Submission Guidelines

Manuscripts must be original work and not have appeared in print previously. Since the Journal of Thought is a refereed, peer-reviewed publication, manuscripts are submitted for blind review to two or more reviewers.  When submitting materials, two files are needed: (1) the title page and (2) the manuscript itself.

Title Page

The title page should include:

• The name(s) of the author(s)
• A concise and informative title
• The affiliation(s) and address(es) of the author(s)
• The e-mail address, telephone and fax numbers of corresponding author
• A short biography (1-2 sentences) for each author included in the manuscript

Manuscript

Manuscripts should normally be between 4000 and 7000 words, including references, abstract (100-200 words), and tables.

Complete, formatted references, text citations, and notes should be provided according to the Chicago Manual of Style (15^th Edition) or the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5^th Edition). If the Chicago Manual of Style is used, the author-date-page system is strongly encouraged, i.e., a text citation with author-date-page given, e. g. (Dewey 1938, 111). See Chicago Manual of Style page 597. When the APA Manual is used, always state the page number(s) in a text citation, e.g., (Dewey, 1938, p. 111).  See APA Manual page 118 Quotation 1.

Please do not include any of your personal information (name, affiliation, etc.) anywhere in the manuscript.

All manuscripts must be submitted electronically in .doc or .docx format.  Before submitting, please read the evaluation rubric. To submit your manuscript, please press here.
