Instructions to Authors
Authors are encouraged to contact the editor, Priscilla R. Ebersole, at the address given below. Before submitting a manuscript for review, briefly describe the content of your manuscript and the experience and knowledge that qualify you to discuss the subject. Summarize in about 35 words the main points you plan to make.
Geriatric Nursing is a refereed journal. Manuscripts are reviewed by at least two editorial advisors and by the editor. Enclose a self-addressed, stamped envelope for return of manuscripts that are not accepted.
Letters to the editor are encouraged. Please double-space letters and include a phone number for verification.
Manuscript Preparation
Preparation of a manuscript according to the following guidelines will expedite review and publication. Submit three copies of the manuscript and supporting materials (abstract, reference list, tables, figures, and figure legends). Type the manuscript on good quality white bond paper, (8 1/2 x 11 inches) on one side of the page only, with liberal margins (at least 1 inch on all sides). Use double spacing throughout the paper, including title page, abstract, text, acknowledgments, references, tables, and figure legends. Length of the manuscript depends on the nature of the content, but brevity—about 8 to 10 pages—is desirable. All pages should be numbered consecutively (beginning with the title page) in the upper right-hand corner.
Once a manuscript is accepted, the final version of the manuscript should be submitted on diskette along with three copies of the printout. The author accepts responsibility for the submitted diskette exactly matching the printout of the final version of the manuscript. Guidelines for submission of an accepted manuscript on diskette will be sent to the author by the editorial office.
