About the journal
The Journal of Criminal Justice is an international journal intended to fill the present need for the dissemination of new information, ideas and methods, to both practitioners and academicians in the criminal justice area. TheJournal is concerned with all aspects of the criminal justice system in terms of their relationships to each other. Although materials are presented relating to crime and the individual elements of the criminal justice system, the emphasis of theJournal is to tie together the functioning of these elements and to illustrate the effects of their interactions. Articles that reflect the application of new disciplines or analytical methodologies to the problems of criminal justice are of special interest.
Since the purpose of the Journal is to provide a forum for the dissemination of new ideas, new information, and the application of new methods to the problems and functions of the criminal justice system, the Journal emphasizes innovation and creative thought of the highest quality.

Sources
The Journal follows the Chicago Manual of Style, 14th edition (University of Chicago Press). Use this manual while preparing your manuscript. The following are also useful for reference: Webster's The New International or New Collegiate dictionaries for spelling and hyphenation (Merriam-Webster Inc., Springfield, MA), andThe Merriam Webster Dictionary of English Usage for grammar (Merriam-Webster Inc., Springfield, MA).
Preparation of Manuscript/Disk
Type the manuscript on 8.5 x 11-inch (21.5 x 28 cm) white bond paper with ample margins. Use double spacing throughout, including the reference section. Conciseness in writing is required. Do not repeat data (i.e., generally use either tabular or graphical presentation of a set of data, not both). The authors' names should not appear within the body of the manuscript or on the figures or tables, so that author anonymity may be maintained during the review process (the title page is removed when the manuscript is sent out for review). Organize the manuscript in the order indicated below, with each component beginning on a separate page and with a running title and page number typed in the upper right-hand corner of each page.
1. Title Page: Page 1 should include: (a) the title of the article (eighty spaces maximum); (b) the authors' full names with degrees; (c) affiliations (department [if any], institution, city, and state or country where the work was done), indicating which authors are associated with which affiliations; (d) shortened running title; and (e) the name, address (including city, state, zip code, and country), telephone and fax numbers, and E-mail address of the corresponding author. Please notify the editor of any change of address that occurs while an article is in the process of publication.
2. Abstract and Keywords: Page 2 should include the title of the article followed by the abstract, which should be no more than 150 words in length. The abstract should succinctly state the purpose of the study, basic procedures, most important findings, and principal conclusions, with an emphasis on the new aspects of the study. Page 2 should also include five keywords for indexing.
3. Text: In preparing the text, follow theChicago Manual for style of specific elements in text (e.g., questions of spelling, punctuation, format, etc.). Please pay particular attention to the following style guidelines:
a. First Person: Do not use first person (i.e., we, our, my, I).
b. Percent: Replace the % symbol with the word "percent."
c. Conjunctions: Do not begin sentences with conjunctions (i.e., however, but, and, because).
d. Numbers: Whole numbers from one to one hundred are to be spelled out, unless used with the word "percent," contained within a direct quote, used to identify variables, or used in a list of more than three numbers or number ranges.
e. Dates: All dates are to be written out.
f. Abbreviations: Use abbreviations that appear as word entries in Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary. Use abbreviations for standard Latin terms, statistics, and reference terms in parenthetical material (e.g., i.e.,). Terms appearing frequently within a paper may be abbreviated, but should be spelled out at first mention, with the abbreviation following in parentheses.
g. Paper versus Article/Study: The text of the article is to refer to itself as an article or study, but never as a paper (i.e., "This article measures?" rather than "This paper measures?").
h. Present/Past Tense: It is incorrect to use the present tense when referring to a past study (e.g., "This study examined factors?" not "This study examines factors..."). The study has already been completed; thus, the information and results are in the past tense. It is acceptable to use present tense when referring to results (i.e., "The results indicate?") since these are present-day hypotheses that are being discussed in the present. Specific results, however, are written in the past tense. This rule applies when discussing "an article" as opposed to a "study." The study examined, but the article (which is present now) examines.
i. Quotations: Quotations should be checked for accuracy. Square brackets should be used to indicate insertions into the original text. Omissions from the quoted text should be marked by ellipses.
j. Ethnic/Racial Categories: Capitalize all ethnic/racial categories, unless contained within a direct quote (e.g., White, non-White, Black, African-American, Latino, Asian, etc.).
4. Notes: Notes should be called out in the text using sequential superscript numbers and typed in a separate section after the text, entitled "Notes." Notes should be kept to a minimum and used only for substantive observations. Source citations are made within the text, not the notes.
5. Acknowledgements: Acknowledgement of grant support and/or individuals who were of direct help in the preparation of the paper, as well as information regarding previous symposium presentations of the paper should be compiled into a separate section entitled "Acknowledgements," and placed before the References.
6. References: This journal follows the reference style of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th edition, 2001, Washington, DC: APA). Following the APA Manual, identify all source references at the appropriate point in the text by the author/date system, and list the references at the end of the manuscript in alphabetical order, double spaced. All references that are cited in the text must appear in the reference list. Conversely, all references that appear in the reference list must be cited in the text. It is imperative that all information is accurate. Make certain that the text citation and reference list entry are identical in spelling and year (this includes the spelling of all authors' names). Entries in the reference list should contain the following: (a) all authors of the work, with surnames and initials (not full name); (b) the year of publication; (c) title of article, chapter, or book; (d) facts of publication (for journals--complete journal name, volume number, inclusive pages; for books--city of publication and complete publisher's name). Examples follow (see later for additional examples). For others, consult the APA Manual.

Please note the following system of references is used: in the body of the text, a paper is referred to by the author's surname, with the year in parentheses, e.g., Smithson (1968). If there is more than one work by an author in a given year, label them alphabetically within each year, e.g., Hall (1967a). If an article is referenced more than one time, cite appropriate page numbers in the text, e.g., (Jones, 1969, p. 347).
7. Cases Cited: For references to legal cases in the text, cite the name of the case (italicized) and the year of the decision, for example, Cordero v. Coughlin (1984). The full case citation which includes the source volume, reporter, and page reference should be typed alphabetically by case name in a Cases Cited bibliography at the end of the article according to the following examples (refer to end for additional examples):
Cordero v. Coughlin, 607 F. Supp. 9 (S.D.N.Y. 1984).
Hillman v. Columbia County, 164 Wis. 2d 376, 474 N.W. 2d 913 (1991).

Wood v. Ostrander, 879 F. 2d 583 (9th Cir. 1989), cert. denied, 498 U.S. 938 (1990).
8. Tables: Type each table, double-spaced, on a separate sheet of paper (not on disk) and place at the end of the manuscript following the references. If the table must exceed one typewritten page, duplicate all headings on the second sheet. Very wide tables are difficult and expensive to typeset and should be avoided by dividing the data into smaller tables. Every table should have a title, and every column in the table, including the left-hand column, should have an abbreviated heading. Define all abbreviations, and indicate the units of measurement for all values. Use only horizontal rules to separate sections. Explain all empty spaces or dashes. Indicate footnotes to the table with superscript letters (a, b, c, etc.) cited in alphabetical order as you read the table horizontally. Use *, **, ***, etc., for statistics in the table body and footnotes. If data from any other published source are used, obtain permission for their use and cite the source in a footnote to the table. All tables must be cited in the text. Number tables in the order in which they are cited in the text. All data cited in the text should be checked carefully against the data in the tables to ensure that they correspond.
9. Figure Legends: Legends should be typed double-spaced and numbered with Arabic numerals corresponding to the illustrations. All figures must be cited in the text. Number figures in the order in which they are cited in the text. When symbols, arrows, numbers, or letters are used to identify parts of the illustration, each should be explained clearly in the legend. The legends should permit the figures to be understood without reference to the text. If the figure has been previously published, obtain permission for its use, and include a credit line.
10.Figures: Line diagrams should be produced on a high-resolution printer (600 dpi or greater) or in the form of glossy prints. Half-tone pictures should be supplied as original artwork or glossy, black-and-white 5 x 7-inch photographs in a protective envelope. Letters, numbers, and symbols should be clear throughout and should be large enough to remain legible if reduced for publication. Be sure that all spelling is correct, that there are no broken letters or uneven type, and that abbreviations used are consistent with those in the text. Figures should be identified on the reverse with figure number and author(s) name, and when necessary, the top should be clearly marked. Do not write directly on the back of the photographs. Do not trim, mount, clip, or staple the illustrations.
Submitting Disks: Authors should provide the editorial office with an electronic copy of the initial submission of the paper and any subsequent revision of that paper to assist in the review process. In order to speed publication, and ensure accuracy, authors are requested to submit a computer disk containing the final version of the paper (i.e., after acceptance) along with the final double-spaced manuscript hard copy of the paper to the editorial office. Instructions will be supplied once a manuscript has been reviewed, revised, and accepted. Authors should observe the following criteria: The disk and hard copy must match exactly. (a) The software used must be specified, including which release (e.g., Microsoft Word 6.0 or Word Perfect 6.0). (b) The file should follow the general instructions on style and format, and in particular, the reference style of this journal as specified above. (c) The hard copy and the electronic file should be double spaced and the wraparound end-of-line feature should be used (i.e., no returns at the end of each line). All paragraphs should be indented. Place two returns after every element such as title, headings, paragraphs, and figure legends. (d) Automatic numbering or footnoting features must not be used. (e) The author should maintain a backup file for reference and safety.
Review Process: Manuscripts are examined by the Editor and external reviewers. Decisions of the Editor are final. The authors will remain anonymous to the reviewers. All material accepted for publication is subject to copyediting.
