As an official journal of the Asia Pacific
Tourism Association ( founded in September 1995), the APJTR seeks
to publish both empirically and theoretically based articles which
advance and foster tourism education, research, and professionalism in
the Asia Pacific region. The Journal welcomes submissions of full
length articles, research notes, critical reviews on major issues, and
reviews of books and conferences with relevance to the Asia Pacific region.
-
Submission of a manuscript to this Journal
represents a certification on the part of the author(s) that it is an original
work, and that neither this manuscript nor a version of it has been published
elsewhere nor is being considered for publication elsewhere.
-
The Journal publishes two main classes of
articles: full-length articles or approximately 5,000 words (15-25 pages,
double-spaced), and short research notes/reports/reviews of about 1,500
words (5-10 pages, double-spaced). References, citations, and general style
of manuscripts for this Journal should follow the APA style (as outlined
in the latest edition of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological
Association). References should be placed in alphabetical order.
-
If the manuscript is successfully reviewed
and accepted for publication, the authors must certify that they are members
of the APTA or join the membership (annual membership dues US$50 including
journal subscription fee.)
-
Submit three copies of the manuscript with
a signed cover letter stating the following:
"I/We certify that this is an original
work, and that neither this manuscript nor a version of it has been published
elsewhere nor is being considered for publication elsewhere."
-
To facilitate the double blind review process,
authors are instructed to include their names, academic titles and degrees,
current affiliations, mailing addresses, and contact information (telephone
and fax numbers with the country and city code, and e-mail when available)
only on the cover page. Any information which identifies the author(s)
should not appear elsewhere in the manuscript.
-
Once the manuscript is accepted for publication,
the author(s) will be required to submit final copies of the manuscript
both in hard copies and diskette copies (on Word Perfect 5.1 or Microsoft
Word 6.0).
