The Premier Journal of Innovation and Service in the Social Sciences
Human Relations is a key forum for innovative ideas in the social sciences and one of the world's leading journals for the analysis of work, organizations and management. It has stimulated advances in research and practice for over half a century, pioneering publication of multidisciplinary and action research focusing on progress in theory, methodology and applications. The editorial policy firmly grounds the journal in the belief that social scientists in all domains should work toward integrating their disciplines to understand humankind's increasingly complex problems.
A Fast Track to Publication and Innovative Review Process...
¡¤Human Relations offers a fast-track to publication with an average 127 days between acceptance for review and first decision.
¡¤Human Relations also boasts an innovative "reviewer school". Each manuscript reviewer receives the anonymous copies of other reviews in an attempt to offer exposure to the excellent refereeing practice that informs future reviewing work.

Instructions to Authors
Submissions should made online: http://humanrelations.manuscriptcentral.com
but please do read through the notes below first!
MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION
1 MANUSCRIPTS SHOULD BE ANONYMOUS. Please do not put your name anywhere on the manuscript.
2 You must submit a SUBMISSION FORM with your manuscript. The form is available on the submission web site.
3 Manuscripts may be of any length consistent with their content. However, most papers can be presented effectively WITHOUT EXCEEDING 8000 works.
4 Diagrams and tables reproduced from already published work require permission from the original publisher (or copyright holder). It should be stated in the relevant legend that permission for reproduction has been granted, giving the reference and name of the copyright holder who has given the permission.
5 Please indicate the position of figures and tables in the text as follows:
INSERT TABLE 1 ABOUT HERE
6 In the text, reference citations should appear as follows:
Trist (1973) shows; Miller and Rice (1967) agree.
or
Recent studies (Mintzberg & Smith, 1989; Ishikawa, 1990) show.
7 References should be listed in alphabetical order at the end of the manuscript.
8 Journal references should be listed as follows:
Tushman, M.L. & Anderson, P. Technological discontinuities and organizational environments. Administrative Science Quarterly, 1986, 31, 590-613.
Note that the journal title is given in full and is italicized.
9 Book references should be listed as follows:
Marrow, A.J. The practical theorist. The life and work of Kurt Lewin. New York: Basic Books, 1969.
Note that lower case letters are used for the book title.
10 Throughout the paper, the use of footnotes, italics, and quote marks should be avoided where possible.
11 Quotations should be kept to a minimum. Authors are asked, where possible, to keep quotations to 100 words or less. Where these quotations exceed 400 words, the permission of the publisher (or copyright holder) must be obtained and acknowledged.
GUIDANCE FOR CONTRIBUTORS
1 Authors should present explanations of the significance and relevance of their research and scholarship. They should couch use clear English, comprehensible to readers outside the authors' area of specialism.
2 Papers must advance knowledge in the sense that both the subject and method of investigation address an arena of wider interest than that which might be contained in 'old saws', narrow long-standing debates on matters of little consequence outside a particular specialism.
3 Authors should pay attention to the relevance of cited works. A superfluity of citations, with little or no explanation of why these citations were chosen, creates noise and redundancy of information.
4 While a description of the theoretical frame adopted by an author necessarily includes some consideration of methodology, such consideration does not normally provide more than a small proportion of the paper's content. An overly long explanation of why particular norms and standards have been chosen detracts from discussion of substance. Exceptions are made where the underlying philosophical conventions of technical standards are being challenged in the name of innovation.
5 Papers whose conclusions merely offer scores along, or describe relationships between chosen empirical measures, with commentary on the efficaciousness of techniques adopted in measurement, are not suitable for publication in this journal. Exceptions are made where authors present a technical or methodological critique of a particular tool of analysis, thus carrying forward an important debate which engages more than one area of scientific interest.
6 Studies based on laboratory experiments are normally unacceptable unless presented with confirmatory field data. Studies referring to simulation exercises involving students or others without experiential knowledge of the simulated context are particularly discouraged.
7 Field-study results are more likely to be accepted if they use more than a single technique of data collection and analysis. Further, authors strengthen the validity of, for example, questionnaire scales or constructs tracked over time and space by considering multiple influences in the context of the field study.
8 Papers which simply report the findings of studies which use cross-sectional designs and self-report questionnaire measures are discouraged although where a study is particularly innovative or novel such a design may, in exceptional circumstances, be justified. Authors are encouraged to indicate how this requirement is met in their covering letter.
9 Success in publication rests on how well the paper contributes in both social and conceptual relevance. Authors indicate the implications of their findings for the readers' intelligent understanding of the social issue being studied. In their conclusions, authors also assert a conceptual contribution made to the theoretical framework in which their work is couched.

PROCESSING OF MANUSCRIPTS AND PRODUCTION
Upon submission, the Editors make an initial judgment about the suitability of the manuscript for review. Suitable manuscripts are then sent to three reviewers. After these reviewers make their recommendations on a manuscript, the editors reach a final judgment. Every effort is made to complete the review process within four months of receipt of a manuscript.
If your paper is accepted for publication, a statement transferring copyright from the authors (or their employers, if they hold the copyright) to The Tavistock Institute will be required.
One set of proofs is sent to the designated author. Corrections should be restricted to typographical errors. The publisher reserves the right to disallow any other changes, as these may involve expensive resetting and delays.
Each author of papers published in human relations will receive one free printed copy of the issue concerned. 25 offprints of the paper will be supplied to the first-named author of the article (to be shared between the authors). The journal makes no page charges to authors.
