prior publication. We encourage you to consult the journal’s editor before posting online a paper intended for submission to one of our journals. In some cases, such posting may constitute prior publication—for example, posting a working paper to a venue with a formal review and accreditation process. In addition, posting a paper intended for submission may compromise the confidentiality of the refereeing process if the journal uses an anonymous (blind) peer review system and delay or prevent a decision based on the paper’s merits. You should disclose to the journal editor any prior publication or posting of your manuscript. Author's Submitted Manuscript (ASM): The version of the manuscript that is submitted to a journal for consideration for publication, prior to editorial (peer) review. The ASM is a preacceptance version. Concurrent submission: Submitting the same paper to more than one journal concurrently is a violation of the Press’s ethical standards. Any such manuscript will be rejected. See the Press’s Statement of Publication Ethics for more information (xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx/publication-ethics-statement). Author's Accepted Manuscript (AAM): The version of the manuscript that is accepted for publication in the journal, after editorial (peer) review and prior to copyediting. All authors must sign a publication agreement or license when the manuscript is accepted, indicating acceptance of the terms in the publication agreement or license and these Guidelines. The AAM is a postacceptance version. Proofs: Some journals may provide you with typeset proofs of your article before it is published. Because proofs are under embargo and easily confused with the version of record (VoR—see below), proofs may not be posted, shared, or otherwise used except as directed by the editorial office or the Press.
