Manuscript requirements

Please prepare your manuscript before submission, using the following guidelines.
|
Article files should be provided in Microsoft Word format. LaTex files can be used if an accompanying PDF document is provided. PDF as a sole file type is not accepted, a PDF must be accompanied by the source file. Acceptable figure file types are listed further below. |
Article length |
Articles should be a maximum of 6,000 words in length. This includes all text including references and appendices. Please allow 280 words for each figure or table. (For instance, if an article has 5,000 words and two tables, then the total sum of words will be: 5,000 + 280 + 280 = 5,560 words) |
Article title |
A title of not more than eight words should be provided. |
Author details |
All contributing authors’ names should be added to the ScholarOne submission, and their names arranged in the correct order for publication. IMPORTANT- all authors (both the corresponding and co-authors) are required to have a valid ORCiD in order to publish in this journal. Submitting authors should ensure that all relevant ORCiDs are captured as part of the submission process. In order to obtain your ORCiD, please follow this link: https://orcid.org/register
|
Biographies and acknowledgements |
Authors who wish to include these items should save them together in an MS Word file to be uploaded with the submission. If they are to be included, a brief professional biography of not more than 100 words should be supplied for each named author. |
Structured abstract |
Authors must supply a structured abstract in their submission, both via the online submission system and within the Word document as per the below sub-headings (see our "How to... write an abstract" guide for practical help and guidance):
Maximum is 250 words in total (including keywords and article classification, see below). |
Keywords |
Authors should provide appropriate and short keywords in the ScholarOne submission that encapsulate the principal topics of the paper (see the How to... ensure your article is highly downloaded guide for practical help and guidance on choosing search-engine friendly keywords). The maximum number of keywords is 12. |
Article classification |
Authors must categorize their paper as part of the ScholarOne submission process. The category which most closely describes their paper should be selected from the list below. |
Headings |
Headings must be concise, with a clear indication of the distinction between the hierarchy of headings. |
Notes/endnotes |
Notes or endnotes should be used only if absolutely necessary and must be identified in the text by consecutive numbers, enclosed in square brackets and listed at the end of the article. |
Figures |
All Figures (charts, diagrams, line drawings, web pages/screenshots, and photographic images) should be submitted in electronic form.
|
Tables |
Tables should be typed and included in a separate file to the main body of the article. The position of each table should be clearly labelled in the body text of article with corresponding labels being clearly shown in the separate file. |
Supplementary files |
Where tables, figures, appendices, and other additional content are supplementary to the article but not critical to the reader’s understanding of it, you can choose to host these supplementary files alongside your article on Insight, Emerald’s content hosting platform, or on an institutional or personal repository. All supplementary material must be submitted prior to acceptance. If you choose to host your supplementary files on Insight, you must submit these as separate files alongside your article. Files should be clearly labelled in such a way that makes it clear they are supplementary; Emerald recommends that the file name is descriptive and that it follows the format ‘Supplementary_material_appendix_1’ or ‘Supplementary tables’. All supplementary material must be mentioned at the appropriate moment in the main text of the article, there is no need to include the content of the file but only the file name. A link to the supplementary material will be added to the article during production, and the material will be made available alongside the main text of the article at the point of EarlyCite publication. Please note that Emerald will not make any changes to the material; it will not be copyedited, typeset, and authors will not receive proofs. Emerald therefore strongly recommends that you style all supplementary material ahead of acceptance of the article. Emerald Insight can host the following file types and extensions:
If you choose to use an institutional or personal repository, you should ensure that the supplementary material is hosted on the repository ahead of submission, and then include a link only to the repository within the article. It is the responsibility of the submitting author to ensure that the material is free to access and that it remains permanently available. Please note that extensive supplementary material may be subject to peer review; this is at the discretion of the journal Editor and dependent on the content of the material (for example, whether including it would support the reviewer making a decision on the article during the peer review process). |
References |
References to other publications must be in APA style and carefully checked for completeness, accuracy and consistency. This is very important in an electronic environment because it enables your readers to exploit the Reference Linking facility on the database and link back to the works you have cited through CrossRef. Invert all authors’ names; give surnames and initials for up to and including seven authors. When authors number eight or more, include the first six authors’ names, then insert three ellipsis points, and add the last author’s name. For example: Gilbert, D. G., McClernon, J. F., Rabinovich, N. E., Sugai, C., Plath, L. C., Asgaard, G., … Botros, N. (2004). Effects of quitting smoking on EEG activation and attention last for more than 31 days and are more severe with stress, dependence, DRD2 A 1 allele, and depressive traits. Nicotine and Tobacco Research, 6, 249–267. doi:1 0.1 080/1462220041 0001676305. For references with the same surname and initials but different first name provide the first name as follows:
Text citation to be given as follows: (Paul Janet, 1876) (Pierre Janet, 1906) For references of two or more primary authors with the same surname, include the first author's initials in all text citations, even if the year of publication differs.
Examples of text citation: Among studies, we review M.A. Light and Light (2008). I. Light (2006) studies this concept. If two references of more than three surnames with the same year shorten to the same form e.g. both Ireys, Chernoff, DeVet, & Kim, 2001, and Ireys, Chernoff, Stein, DeVet, & Silver, 2001 shorten to Ireys et al., 2001) Then cite the surnames of the first authors and of as many of the subsequent authors as necessary to distinguish the two references, followed by a comma and et al.: Ireys, Chernoff, DeVet, et al. (2001) and Ireys, Chernoff, Stein, et al. (2001)
Use Arabic numerals even if some volume numbers of books and journals are given in roman numerals (e.g. Vol. 3 not Vol. III). |
