Correspondence on editorial matters, and general inquiries should be directed to William Pasmore, Editor, at jabs@exchange.tc.columbia.edu. As its style guide, JABS uses the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (6th ed.). All manuscripts must meet the requirements of style established in this manual. All manuscripts must be double-spaced (including lengthy quotations, endnotes, references, tables, and appendix materials). Manuscripts should not exceed 30 pages, including abstract, references, tables and figures. Margins must be at least one inch on all sides. Each table and figure must appear on a separate page, with its location indicated in the text (e.g., "Table I about here") on a separate line. On a cover page, provide the manuscript title, the names of all authors, and all authors' professional titles, affiliations, and complete addresses, including phone and fax numbers. The cover page should also include any acknowledgements, credits, and grant information. To ensure anonymous review of the manuscript, do not include on any other pages any information that could identify authorship. Following the cover page, provide a page with the article title and an abstract of no more than 150 words. Do not use footnotes; provide endnotes on a separate page immediately following the text, under the heading NOTES. Endnotes should offer significant statements, not merely cite references. JABS editor, William Pasmore, informs the author directly of a publication decision following review, which normally takes about 12 weeks. JABS follows a blind review process in which reviewers are not informed of authors' identities, and authors are not informed of reviewers' identities. Copies of reviewers' comments are mailed to authors whose submissions undergo blind review. Manuscripts based on papers presented at meetings are welcome. Articles published previously-whether in the US. or abroad-are not acceptable for JABS. Policy is against simultaneous submission. Submission of a manuscript clearly implies a commitment to seek publication in JABS alone. The reviewers devote considerable effort to evaluating manuscripts, with no compensation except the opportunity to read papers and the knowledge that they are serving the profession. Based on standards long established for scholarly and professional journals, NTL Institute regards the submission of manuscripts to JABS that are simultaneously submitted to other publications as unacceptable. Articles accepted for publication are generally published in the order in which they are accepted. JABS reserves the right to copy edit manuscripts prior to publication (authors receive the opportunity to review such copy editing). Authors of manuscripts accepted for publication must supply camera-ready artwork for any figures accompanying their articles. All articles published in JABS become the property of NTL Institute.
