Bibliographic citations in the text must include the author's last name and the date of publication and may include page references. Complete bibliographic information for each citation must be included in the list of references. Examples of correct styling for bibliographic citations are: Brown (1973), Ingram (1976, pp. 54-55), Smith and Miller (1966), (Smith & Miller, 1966), (Peterson, Danner, & Flavell, 1972), and subsequently (Peterson et al., 1972).

Preparation of the manuscript
The entire manuscript, including notes and references, should be typed double-spaced on 8.5 x 11" or A4 paper, with margins set to accommodate approximately 70 characters per line and 25 lines per page. Manuscript pages should be numbered consecutively. Each element of the article should begin on a new page and should be arranged as follows: title page (title, short title, author's full name, affiliation, and mailing address), abstract, text, appendices, acknowledgments, notes, references, tables and figures.
Each table and figure should be submitted on a separate page and should be titled. Figures should be ready for photographic reproduction; they cannot be redrawn by the publisher. Charts, graphs, or other artwork should be professionally rendered or computer generated. Photographs should be glossy black-and-white prints; 8 x 10" enlargements are preferred. All labels and details on figures should be clearly printed and large enough to remain legible after a 50% reduction.

Copyediting and proofreading
The publisher reserves the right to copyedit and proofread all articles accepted for publication. The lead author will review the copyedited manuscript only if changes have been substantial. Page proof of an article will be sent to the lead author for correction of typographical errors only; authors must notify the editorial office of any changes within 48 hours or approval will be assumed.
The Fifth Edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association should be consulted for instructions on aspects of manuscript preparation and style not covered in these instructions. The Editors may find it necessary to return manuscripts for reworking and retyping that do not conform to requirements.
The lead author will receive a high-quality PDF of his or her article without charge; offprints may be purchased if ordered at the proof stage.
Submission of an article implies that it has not been published elsewhere. Authors are responsible for obtaining written permission to publish material (quotations, illustrations, etc.) for which they do not own the copyright.
