Preparation of Manuscript

All parts of the manuscript should be doublespaced, with margins of at least one inch on all sides. Number manuscript pages consecutively throughout the paper. Authors should also supply a shortened version of the title suitable for the running head, not exceeding 50 character spaces. Each article should be summarized in an abstract of not more that 100 words. Avoid abbreviations, diagrams, and reference to the text. On the title page, include full names of authors, academic and/or other professional affiliations, and the complete address, telephone number, fax number, and e-mail address of the author to whom proofs and correspondence should be sent. Citations in the text are by number in brackets. Full citations should be arranged numerically, double-spaced, and must conform to The Chicago Manual of Style, 15th edition.
