Author Guidelines

All papers should be submitted via the online system. AJBM considers all manuscripts on the strict condition that they have been submitted only to AJBM, that they have not been published already (except in the form of an abstract or as part of a published lecture or academic thesis), nor are they under consideration for publication or in press elsewhere. To expedite the review process, all manuscripts submitted to AJBM should be prepared according to the following format.

Word length: Articles should not exceed 10,000 words (excluding references).

Cover Page: This contains the title of the manuscript, all author names and their corresponding affiliations as well as complete mailing address, and E-mail.

Title Page: The second page consists of the manuscript title, abstract (maximum of 250 words) that reflects an abbreviated representation of the content of the manuscript including purpose, method, main results, conclusions, and/or recommendations), and up to seven keywords for indexing purposes. To facilitate the double-blind review process no material that identifies the author(s) should be placed on this page.

Text: The text should consist of an introduction, main body (including literature review, method, results, analysis, and discussion, as appropriate) and Conclusions. Text citations should adhere to the following examples: (Bram, 1994) or(Aronsson, 2001, 2002; Labonte & Laverack, 2005; Kwan, et al., 2003) or(Limbert, 2004, p.7) (for quoted material). Abbreviations should be fully spelled out in parentheses the first time that they are used in the text.
