Author Checklist | Engaged Management ReView

Initial Submission

  • Read detailed submission guidelines on EMR website.
  • Select type of article: research — dissertation digest, research — empirical paper, topic paper, or essay paper.
  • State in the cover letter if the manuscript has been presented at a conference or published in conference proceedings or as a working paper. Verify that your manuscript has not been published by nor is under review at another journal or as a book or book chapter.
  • Prepare electronic version of manuscript in Word for PC. Use the Times Roman font for the body of the paper; use Times Roman in figures and tables. Note: If paper is accepted, graphics (usually figures) must be GIF format, using the Times Roman font.
  • Double space the body of your manuscript.
  • Ensure that references are complete, match text, and follow EMR format.
  • Check all electronic documents for viruses.
  • For manuscript, follow initial submission guidelines for research — dissertation digests, research — empirical, topic, and essay papers.
  • For citation and reference style, use the Academy of Management Journal style, which can be found here.

Accepted Papers

  • After your paper has been accepted, you will be asked to prepare author biographies in Word, and a photograph of authors. At your option, you may provide email addresses of the authors.
  • After your paper has been accepted, you will be asked to verify how the author names are to be displayed on the paper and what affiliation they desire to be displayed. You will also be asked to verify if the Abstract has changed from the original submission, and if so, to provide an updated Abstract.
  • If you have acknowledgements, provide them after your paper has been accepted. Acknowledgements will be placed on the first page of the published article.
  • Obtain permission in writing to reprint any copyrighted material from another source. Obtaining permission, including any fees, is the sole responsibility of the author(s). A copy of the reprint permission must be provided to the EMR office. Frequently material that authors identify as being an adaptation really needs reprint permission. If you have any questions, contact EMR at engaged-management-review@case.edu. You may be asked to provide a copy of the original material.
