 STYLE SHEET Manuscript Preparation: Prepare the manuscript in Microsoft Word for PCs. Place title and name of author on a separate title page. Double-space manuscript, abstract, notes, and indented quotations. Print the manuscript, including notes, in 12 point type. Leave at least one inch margins and use standard (8”x11”) paper. Place notes at the end of the article, not at the foot of the page. Prepare each table/figure on a separate page, with placement indicated in text between paragraphs. Number pages consecutively. Maximum length, including tables, figures, and notes, is 10,000 words for articles and 6,000 words for research notes. Tables/Figures: Tables/figures should be restricted to no more than 1 per 10 pages of the manuscript. For review, include the tables/figures with the text. For publication, save each table/figure in a separate .rtf (Rich Text Format) digital file, identified by table/figure number. Prepare tables/figures in black and white only. General Style: The journal follows the style outlined in the University of Chicago Manual of Style for text and tables. Spell out numbers up to one hundred in text (except percentages). Use 12 point times new roman type. Section headings and subheadings should be in roman boldface type. Book and periodical titles and foreign words should be italicized. Notes: For books, include full names of authors and editors, title, city, publisher, and date. For journals, include volume number, month of issue, and year. For newspapers, include name and date. For titles in non-western-European languages, give translated title in brackets. Sample Notes:
