Authors can normally expect an initial editorial decision within two months following the date of receipt by the editor.

Proofs. Proofs will be sent to authors by e-mail. They should be corrected and returned to the editor within three days. Major alterations to the text cannot be accepted.

Offprints. Each corresponding author will receive 50 reprints of their article and one complimentary issue upon registration with Rightslink, our authorized reprint provider. Authors will need to create a unique account and register with Rightslink for this free service. The link is provided at the time of page proof review. Complimentary reprints are not available post publication.

Copyright. It is a condition of publication that authors vest or license copyright in their articles, including abstracts, in the Central States Communication Association. This enables the publisher to ensure full copyright protection and to disseminate the article and the journal to the widest possible readership in print and electronic formats as appropriate. Authors may, of course, use the article elsewhere after publication provided that prior permission be obtained from Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. Authors are themselves responsible for obtaining permission to reproduce copyright material from other sources.
