About the journal
Aims & Scope
Mathematical Population Studies has been selected for the Social Sciences Citation Index, Science Citation Index Expanded, CC/Social & Behavioral Sciences, and the CompuMath Citation Index.
Mathematical Population Studies publishes carefully selected research papers in the mathematical and statistical study of human populations. In addition, papers that deal with mathematical approaches to population science in broader contexts are welcome if they are, or should be, of interest to demographers. The journal is thus strongly interdisciplinary and invites contributions by mathematicians, demographers, (bio)statisticians, sociologists, economists, biologists, epidemiologists, actuaries, geographers, and others who are interested in the mathematical formulation of population-related questions.
The scope covers both theoretical and empirical work. The journal serves as a forum for the exchange of views between researchers in academia, international organizations, research institutes, and statistical offices throughout the world. Short notes, letters, and reviews of computer software are welcome. Manuscripts should be sent in triplicate to any one of the editors (or to the Coordinating Editor), who after an initial screening, will have them reviewed. The editors have final say on the suitability for publication.
Peer Review Policy:
All review papers in this journal have undergone editorial screening and peer reivew.
Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

Aims and Scope
Mathematical Population Studies publishes carefully selected research papers in the mathematical and statistical study of human populations, biological populations, and population genetics. The journal is strongly interdisciplinary and invites contributions by mathematicians, demographers, (bio) statisticians, population geneticists, sociologists, economists, epidemiologists, geographers, and actuaries. The scope covers theoretical and empirical work. The journal serves as a forum for the exchange of views between researchers in academia, international organizations, research institutes, and statistical offices throughout the world. Short notes, letters, and reviews of software are welcome.
Submission of Manuscripts
Manuscripts should be submitted electronically to the Editor-in-Chief or Associate Editors, who, after an initial screening will have them reviewed. The Editors have final say on the suitability for publication. All parts of the manuscript should be typewritten, double-spaced, with margins of at least one inch on all sides. Number manuscript pages consecutively throughout the paper. Each manuscript must be accompanied by a statement that it has not been published elsewhere and that it has not been submitted simultaneously for publication elsewhere. Authors are responsible for obtaining permission to reproduce copyrighted material from other sources and are required to sign an agreement for the transfer of copyright to the publisher. All accepted manuscripts, artwork, and photographs become the property of the publisher.
For anonymity in the review process, names, affiliations, and mailing addresses should appear on a separate title page. Please indicate which author is the corresponding author. Authors should also supply a shortened version of the title suitable for the running head, not exceeding 35 character spaces. Each article should be summarized in an abstract of no more that 150 words. Include a list of six key words to be used for database word searches.
Illustrations
Illustrations submitted (line drawings, halftones, photos, photomicrographs, etc.) should be clean originals or digital files. Digital files are recommended for highest quality reproduction and should follow these guidelines: 300 dpi or higher; sized to fit on journal page; EPS, TIFF, or PSD format only; and submitted as separate files, not embedded in text files.
Color illustrations will be considered for publication; however, the author will be required to bear the full cost involved in their printing and publication. The charge for the first page with color is $900.00. The next three pages with color are $450.00 each. A custom quote will be provided for color art totaling more than 4 journal pages. Good-quality color prints or files should be provided in their final size. The publisher has the right to refuse publication of color prints deemed unacceptable.
Tables and Figures
Tables and figures should not be embedded in the text, but should be included as separate sheets or files. A short descriptive title should appear above each table with a clear legend and any footnotes suitably identified below. All units must be included. Figures should be completely labeled, taking into account necessary size reduction. Captions should be typed, double-spaced, on a separate sheet. All original figures should be clearly marked in pencil on the reverse side with the number, author's name, and top edge indicated.
Mathematical Expressions
Mathematical expressions should be typewritten, with any unusual or ambiguous symbols identified in the margins where they first occur. To simplify typesetting, please use the "emp" form of complex exponential functions and use fractional exponents instead of root signs. Equations must be displayed exactly as they should appear in print and numbered in parentheses placed at the right margin.
References
References within the text. Cite references in the text by the "author-date" method of citation, i.e., the last name and the year of publication. Examples: In his article, Smith (1980) discusses. . . It has been shown (Smith and Jones, 1981) that. . . Reference lists. Examples: Manton, K. G., Stallard, E., and Vaupel, J. (1981).

New York: John Wiley.
Proofs
The corresponding author will receive proofs, which should be proofread and returned within 48 hours of receipt. Corrections are limited to printer's errors. No substantial author's changes will be made.
Reprints
Each corresponding author will receive one copy of the issue in which the article appears. Reprints of individual articles are available for order at the time authors review page proofs. A discount on reprints is available to authors who order before print publication.
