Manuscript Editing for Canadian Journal of Behavioural Science Articles
The Canadian Journal of Behavioural Science publishes original empirical research in social psychology, lifespan development, and school and educational psychology. Its fields also include industrial and organizational, clinical and abnormal, and environmental psychology, along with diversity, equity, and inclusion. It considers cross-cutting work, brief reports, and reviews and meta-analyses that follow best-practice methods. The American Psychological Association publishes it quarterly for the Canadian Psychological Association, and its editor is at the Université de Moncton.
Regular submissions run no more than 35 pages, and brief reports, including psychometric papers, no more than 16. Page limits assume double spacing in 12-point type and include tables, figures, and references. Systematic and scoping reviews and meta-analyses follow PRISMA or PRISMA-ScR. The Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, 7th edition, applies throughout. The abstract page holds an abstract of up to 250 words, up to five keywords, and a public significance statement of two or three sentences. The author note carries a prior dissemination statement, and generative AI use is disclosed and cited in the method section. Manuscripts may be in English or French, and review is masked. Off the Grid Editing applies APA 7 and drafts the public significance statement in plain language. Submissions go through Editorial Manager.
Our Promise
We will ensure that the final draft you receive is completely ready to submit to Canadian Journal of Behavioural Science. We work with you until it is ready or refund your payment in full. That commitment has held since 2002.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for the Canadian Journal of Behavioural Science
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Canadian Journal of Behavioural Science.
The APA's submission guidelines cover length, the abstract page, and masked review. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.

If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. We also prepare articles for the Psi Chi Journal of Psychological Research and the Canadian Journal of School Psychology.
