EXTENDED DEADLINE: 2006 April 5.
We have received many requests for an extended deadline. We are
beginning the review process now with papers that are already here.
We will review each paper as it arrives to ensure a prompt reply for
those who need it. We will continue to accept papers until April 5.
Digital submission: Authors must submit papers in digital form.
Submission address: Please submit papers to the Content Management Coordinator
"Martim Lapa" [log in to unmask]
When sending your paper to Mr. Lapa, please send a copy [Cc:] to the
Content Management Secretary
"Elisabete Perfeito" [log in to unmask]
Language: Papers must be written in English.
References, format, and style: Use author-year style for referencing.
Please visit the conference web site for full details.
Length: Submissions should normally be within the range up to 6000
words for full papers plus illustrations and up to 2000 words for
working papers plus illustrations.
Refereeing: A large, international scientific committee ensures
expert review for all fields. No referee will review more than three
papers. Authors will receive careful and reflective comments.
The Wonderground review process will "help authors in" rather than
"keep authors out."
Short note: A good paper or a good extended abstract should: 1) State
the theme of the paper. 2) Promise a contribution. 3) Provide
evidence for the argument that the author will present to reach the
conclusion. 4) State the structure of the argument and show how she
or he will develop it. 5) Show how the evidence and the argument will
lead to a contribution. Evidence may include summaries of the
author's empirical work as well as discussion from the literature. 6)
Provide a selected reference list that supports the abstract in the
same way that the full reference list will support the paper.
