Journal Guide

The Proceedings of Rijeka Faculty of Economics – Journal of Economics and Business (Zbornik radova Ekonomskog fakulteta u Rijeci – Casopis za ekonomsku teoriju i praksu) has been a continuous scientific publication of the Faculty ever since 1971. However, in the period 1988–1993 it was issued annually, and it has been published twice a year ever since 1993 (spring and autumn/fall). The Concept of the Journal is focused on publishing articles dealing with economic theory as well as economic policies. It is primarily oriented to scientific papers, but it also publishes professional articles of exceptional quality that are estimated to contribute to economic theory and practice. The second part contains reviews of books and scientific works in the field of economics as well as those dealing with other related scientific fields. In addition, the Journal promotes international conferences, announces public tenders and provides useful information on other important events. The International Advisory Board sets mission and purpose, objectives and strategies of the Journal. Editorial Board sets the Journal policy, contents and layout, following the guidelines set by the International Advisory Board. The Journal has been abstracted and indexed in JEL (Journal of Economic Literature)/EconLit (American Economic Association’s Electronic Database), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA since 1993, as well as in the IBSS (International Bibliography of the Social Sciences), ProQuest, Cambridge, UK, and DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals), Lund University, Sweden, since 2007. Furthermore, since June 2008 the Journal has been abstracted and indexed in CAB Abstracts, UK, and since July 31, 2008 the Journal has been included in SSCI (Social Sciences Citation Index), Social Scisearch and JCR (Journal Citation Reports/Social Sciences Edition), Thomson Reuters, Philadelphia, USA, starting with No 1/2007, while Proquest – ABI/INFORM, Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA starting with No. 1/2006. In addition, SCOPUS, Elsevier, B.V., Amsterdam, The Netherlands have started coverage of all published material of the Journal since 2009, and EBSCO, Ipswich, MA, USA also covers the Journal in their databases EconLit with Full Text and SocINDEX in Abstracts&Indexing with references. The Journal is open for cooperation with scientists from Croatia and abroad all year round. Your contribution to economic theory and practice is welcomed. A special section in the Journal is reserved for Letters to the Editor. Readers and authors are invited to give their comments and suggestions. The most interesting letters, comments, and discussions will be published. .

Please note the following:
1) PNE seeks high quality research papers which are medium to long in length. Short research papers should be submitted to the journal Annals in Nuclear Energy.
2) PNE reserves the right to reject papers which are based solely on routine application of computer codes used to produce reactor designs or explain existing reactor phenomena. Such papers, although worthy, are best left as laboratory reports whereas Progress in Nuclear Energy seeks papers of originality, which are archival in nature, in the fields of mathematical and experimental nuclear technology, including fission, fusion (blanket physics, radiation damage), safety, materials aspects, economics, etc.
3) Review papers, which may occasionally be invited, are particularly sought by the journal in these fields.

The Union's free access, online journal, Public Health Action, was launched on 1 May 2011, and the first issue was published online on 21 September 2011. The journal aims to promote the vision of The Union, Health solutions for the poor, by disseminating new knowledge on health systems and health services for vulnerable groups, with a priority on tuberculosis, lung health, non-communicable diseases and related public health issues.

The editors will consider any manuscript reporting original research on health systems and services, with a focus on access, equity, quality and quality improvement, efficiency and cost-effectiveness and ethical issues related to health systems and services.

The Student Column publishes scientific manuscripts based on original research or practice-based work conducted by students, fellows, or recent graduates of ASPH member schools. The Student Column is peer reviewed. We strive to maintain a high level of quality for the manuscripts published. Accepted manuscripts may be published in each of the six issues of Public Health Reports printed annually.Submit Your Work: Potential submitters may be current students, at any level; current fellows; or working professionals up to two years post-graduation. All authors must have attended an ASPH member school of public health. Scientific manuscripts should have a strong public health component, add to the literature, sound methodology, actionable results, and clear and succinct writing. Other considerations are whether the submission discusses a topic of broad public health importance and interest, results that can be generalized, and a recent data set appropriate for the study.Become a Reviewer: Reviewers may be current students at an ASPH member school with at least one year experience in a master’s level program, current fellows, or working professionals up to two years post-graduation from an ASPH-member school.

Inappropriate experiments or lacking essential detailImmediate rejection criteria are: a) Wrong species or lacking details on the exact number of animals/subjects used b) No details of structure if a new drug is used for the first time5. Lack of novelty: The study must represent a novel approach to the field.Immediate rejection criteria are: a) Repetition of well known data b) No advance of knowledge in the fieldNote that only manuscripts written in good English will be considered by the Editors (British usage is preferred).

Previously published in two sections, Human Experimental Psychology (Section A) and Comparative and Physiological Psychology (B) the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology merged in 2006 to form a single journal.The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology is a leading international journal that publishes original articles on any topic within the field of experimental psychology. The journal publishes Rapid Communication articles (under 3,000 words) reporting novel techniques or ground breaking results, as well as substantial experimental reports. The journal offers an Open Access option, approved by the Wellcome Trust and other funders.The journal is keen to encourage submissions across a broad range of areas in experimental psychology, including those reporting work on human and animal subjects. Manuscripts including the use of functional brain imaging are also encouraged, as are papers reporting computational modelling of behavioural data.QJEP offers a competitive publication time-scale. Accepted Rapid Communications have priority in the publication, and usually appear in print within a few months. We aim to publish all accepted (but uncorrected) articles online within 7 days. Articles in their final form appear on-line, through the iFirst system, several months prior to paper publication.QJEP now offers an iOpenAccess option for authors.

The Quarterly Journal of Speech (QJS) publishes articles and book reviews of interest to those who take a rhetorical perspective on the texts, discourses, and cultural practices by which public beliefs and identities are constituted, empowered, and enacted. Rhetorical scholarship now cuts across many different intellectual, disciplinary, and political vectors, and QJS seeks to honor and address the interanimating effects of such differences. No single project, whether modern or postmodern in its orientation, or local, national, or global in its scope, can suffice as the sole locus of rhetorical practice, knowledge and understanding. Accordingly, QJS adopts an ecumenical attitude towards the full array of best scholarship being produced under rhetoric's broad purview, including work that advances and enriches long standing intellectual traditions, as well as theory and criticism that seeks to forge new intellectual frontiers.
