Author Guidelines

Author’s Style Guide for Journal of Somaesthetics

0. The length of paper should be betweem 5000 and 8000 words (including title, literature lists and endnotes)

1.Format Text and first page information

  • On the first page, put your paper’s Title and your name as you wish it to appear in print.

  • Contact information appears after author name: Name, Academic Title, Academic Address, email.  If the author wishes correspondence to be sent to a non-academic address, that information goes after the academic information.

  • After contact information, put your abstract of between 60 and 90 words.


2.Punctuation and Spelling

  • Use Times New Roman, 12-point font

  • Use Double quotation marks for quotations

  • Please use American rather than British English unless quoted material is otherwise

  • Punctuation (commas, periods, question and exclamation marks) should come before close quotation marks, not after.

3. Internal Section Numbering

  • Only use 1.  2.   3.  etc for internal sections.  

  • You may have section titles, thus:  3. Hume’s Argument against Miracles <in bold>

  • Do not use subsections such as A. B. C.   or   2.1  2.2  2.3  etc.

 

4. Format acknowledgements, footnotes and check for style of citation

  • Please use APA style (6th edition) for references and the reference list

  • Acknowledgements go first, then References. DO NOT footnote the title, or the paper’s first sentence, or the last sentence of the text in order to make acknowledgements. Convert such things into Acknowledgements that have their own separate paragraph after the end of your paper.

  • Set off longer quotations in block quote with a blank line before and after the quotation.

  • Do not use obscure abbreviations such as cf. or ff. or op. cit. anywhere in the text or endnotes.
