Submission Guidelines
Electronic submissions are strongly encouraged. Submissions should be sent to HEReview@msu.edu with a copy to LKalof@msu.edu. The Editor will make the final decision whether to accept, not accept, or request revision of the paper. Manuscripts will be reviewed with the clear understanding that the paper has not been previously published and is not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Any figure, table, or more than 50 running words of text from previously published material must be accompanied in the final submission for publication by a written permission to publish by the copyright holder. Once the manuscript has been accepted for publication in Human Ecology Review , a copyright form will be sent to the corresponding author as the acting agent for any coauthors. Page proofs will be sent to the corresponding author.
Manuscript Organization
Title page containing the title of the manuscript, authors' names, affiliations, and mailing addresses; Abstract (150 words or less with 3 to 5 key words); text (free of any information that could identify the author); Endnotes; Acknowledgments; References; Tables and Figures. The entire manuscript should be free of any underlining or boldface type; use italics only for emphasis and in references (see below). Headings should be centered with initial capitalization only, subheadings should be flush left.
Tables and Figures
Tables should be clear and concise, and should be able to "stand alone" i.e., complete headings and footnotes should be used to clarify entries. Figures should be of professional quality and ready for publication. Figures that are not available on disk will be scanned electronically for final production. To have clear, precise reproduction, all figures should be original proofs. Photographs must be glossy prints. All tables and figures should be referred to in the text and notation should be made in the manuscript indicating approximately where each should be placed.
References
Citation of references in the text should follow this format: Henry (1998) or (Henry and Wright 1997) or (Henry et al. 1996, 22-24) or (Henry 1995, 1998; Wright 1994). The list of references should be arranged alphabetically by author. All authors of a work must be listed. Multiple citations by the same author[s] in the reference list should be listed by name rather than --------.
