Article submissions are no longer accepted.

Author Guidelines

To submit a paper, you need to be logged in. If you are not registered, please complete the registration page. Be sure to register as author (default is reader). Once you are registered as author and logged in, go to your User Home, select Author, and follow the instructions.

Submissions should conform to the suggestions of the APA style guide (most recent version) as spelled out, for example, here. We encourage authors to obtain appropriate permissions to use materials originally produced by others, but do not require such permissions as long as the usage of such materials falls within the boundaries of Fair Use.

Abstracts are required for article submissions. Please be sure to complete the abstract text in the submission's metadata section. When you receive a referee report, please keep in mind that a good report is immensely valuable, even if it tears your paper apart. Each report was prepared without charge by someone whose time you could not buy. Appreciate referee reports, and make use of them. An author who feels insulted and ignores referee reports wastes an invaluable resource and the referees' time.

Only submissions in English are accepted. The size of the submission should not exceed 12,000 words. For further information, please consult the Submission Preparation Checklist. If problems are encountered during the online submission process, manuscripts may also be send as email attachments to submission@anti-matters.org.
