Submitting an Article
(1) Articles should include the title, abstract, and key
words but not the author's name or any other identifying
information, and should be formatted as described below.
(2) An e-mail message with the article as an attachment
to African Americans In Gerontology should be
sent to
info@blacksngerontology.org. Use "Submission" as
the subject in the email address block. The message
should include (1) the author’s name, (2) the title of
the article, (3) an abstract of no more than 150 words,
and (4) any relevant information about the author,
including institutional affiliation, mailing and e-mail
addresses.
Once you have prepared your paper observing the
formatting, attach it to the e-mail message and click
"Send." An acknowledgement will be sent indicating that
the paper has been received.
Submission Requirements
Articles for submission must be
previously unpublished and in English. Papers should be
well-written, and we encourage grace as well as clarity.
It is important that papers be copy-edited carefully
before submission. Drafts are not acceptable. In
submitting work to African Americans In Gerontology,
authors agree to the policies of this journal, including
free access and use of the material published in it
with, of course, proper acknowledgment of authorship and
source. If you have any questions about whether your
article is appropriate for AAIG, send it
directly to the editor for a preliminary review.
All articles will be blind-refereed except when invited.
The decision of the editorial board is final. Articles
accepted for publication will be copyrighted by
African Americans In Gerontology.
Because African Americans In Gerontology rely
on the generosity of scholars who contribute their time
to review articles, we ask that authors not submit their
work to other journals at the same time. By using
computer technology throughout, we expect that the
review process will move quickly and that authors will
be notified in a reasonable time.
