To assist authors in preparing their manuscripts for submission, Applied Linguistics Inquiry provides the following templates and forms. We strongly encourage all authors to download and use these resources to ensure their submission adheres to the journal's formatting and ethical requirements. Adherence to these guidelines is essential for a timely and efficient review process.
A cover letter is a professional courtesy that introduces your manuscript to the Editor-in-Chief. It should be concise and highlight the significance of your research, its relevance to the journal's scope, and confirm that the manuscript meets our ethical standards.
To facilitate our double-blind peer review process, all author-identifying information must be submitted on a separate title page. This document should not be included in the main manuscript file.
This form is a mandatory part of the submission process. It must be completed and signed by the corresponding author on behalf of all co-authors to certify the originality of the work and agreement with the journal's policies.
