. Table footnotes should be typed below the table, designated by superior lower-case letters.
PROOFS
Authors will receive proofs (including figures) by air mail for correction, which must be returned within 48 hours of receipt. Authors' alterations in excess of 10% of the original composition cost will be charged to authors.
Early Electronic Offprints:
Corresponding authors can now receive their article by e-mail as a complete PDF. This allows the author to print up to 50 copies, free of charge, and disseminate them to colleagues. In many cases this facility will be available up to two weeks prior to publication. Or, alternatively, corresponding authors will receive the traditional 50 offprints. A copy of the journal will be sent by post to all corresponding authors after publication. Additional copies of the journal can be purchased at the author's preferential rate of ?5.00/$25.00 per copy.
REPRINTS
Twenty-five reprints per article will be sent to the senior author free of charge. Additional copies may be purchased when returning proofs.
