Instructions to Authors
Manuscript submission
All submissions should be made online at the JSPR SAGETRACK website.
Please log onto the website. If you are a new user, you will first need to create an account. This is a 3-step system that takes a matter of minutes to set up. Log-in information is sent via email immediately upon completion. Full instructions for uploading the manuscript are provided on the website. If you have already created an account but have forgotten your details type your email address in the 'Password Help' to receive an emailed reminder.
Submissions should be made via the Author Center and the 'Click here to Submit a New Manuscript' option.

If you would like to discuss your paper prior to submission, please contact the Editor, Dr Paul A. Mongeau, at the following email address: JSPR@ASU.edu
Please ensure that your Microsoft Word or RTF document does NOT include a title page, an abstract, or page numbers; the JSPR SAGETRACK system will generate them for you, and then convert your manuscript to PDF for peer review. Furthermore, it is imperative that authors remove from their submissions any information that will identify them or their affiliations to reviewers.
All correspondence, including notification of the Editor's decision and requests for revisions, will be by e-mail.
Revisions
Authors submitting revised manuscripts should follow the instructions above to submit through the SAGETRACK system. However, if the first versions were submitted prior to SAGETRACK, the system will not know automatically about the previous version. In such cases, authors should check the 'Has this manuscript been submitted previously?' box and give the previous manuscript number in the space below. (If the previous version was submitted through the SAGETRACK system, following the instructions to submit a revised manuscript will automatically associate your revised version with the original submission) Authors of all revised submissions should when prompted provide information explaining the changes in your manuscript. As this will be provided to reviewers it is important that authors do not identify themselves in these responses.
General guidelines
The Journal of Social and Personal Relationships welcomes submission of articles on all aspects of social and personal relationships from any academic discipline on the understanding that these are original articles not under consideration by other journals. Articles may deal with voluntary or non-voluntary relationship forms and may use qualitative or quantitative methods. Articles using qualitative methods are particularly encouraged. Empirical, review, and theoretical articles are invited. Manuscripts will be sent anonymously for review by independent referees and so all material identifying the author should be confined to the title page. Papers from graduate students or recent PhDs are especially welcomed and will, if the authors explicitly request it and submit one extra copy, receive extra attention (i.e. one additional reviewer).
Copyright
It is a condition of publication that authors assign copyright in their articles and abstracts to SAGE Publications Ltd. Authors are responsible for obtaining copyright permission for reproducing any illustrations, tables, figures or lengthy quotations previously published elsewhere.
Format
When submitting a paper please follow the style of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th edition).
Manuscripts: The title page of an article should contain only:
(1) the title of the article
(2) a short title not exceeding 40 letters and spaces, used for the running heads;
Abstracts: An abstract of no more than 120 words should follow the title page on a separate page.
Keywords: Up to 6 keywords should be included.
Footnotes: or endnotes, apart from the opening page Author Note and correspondence address, should not be used.
References: The Journal particularly cautions authors to the judicious, precise, and scholarly (as distinct from bibliographic) use of references. JSPR therefore encourages authors to balance conciseness in the use of references with the requirements of rigorous scholarship by using references to make points rather than to indicate familiarity. Citations that are the subject or direct object of verbs are preferred (e.g. 'Dindia (1994) argues that . . .'), as are those citations that are incorporated into the grammatical structure of sentences (e.g. 'this finding supports the arguments of Pettit and Mize (1993) who claimed that . . .'). ESPECIALLY AND VERY STRONGLY DISCOURAGED are long, undifferentiated lists of references tacked on to the end of sentences. If all these references make the same point, then one example will suffice and if they make different points then the differences need to be discussed. All references cited in the text should be collated into a single alphabetical list at the end of the article, using the style and format of the most recent edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (APA).
Tables and figures: Should be numbered separately and have short descriptive titles. The position of the table or figure in the text should be indicated in the text e.g. 'Table 3 about here'. Tables and figures will only be presented if they are necessary for the presentation and clarity of results. Half-tone figures should be presented in camera-ready format to fit the page size of 110mm wide x 187mm deep, and if possible, as EPS files (all fonts embedded) or TIFF files, 800 dpi - b/w only.
Proofs and Electronic offprints
Authors will receive proofs of their articles for checking prior to publication. After publication, an e-mail detailing access to a restricted quantity pdf will be sent to the corresponding author of each article along with a copy of the printed journal for each author.
