72 Evaluation Journal of Australasia, Vol. 8, No. 2, 2008
All AES members and other people
involved in the practice, study or
teaching of evaluation are invited to
submit articles, reports, reviews or
news items for publication. Before
submitting articles, contributors are
advised to consult the full guidelines
set out on the AES website
(www.aes.asn.au).
Decisions on publication are made
on the basis of assessments by the
editors, taking account of advice
from authorities in relevant fields.
Where requested by the author,
articles will be submitted for formal
peer review, and such refereed
articles will be identified accordingly
in the journal. However, the editors
reserve the right to publish a paper
as non-refereed or refereed as
appropriate, in consultation with the
relevant referees.
There is no predetermined ‘house
style’ for EJA. Authors are encouraged
to give expression to their own
individual voice, provided it meets
generally accepted standards of
clear, accurate and literate English
usage. The principles set out in the
Style Manual for Authors, Editors
and Printers (sixth edition) should be
used as a general guide to usage.
Citations should follow the Harvard
(i.e. author–date) style.
Authors are asked to write their
articles in a way that foregrounds
the most significant and interesting
features of their content, avoiding
unfamiliar technical language,
extensive data tables and
mathematical notation, except to
the extent that these are necessary
to convey the argument. Articles
should be arranged in a way that
facilitates comprehension by non-
specialists, e.g. by using text boxes
for background information and
aspects of detail that are not central
to the exposition. References should
be kept to the minimum required for
understanding the text or following
up sources specifically quoted or
discussed in the article.
The editors reserve the right to correct
obvious errors in spelling, vocabulary
and grammar without reference to the
author. Any more extensive corrections
or modifications which the editors and/
or peer reviewers consider desirable
will be discussed and explicitly
cleared with the author before being
incorporated in the published text.
Individual contributions should not
normally exceed a published length
of 10 pages, including all tables,
graphics, notes and references. The
editors reserve the right to edit longer
articles down to this length if space
considerations require. Articles shorter
than 3000 words will not generally be
regarded as suitable for peer review.
Copyright in articles submitted for
publication in EJA resides with the
authors, unless otherwise specified.
Copyright in the form of the articles as
presented in EJA resides with the AES.
Articles should be submitted as
attachments to an email, preferably in
Word (with the extension .doc) or as
rich text format (RTF) to:
