Manuscript Editing for Criminal Justice Review Journal Articles
Criminal Justice Review presents a broad perspective on criminal justice issues within the United States. It gives social scientists a forum for research findings that inform policy on crime and justice, using innovative and advanced methods. Sage publishes it.
The journal takes articles, research notes, and commentaries, each with a cover letter, and book reviews go to the Book Review Editor. The abstract runs 200 words at most, with up to five keywords and an author sketch of up to 150 words. References follow the APA Publication Manual, 7th edition, with house rules such as et al. for three to five authors after first mention. Endnotes carry substantive comments only, under a Notes heading. The main document omits author names for blind review, and tables and figures sit at the back with placement markers. Studies with human subjects state ethics approval and the form of consent. Submissions go through SageTRACK.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for Criminal Justice Review
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 Criminal Justice Review.
Sage's manuscript submission guidelines cover the cover letter, headings, and references. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one.
