Call for Manuscripts

Learning Disability Quarterly seeks high-quality manuscripts reporting original learning disability research. Consistent with our purpose, the following types of manuscripts are sought:


  • Reports of techniques in identification, assessment, remediation, and programming for children, youth, and adults with learning disabilities.
  • Literature reviews.
  • Papers advancing theory and the discussion of pertinent issues.
  • Policy and legal analyses examining state/federal laws, regulations, etc.
  • Papers advancing practices in personnel preparation.


Focus

The main emphasis of each paper should be on learning disabilities, rather than on topics or studies which incidentally use subjects with learning disabilities or only indirectly relate to the field of learning disabilities.

Format

Manuscripts should be prepared in accordance with The Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th ed., The American Psychological Association, 2001). Manuscripts should not exceed 25-35 pages (including references, tables, figures, and appendices).

Submission

Submit four copies of the manuscript along with a cover letter including the names, affiliations, addresses, and email addresses of each author. Mail your manuscript submission to:
