Manuscript Review Nurse Educator is a refereed (peer reviewed) journal. Published manuscripts have been reviewed, selected, and developed with the guidance of our editorial advisors. Manuscript content is assessed for relevance, accuracy, and usefulness to the daily practice of faculty and administrators.
Manuscripts are reviewed with the understanding that neither the manuscript nor its essential content has been published or is under consideration by others. The review process starts on the first day of every month. For example, February 1 is the start of the review process for all manuscripts received during January. Publication decisions and author notification occur within 8 weeks from the beginning of the review process. With rare exception, manuscripts are published within one year of initial receipt.
Authorship Responsibility All persons designated as authors should qualify for authorship. Each author should have contributed significantly to the conception and design of the work and writing the manuscript to take public responsibility for it. The editor may request justification of assignment of authorship. Names of those who contributed general support or technical help may be listed in an acknowledgment, placed after narrative, before references.
Query Letters Although not necessary, query letters allow the editor to indicate interest in, and give developmental advice on, manuscript topics. They may be e-mailed to the editor at NEEditor@aol.com.
