Title Page

To facilitate an anonymous review, a separate title page should be prepared carrying the article's title, author's full name, current position, affiliation, mailing address and telephone and fax number(s). The first page of the manuscript should only carry the title and no mention should be made of the author's name. Any acknowledgements should also be included on the first page with asterisk.

The headings in the text should not be numbered or preceded by letters. Main headings should be typed in capitals and centered on the page, secondary headings should start flush at the left margin and be typed in small letters with major words capitalized. Lower level leads should be in the form of paragraph headings with only the initial word capitalized followed by a period and then the text on the same line. Lower level headings should be underlined. Dividing manuscripts into more than three levels of subheadings should be avoided.

Notes, Appendices, Tables and Figures

Notes should not be used to cite references (see References below). Any notes to supplement discussion in the text should be numbered consecutively and placed at the end of the paper under the heading "Notes". Likewise, appendices, tables and figures should be numbered and placed at the end following "Notes" and "References". The positioning of the tables and figures in the paper should be indicated in the text as follows.

References

Reference to a publication should be made in the text by citing the name of the author and the year of publication, observing the following convention:

1. When the name of the author is used in the text, only indicate the date in parentheses, e.g., "Crozier (1964)..."
2. When the name of the author does not appear in the text, include in parantheses both the name of the author and the year of publication separated with a comma. If more than one publication is cited, the authors' names should appear in alphabetical order and be separated by semicolons, e.g., "...(Mintzberg, 1983; Pfeffer and Salancık, 1978)..."
3. When a publication has more than two authors, cite only the name of the first author, followed by "et al.," e.g., "...(Christensen et al.,1985)..."
4. In all cases, if page numbers are to be given, indicate them following the year of publication separated by a colon, e.g., "...Thompson, (1967:34)..."
