Ensuring anonymous Peer Review

To ensure the integrity of the anonymous peer-review for submission to this journal, every effort should be made to prevent the identities of the authors and reviewers from being known to each other. This involves the authors, editors, and reviewers (who upload documents as part of their review) checking to see if the following steps have been taken with regard to the text and the file properties:

  1. The authors of the document have deleted their names from the text, with "Author" and year used in the references and footnotes, instead of the authors' name, article title, etc.
  2. With Microsoft Office documents, author identification should also be removed from the properties for the file.

    For Microsoft 2003 and previous versions, and Macintosh versions of Word:

    • Under the File menu select: Save As > Tools (or Options with a Mac) > Security > Remove personal information from file properties on save > Save.

    For MacIntosh Word 2008 (and future versions)

    1. Under the File menu select "Properties."
    2. Under the Summary tab remove all of the identifying information from all of the fields.
    3. Save the File.

    For Microsoft 2007 (Windows):

    1. Click on the office button in the upper-left hand corner of the office application
    2. Select "Prepare" from the menu options.
    3. Select "Properties" for the "Prepare" menu options.
    4. Delete all of the information in the document property fields that appear under the main menu options.
    5. Save the document and close the document property field section.

    For Microsoft 2010 (Windows):

    1. Under the File menu select "Prepare for sharing."
    2. Click on the "Check for issues" icon.
    3. click on "inspect document" icon.
    4. Uncheck all of the checkboxes except "Document Properties and Personal information".
    5. Run the document inspector, which will then do a search of the document properties and indicated if any document property fields contain any information.
    6. If the document inspector finds that some of the document properties contain information it will notify you and give you the option to "Remove all," which you will click to remove the document properties and personal information from the document.

General Style Guidelines

Articles must be written in clear, grammatical English. Aesthetic Investigations cannot provide any assistance with translating or language editing. Submissions in poor English will be rejected.
The text employs italics, rather than underlining (do not hyperlink URL addresses).
A space should be left between paragraphs, which should not be indented.
Book and journal titles should be italicized while article titles should be in quotation marks.
Quotation marks should be single quotes, except for quotes within quotes (which should be double).
Quotations longer than thirty words should be separated from the main text, indented, single-spaced and should have no quotation marks.
Foreign-language quotations in both text and notes should be translated into English, unless the significance of the quotation will be lost. The original text may be included in a note if it is unpublished, difficult to access, or of special relevance to the article. Brackets in quoted material indicate author's interpolation.
Brackets within brackets should be square (Painting as an Art [1988]).
Diacritics (accents) should be added to all names or words where appropriate.

 

Notes

Notes should be used for material or comments that are either not absolutely necessary to the flow of the argument or which give information that a general, academic reader may not reasonably be supposed to have. Notes are also used for referencing sources.

Notes should be placed between straight brackets in the main text, and without numbers. Please do not use the functionality for footnotes or endnotes of your wordpocessor.[This is a note]

 

Bibliography

Articles should have a separate bibliography. The bibliography should be uploaded as a separate file in the bibtex format according to the following examples:
