Students wishing to have their manuscript considered for the Emerging Scholars section will first engage in one-on-one developmental review and revisions with an editor or editorial board member prior to peer review, and manuscripts will then undergo the traditional full peer review process. JHHSA periodically publishes original research by doctoral or early career students. Research notes should use the same APA Style guidelines as research articles, and should be between 4,000 and 5,000 words in length. Given the shorter length, clarity of writing and attention to language is especially important. These types of articles are shorter and, though they do not need to follow the same format as standard research articles, should proceed in a similar manner with regard to theoretical support, understanding of methods and results (if relevant), and discussion of contributions to knowledge. Research notes are shorter articles that examine a new conceptual or theoretical application, present interesting or novel research findings, or make some other type of contribution to our knowledge of how health and human services organizations function. Research articles should be between 7,000 and 10,000 words in length, and should follow APA style guidelines. Empirical articles should follow standard conventions for structure (e.g., introduction, literature review, methods, findings, conclusion), while theory-focused articles may have a more flexible structure as appropriate to the topic. Research articles should concretely improve our understanding of theory, practice, or both, and authors are encouraged to build upon past work in a manner that acknowledges the complex, interdisciplinary nature of health and human services functions. JHHSA publishes both theoretical and empirical research, and embraces methodological diversity including quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods. Please see JHHSA’s ethics guidelines for more information prior to submitting a manuscript.
