Manuscript Submission Guidelines

Professional Studies Review  (PSR) welcomes the submission of articles on any area of professional studies or career-oriented disciplines. Articles should provide readers with new and valuable research results, stimulate their thinking about developments in their fields, and perhaps provide a critical forum for further discussion and scholarship. Scholars may also explore issues that cut across specialized boundaries, that consider teaching philosophies and methods, or that challenge traditional viewpoints. All critical approaches of interest will be considered.

  1. Please submit your article as a Microsoft Word file attachment to marottaj@stjohns.edu.
  2. Your article should be accompanied by a statement indicating that the article is not under consideration by another journal or publisher.
  3. Articles should be double-spaced, and should adhere to the manuscript conventions of the American Psychological Association, (5th ed.) Style Manual.
  4. Articles are reviewed blindly by referees, so please do not include identifying information except on the cover page. The cover page should include the academic or professional title (if any), name of the author(s), academic or professional address, telephone number, email address, and a brief biographic statement. A second page should present an abstract of the article in no more than 100 words. Do not number the cover page or abstract page.
  5. Articles should not exceed 6000 words maximum in length (approximately 12 to 20 manuscript pages, including charts, tables, photographs, and references).

PSR reserves the right to make editorial changes when necessary (e.g. for space requirements). Contributors of published articles will receive a complimentary copy of the issue that contains their articles, as well as the opportunity for reprints.
