Manuscript Presentation
The language of the Journal is English. The manuscripts should conform to the conventions specified in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (6th Edition, 2010). They should be printed on A4 paper, one side only, leaving adequate margins on all sides. Please double-space all material, including references in order to allow editorial commentary.

The Journal has adopted a blind reviewing policy. Authors should use separate pages for all identifying information (name, affiliation, references or footnotes to ones own work, etc). These pages will be removed before the manuscript is sent to the reviewers. The reviewers will also remain anonymous.
Abstract

Key Words
Five to ten key words or short phrases should be provided in alphabetical order.
Figures and Tables
All figures and tables must be submitted on different pages. The author should specify where s/he wishes them to appear in the text.
Processing of Manuscripts
After the receipt of the manuscript, the Editor-in-Chief examines whether it falls within the journals domain and complies with its style requirements. If it does not fall in the journals domain the Editor-in-Chief returns the manuscript to the author without further consideration. If the manuscript falls in the journals domain but does not comply with the journals style requirement, it is returned to the author before the reviewing process continuous.
If the manuscript is considered appropriate, the Editor-in-Chief notifies the author and sends it to at least two reviewers. The reviewers are chosen based on their expertise on the subject. When the reviewers complete their reviews, the Editor-in-Chief informs the author whether the paper:
- Has been accepted.
- Needs some substantial revision and will be re-evaluated by the reviewers.
- Has been rejected.
The Editor-in-Chief will also forward the reviewers evaluations to the author. If the manuscript is accepted a final version of the paper will be requested.
Final submission of manuscripts
Once the manuscript has been accepted, the author should submit the final version of the manuscript. Please note the following:
- Manuscripts should be submitted in PC Word.
- Figures and tables should be submitted in separate files.
- The file should follow the general instructions on style.
- The file should use the wrap-around end-of-line feature (i.e. no returns at the end of each line). All textual elements should begin flush left, no paragraph indents. Place two returns after every element such as title, headings, paragraphs, figure and table.
- Proofs are sent to the first-named author. Authors should return their corrected proofs within 7 days of receipt by mail in order to avoid delay in the production schedule.
