>addresses. To facilitate masked review, the author's name should not
>appear elsewhere in the manuscript. If the manuscript is based on
>dissertation research, a funded project, or a paper presented at a
>professional meeting, a note on the title page should provide the relevant
>facts. A shortened version of the title suitable for a Running Head should
>be typed flush left at the top of the title page and should appear on all
>pages of the manuscript. The author is responsible for removing
>identifying information from the body of the manuscript as well.

>Each manuscript will receive a masked review by 3 reviewers selected for
>their expertise on specific topics and methodology dealt with in the
>manuscript. Authors can usually expect a decision within three months.
>Manuscripts may be returned to their authors for at least one round of
>revision before final acceptance.
