  1. Publishing Your Work in the CAC Supplement in AJSLP Authors of manuscripts stemming from either platform and poster presentations are invited to submit an article for publication in the CAC Supplement that will appear in the May 2012 issue of the American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology: A Journal of Clinical Practice

  2. Manuscript Submission • Authors should notify Swathi Kiran kirans@bu.edu by June 30th of their intention to submit • Manuscripts will need to be submitted by August 15 to be considered • To submit, go to mc.manuscriptcentral.com/asha • Complete instructions are available at http://ajslp.asha.org/misc/ifora.dtl • It is important to indicate in your cover letter that your manuscript is intended for the CAC Supplement

  3. Page Limits Up to 30 pages (including title page, abstract, references, tables, and figures). See manuscript types for details. Longer manuscripts, particularly for critical reviews and extended data-based reports, will not be excluded from review, but the author(s) should be prepared to justify the length of the manuscript if requested

  4. Manuscript Types Research Article: Full-length articles presenting important new research results Research Note: Brief manuscripts presenting pilot, preliminary, and/or exploratory findings. Review: A comprehensive overview (i.e., systematic review or meta-analysis). Tutorial: Educational expositions covering recent literature on topics of interest to clinicians and other scholars. Clinical Focus: Articles of primarily clinical interest but may not have a traditional research format. Case studies, descriptions of clinical programs, and services. Viewpoint: Scholarly based opinion(s) on an issue of clinical relevance. World View: Authors write about the profession of speech-language pathology internationally. This format can include writings on issues of clinical interaction in the field by authors from related disciplines.

  5. Reporting Standards for Clinical Studies Articles reporting: Randomized clinical trials should follow the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) Nonrandomized clinical evaluations should follow the Transparency of Reporting Evaluations of Nonrandomized Designs (TREND) Studies of diagnostic accuracy should meet the Standards for Reporting of Diagnostic Accuracy (STARD) Authors should find these standards useful as guides in designing and implementing their studies; however, it is recognized that the standards apply directly to the reporting of studies rather than to their implementation.

  6. Supplemental Materials • Authors may submit files as electronic supplemental material at the time of submission. All supplemental materials have to be submitted at the same time as the manuscript and will be subject to the normal peer review process. • Supplemental material can consist of: • text (tables; treatment protocols; narratives) • images (visual stimuli used in exp; alternative figures) • video (demonstrations of clinical or research protocols) • sound clips (auditory stimuli; speech samples) • data (raw data; data from individual participants; normative data) • The material must be original content that has not been previously published. Recordings or images that involve identifiable participants require permission from those individuals. Please secure and provide that signed consent.

  7. Criteria for Acceptance The principal criteria for acceptance are: • Significance of the topic or experimental question • Conformity to rigorous standards of scholarship • Clarityof writing • Additionally • ASHA membership is not a factor in selection • No manuscript that has been published (including in an electronic form) or is under consideration elsewhere may be submitted
