IJHSR considers articles in any of the following categories for publication.

How to submit?

Only articles submitted using IJHSR Template will be placed into review process. Please read the guidelines below before submitting your work. Download and use the IJHSR Template to help structure your paper.

When ready, research articles, which are correctly placed in template and used the proper citation format, should be named as “LastName_FirstName” or “LastName_LastName_LastName” (if multiple authors) and submitted as a single pdf file. Any images (including formulas), used in the article, should be also submitted separately in high resolution and .png format in the same email with the article. For help typing formulas, we recommend using the free one-month trial of MathType.

For submission, send the paper and any images used in paper as a single email to [email protected]

1. When is the IJHSR submission deadline?
There is no deadline for submission for any issue. IJHSR accepts submissions all year long without a deadline. Quarterly issues will be published online as we complete the review and placement.

2. Should my research paper list my mentor/teacher as an author?
It is not required to list an adult supervisor, teacher, or mentor as an author on your paper. If you feel they played a vital role in the research, they should be listed, but must be identified as a supervisor, teacher, mentor, etc. Student names should be listed first and identified as a student. However, you should have a mentor, teacher, or professional who is guiding you with the publication process. In addition, they may also provide you feedback regarding the worthiness of the project for publication.

3. Who should be listed as author?
The authors of the article should be decided before submitting for publication. Any student or teacher who involved in research design/idea, research work, data analysis, manuscript preparation should be considered as authors. Others whose contribution is not as much impactful should be noted in the acknowledgment section. Authorship list and order cannot be changed once an article is accepted for publication. Corresponding author is responsible for all communications with editor and future requests from other readers once the article is published.

4. Are there any fees or page limits for submission?
There are no fees or page limits for submitting work to IJHSR.

5. How should I cite my work?
All citations should be done in ACS format. Papers cited in other formats will not be considered for publication. Each time you reference someone else’s work, it is required that you use a superscript number for in-text citation to reference the number that corresponds with the work cited in your “References” section. All students are responsible for properly citing their work. Please utilize the following resources to help correctly cite your work: libguides.williams.edu/citing/acs ACSQuickReferenceStyleGuide

6. Do you publish literature reviews?
We do no publish literature reviews.

7. Text Format/Style
Please use the journal template which is contains proper format and styles for the publication. All papers should be submitted in Arial font: Body/Paragraph Text: 10pt font Sub Headers: 12pt font, italicized, bold Section Headers: 14 pt font, bold Paper Title: 16pt font, bold Papers are to be single spaced. Do not indent paragraphs. Create a new paragraph by using the “Enter” key.

8. What is the process once I submit my paper?
The Editor-in-Chief will check the submitted article for the proper format, styling, and citations. If there are format issues, he/she may send it back to the author to correct the specific issues. The use of the template is very important for this step. Once the proper format is established, the Editor reviews the paper whether it is scientifically sound research and suitable for publication. If the editor agrees, he/she will forward the paper to two or more outside reviewers who have expertise in the field for their independent scientific opinion. Reviewers may ask for revisions before publication or deny it. Based on reviewers’ feedback, the editor may ask for corrective action on the paper before accepting it for publication. Once the revisions are submitted, it is accepted fully, and the paper is sent to copy editors for article placement in the Journal to be printed in the next available issue. The process may take 2-4 months depending how much revision is needed and how soon the authors may resubmit their revised paper.
