How to Publish Your Journal Manuscript


Those of you just getting started in journal publishing are likely to have a few questions: How do I pick a journal? What do I do if my paper is rejected? (And most are rejected the first time.) What if I disagree with key points in the review?

We have information you can use--answers to these questions and lots more. At the APA Annual Convention and at several regional psychological association meetings each year, APA's Publications and Communications Board sponsors the session, 'How to Publish Your Manuscript.' A published author, a journal editor, and a staff member from the APA journals department will talk about the ups and downs of submitting manuscripts for publication and how to pull it off successfully.

Anyone interested--whether you have published a little, a lot, or not at all--is welcome to come. So you know where we will be, here's the schedule for 1997:

Southeastern Psychological Association
Atlanta, April 3-6
1997 Eastern Psychological Association
Washington, DC, April 10-13, 1997
Southwestern Psychological Association
Forth Worth, TX, April 17-19, 1997

Your copy of the American Psychologist includes details on who to contact for each of these meetings.
