Instructions to Authors
Submit manuscripts electronically through the Manuscript Submission Portal (.rtf, .doc, or .pdf files).
Sherry Hamby, PhD Research Professor Department of Psychology Sewanee: The University of the South Sewanee, TN 37383 Email
In addition to addresses and phone numbers, please supply email addresses and fax numbers for use by the editorial office and later by the production office. Most correspondence between the editorial office and authors is handled by email, so a valid email address is important to the timely flow of communication during the editorial process.
Also, please be sure to provide names and contact information for each of your co-authors. Most authors include this information in the cover letter.
Keep a copy of the manuscript to guard against loss.
If you encounter difficulties with submission, please email the Manuscript Coordinator, Katie Weinel.
Authors should verify in their cover letter that manuscripts submitted to Psychology of Violence® have not been published previously and are not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. The cover letter should also describe how the manuscript relates to other publications, if any, based on the same dataset.
Authors of accepted articles will be required to complete APA's Publication Rights form and Full Disclosure of Interests form. All studies involving human participants or animal subjects must also adhere to the Ethical Principles of the American Psychological Association. Authors must disclose any potential conflicts of interest with their research or certify that they have none. All publication forms, as well as information about which forms are required for your particular manuscript, are available on the Forms for Journals Publication page.
In order to facilitate masked review, all manuscripts should have identifying information removed prior to submission. The manuscript portal provides a place to provide all author contact information separate from the manuscript file, or this can be included in the cover letter.
Authors' names should not appear on the manuscript. Authors are strongly encouraged to remove self-references and substitute "author citation" for the purposes of review. This is particularly important when numerous self citations are made, as these can sometimes inadvertently reveal the identity of the authors to the reviewers. Authors' notes or other sources of identifying information should also be removed from the copy submitted for peer review. These may be added later, if the paper is accepted.
Psychology of Violence primarily publishes full-length reports of original research. Manuscripts should normally be no more than 30 double-spaced manuscript pages, inclusive of front matter, references, tables, and figures. Both quantitative and qualitative research will be considered. The journal also publishes review articles, including meta-analyses, and theoretical pieces. Psychology of Violence does not accept brief reports.
Other Manuscript Preparation Guidelines
As also described in Instructions for All Authors, Psychology of Violence manuscripts should be prepared in accordance with the 6th edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (2010). Be careful to follow APA guidelines on the use of inclusive, nonbiased language.
Please note that Psychology of Violence has several style requirements, in order to facilitate the accessibility of information both within and across manuscripts. All manuscripts that remain under consideration at Psychology of Violence will be asked to include the following:
· The abstract is the most important paragraph in any paper. Psychology of Violence uses structured abstracts divided into the following sections, with headings: Objective, Method, Results, and Conclusions. The Objective should clearly communicate the novel contribution of the manuscript. In the Conclusion, please identify at least one specific implication and avoid boilerplate language such as "Implications will be discussed." Target length is 200 words.
· A statement that clearly describes the study's purpose at the end of the 1st paragraph.
· 4 to 5 keywords for all manuscripts.
· The Introduction needs to end with numbered statements of hypotheses or research purposes, and these need to be explicitly revisited in the Results and Discussion.
· Number of items, response categories, alpha, and scoring need to be presented for all measures. Validity should be addressed.
· The Discussion needs formal sections for Limitations, Research Implications, and Clinical and Policy Implications.
Per APA policy, authors presenting the results of randomized trials should rely on CONSORT guidelines.
Prospective authors are welcome to direct inquiries regarding these instructions, potential paper topics, journal policy, or manuscript preparation to the Editor, Sherry Hamby.
Instructions for All Authors
Prepare manuscripts according to the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (6th edition). Manuscripts may be copyedited for bias-free language (see Chapter 3 of the Publication Manual).
Review APA's Checklist for Manuscript Submission before submitting your article.
If your manuscript was mask reviewed, please ensure that the final version for production includes a byline and full author note for typesetting.
Double-space all copy. Other formatting instructions, as well as instructions on preparing tables, figures, references, metrics, and abstracts, appear in the Manual.
Below are additional instructions regarding the preparation of display equations and tables.
We strongly encourage you to use MathType (third-party software) or Equation Editor 3.0 (built into pre-2007 versions of Word) to construct your equations, rather than the equation support that is built into Word 2007 and Word 2010. Equations composed with the built-in Word 2007/Word 2010 equation support are converted to low-resolution graphics when they enter the production process and must be rekeyed by the typesetter, which may introduce errors.
To construct your equations with MathType or Equation Editor 3.0:
· Go to the Text section of the Insert tab and select Object.
· Select MathType or Equation Editor 3.0 in the drop-down menu.
If you have an equation that has already been produced using Microsoft Word 2007 or 2010 and you have access to the full version of MathType 6.5 or later, you can convert this equation to MathType by clicking on MathType Insert Equation. Copy the equation from Microsoft Word and paste it into the MathType box. Verify that your equation is correct, click File, and then click Update. Your equation has now been inserted into your Word file as a MathType Equation.
Use Equation Editor 3.0 or MathType only for equations or for formulas that cannot be produced as Word text using the Times or Symbol font.
Use Word's Insert Table function when you create tables. Using spaces or tabs in your table will create problems when the table is typeset and may result in errors.
Submitting Supplemental Materials
APA can now place supplementary materials online, available via the published article in the PsycARTICLES® database. Please see Supplementing Your Article With Online Material for more details.
All manuscripts must include an abstract containing a maximum of 250 words typed on a separate page. After the abstract, please supply up to five keywords or brief phrases.
List references in alphabetical order. Each listed reference should be cited in text, and each text citation should be listed in the References section.

It is a violation of APA Ethical Principles to publish "as original data, data that have been previously published" (Standard 8.13).
In addition, APA Ethical Principles specify that "after research results are published, psychologists do not withhold the data on which their conclusions are based from other competent professionals who seek to verify the substantive claims through reanalysis and who intend to use such data only for that purpose, provided that the confidentiality of the participants can be protected and unless legal rights concerning proprietary data preclude their release" (Standard 8.14).
APA expects authors to adhere to these standards. Specifically, APA expects authors to have their data available throughout the editorial review process and for at least 5 years after the date of publication.
Authors are required to state in writing that they have complied with APA ethical standards in the treatment of their sample, human or animal, or to describe the details of treatment.
