Submission of Articles
 

 

  1. The Author submits the manuscript to the Journal Editor at editor@apjcap.com (Academic integrity is vital). The Author suggests two reviewers who are experts in their field.

  3. The Editors review the paper and may confer with the Editorial Committee. Poor quality or inappropriate papers may be rejected outright and returned to the author with an explanation.

  6. The Editor contacts the Author with the decision on the suitability of the paper for publication, for revision before publication, or if it should be rejected.

  7. The Editor and Editorial Committee reserve the right to make revisions to writing for greater clarity of style.
