Submissions

Author Guidelines

JEMIE only considers manuscripts that have not been previously published, and which are not under consideration by another journal.

Authors are invited to submit their contributions via the Journal's online submission system in one of the following formats: Microsoft Word, OpenOffice, or RTF.

Anonymity. To maintain the integrity of the peer review process, authors must remove any personally identifiable information from the manuscript; this includes removing all personal information from the document's properties (metadata). The manuscript should only contain the title, abstract and keywords, and the text of the article, with no author information, institutional affiliation, acknowledgements, footnotes or any other information identifying the author(s).

A separate file with information about the author, including their full name, affiliation, email address, and ORCID (if available) should be submitted alongside the manuscript. Where the article is co-authored, information should be provided about all authors, and a corresponding author should be indicated.

Statement regarding the use of generative AI. Authors must state whether they have used generative AI tools in writing the manuscript. If generative AI was used, authors must list the name of the AI tool used, the scope, and the purpose of the use.

Style. All submissions to the journal must be prepared in accordance with our Style Guide.

Peer review process. JEMIE operates a two-step review process, consisting of an internal review by the editorial team, followed by an external double-blind peer review. The final decision on whether to publish is made by JEMIE's editorial team. Authors and Guest Editors receive regular updates regarding the progress of their article or Special Issue.

Publication. Manuscripts that have been accepted for publication are proofread by JEMIE's language editor, at no charge to the authors. Once the manuscript is proofread and ready for publication, the editors will provide authors with an estimated date of publication. The average time from submission to publication in JEMIE is 6 months.

Open access. All articles, commentaries, and book reviews published in JEMIE are immediately published as open access. JEMIE operates a no-fee open access policy, where authors do not pay any Article Processing Charges (APCs).
