Manuscript Editing for Criminal Justice Policy Review Journal Articles
Criminal Justice Policy Review is a multidisciplinary peer-reviewed journal for the study of criminal justice policy through quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods. It links academics, policymakers, and practitioners with research on how policies, programs, and practices are carried out and how well they work. Sage publishes it with the Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, its editorial home, and the Northeastern Association of Criminal Justice Sciences.
The journal publishes articles, essays, research notes, interviews, and book reviews. Special features may include invited commentaries, transcripts of significant panels, position papers, and legislation. References follow the current Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association. Manuscripts that depart from the guidelines may be returned to authors. Book reviews are double-spaced, with a cover letter stating the review has not been submitted elsewhere. Optional open access is available through Sage Choice. Our editors apply APA style and check the manuscript against each guideline. Submissions go through SageTRACK.
