About the journal
|
Statistics & Probability Letters is an international journal covering all fields of statistics and probability, and providing an outlet for rapid publication of short communications in the field.
Many statisticians today are concerned by the labyrinth of research to be conquered in order to reach the specific information they require. To combat this tendency, Statistics & Probability Letters has been designed and conceived outside the realm of the traditional statistics journal. The concise article format (limited to six journal pages including references and figures) permits the editorial board to process papers rapidly and enables the reader to learn about new results and developments efficiently. Concise communications (letters) allow readers to quickly and easily digest large amounts of material and to stay up-to-date with developments in all areas of statistics and probability.
Statistics & Probability Letters is a refereed journal. Apart from the six-page limitation, originality, quality and clarity are the essential criteria for choosing the material to be published in Statistics & Probability Letters. The subject matter can be theory, methodology, empirical studies or applications.
The mainstream of letters focuses on new theorems, statistical methods, and probabilistic or statistical models that the author wants to disseminate very rapidly. Empirical and computational results that are of significant value are published. The Journal also publishes descriptions of applications and case studies that demonstrate a novel use of existing techniques or have interesting innovative ideas about data collection or description, modeling or inference.

Instructions to Authors
(1) Papers must be in English and should not exceed 6 printed pages (i.e. 13 manuscript pages) including diagrams, figures, tables, etc.
(2) Papers for publication should be sent in triplicate to:
Professor Richard A. JOHNSON, Editor
Department of Statistics
University of Wisconsin
1210 West Dayton Street
Madison, WI 53706, USA
Submission of a paper will be held to imply that it contains original unpublished work and is not being submitted for publication elsewhere. All papers submitted will be refereed. The Editor does not accept responsibility for damage or loss of papers submitted.
(3) Manuscripts should be typewritten on one side of the paper only, double-spaced with wide margins. All pages should be numbered consecutively. Tables, references and legends for figures should be typed on separate pages. Titles and subtitles should be short and should not contain long formulae. The author should also provide a list identifying all mathematical symbols which are not typed.
(4) The first page of the manuscript should contain the following information: (i) the title; (ii) the name(s) and institutional affiliation(s) of the author(s); (iii) an abstract of not more than 40 words; and (iv) key words and phrases. A footnote on the same sheet should give the name and present address of the author to whom the reprint order form should be addressed.
(5) Information on grants received should be given in a footnote on the first page of the manuscript, acknowledgments before the references.
(6) Important formulae (displayed) should be numbered consecutively throughout the manuscript as (1), (2), etc. on the right-hand side of the page. Where the derivation of formulae has been abbreviated, it is of great help to referees if the full derivation can be presented on a separate sheet (not to be published).
(7) Footnotes, which should be kept to a minimum and should be brief, must be numbered consecutively.
(8) The references should include only the most relevant papers. In the text, references to publications should appear as follows; "Jones (1980) reported that ..." or, "This problem has been a subject in literature before (e.g. Jones, 1980, p. 102)". The author should make sure that there is a strict "one-to-one correspondence" between the names (years) in the text and those on the list. At the end of the manuscript, the complete references should be listed as follows:
For books and monographs
Rao, C.R. (1973), Linear Statistical Inference and its Applications (Wiley, New York, 2nd ed.).
For contributions to collective works
Akaike, H. (1973), Information theory and an extension of the maximum likelihood principle, in: B.N. Petrov and F. Csáki, eds. Proc. 2nd Internat. Symp. on Information Theory (Akadémia Kiadó, Budapest) pp. 267-281.
For journal articles
Box, G.E.P. (1979), Some problems of statistics and everyday life, J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 74, 1-4.
(9) Illustrations should be provided in triplicate (1 original drawn in black India ink on white paper plus 2 photocopies). Care should be taken that lettering and symbols are of a comparable size. The drawings should not be inserted in the text and should be marked on the back with figure numbers, title of paper, and name of author. All graphs and complex diagrams should be referred to as figures and should be numbered consecutively in the text in arabic numerals: simple diagrams can be typeset. Graph paper should be ruled in blue and any grid lines to be shown should be inked in black. Illustrations of insufficient quality which have to be redrawn by the publisher will be charged to the author.
(10) All unessential tables should be eliminated from the manuscript. Tables should be numbered consecutively in the text in arabic numerals and typed on separate sheets.
Any manuscript which does not conform to the above instructions may be returned for the necessary revision before publication.
There are no page charges and authors will receive 25 reprints free of charge. More reprints may be ordered at cost. Contributors are reminded that, once their contribution has been formally accepted by the Editor, all further correspondence should be sent directly to the Publisher (Elsevier Science B.V., Academic Publishing Division, P.O. Box 1991, 1000 BZ Amsterdam - refer to STAPRO on the envelope).
Upon acceptance of an article, author(s) will be asked to transfer copyright of the article to the publisher. This transfer will ensure the widest possible dissemination of information. Accepted manuscripts will be published within about three months of submission. NB: Papers submitted to Statistics & Probability Letters, may also be posted on The Mathematics Preprint Server (http://www.mathpreprints.com). Such posting on The Mathematics Preprint Server is in conformity with Elsevier Science copyright policy and in no way conflicts with submission to Statistics & Probability Letters.
