Notes for Authors
1. The cover
page of the manuscript should have the title of the paper, the names(s) of the
author(s), and a footnote giving the current affiliation of the author(s) and
any acknowledgments. The cover page should be submitted separately from the main
text file.
2. The main text file should be submitted as a blinded manuscript. It should not
contain any information that can be used to identify the author(s).
3. The manuscript should include an abstract (maximum 300 words). The abstract
should be followed by Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) classifications and
keywords (four to six). Please note that JEL classifications are also available
for marketing and management related topics. For more on JEL classifications
please consult

4. The main text of the article should be in single-column format, double line
spaced with font style of Times New Roman. All main headings should be bold with
size 16, while subheadings should be bold with font size 14. The main text
should be justified with size 12.

It is advised to limit the level of headings within the main text file.
6. Distinguish between figures (diagrams) and tables (statistical material) and
number them in separate sequences. Each table/figure should have a brief but
descriptive title. All table/figures should be self-explanatory, incorporating
any necessary descriptive material in a note at the base of the table.
7. Each mathematical formula, figure, and table should be submitted as editable
text, not as pasted images.

year of publication in parentheses, and all references should conform to the APA

alphabetical order of the authors’ surnames and follow the APA style. For more
details about referencing, please refer to the APA style manual.

purpose of replication. The data should be clearly and precisely documented and
be made available to the journal reviewer (if requested).
