Manuscript Editing for American Journal of Occupational Therapy Articles

Order Manuscript Editing The American Journal of Occupational Therapy is AOTA's research journal. It publishes occupational therapy research, from studies of the reliability and validity of OT instruments to work on how occupation shapes health and participation. Since July 2026 the journal has been hosted on the Sage Journals platform, with AOTA keeping editorial control.

Off the Grid Editing prepares AJOT manuscripts in APA reference style. Research articles carry a structured abstract, follow the EQUATOR guideline for their design, and come with AJOT's presubmission checklist. We edit so the methods answer that checklist line by line.
