Manuscript Format

Manuscripts will be accepted for consideration as follows:

1. Types of articles published in RS&E:

Research Report: A full-length report of an original research that advances educational theory or demonstrates insights and/or relationships in educational practices in the imaging and radiologic sciences. A research report must contain a title page, an introduction, a review of the literature, hypothesis, methodology, findings, and a discussion.
Systematic Literature Reviews: A current complete systematic review and interpretation of all available literature on a well-defined topic that has significance to imaging and radiologic sciences education. Of particular importance are the reduction of large quantities of information into palatable pieces for greater understanding, integration of past findings, the identification of gaps in the literature, and insight into the application of findings to imaging and radiologic science education. A systematic review uses a clearly formulated question or problem statement and explicit methods to identify, select and critically appraise relevant research, and to collect and analyze data from the studies that are included in the review. Such a review includes a summary, assessments for the strengths and weaknesses in past research, critical critique of the current status of the topic, and areas needing further study. Literature reviews contain a statement of purpose, a brief outline of the methodology, content summary, conclusions, and recommendations. Systematic Literature Review manuscripts are evaluated based on their relevance, scope and design of the review process, accuracy and astuteness in recognizing trends, and presentation quality of the review. Manuscripts that do not critically analyze findings are not acceptable.
Case Report: A detailed description of the management of a unique education-related problem. Case reports must include the following four sections: Background, Case Description, Outcomes, and Discussion. The description of the case includes the relevant characteristics of the situation, examination/evaluation methods, a description of the interventions that were provided, and the outcomes.
Technical Note: A description of a new instrument, procedure, or technology relevant to the practice of imaging and radiologic science that is useful for educators in the field.
Letter to the Editor: A letter related to professional issues or articles published in the Journal. Letters will be reviewed and selected for publication by the Executive Editor based on the relevance, importance, appropriateness, and timeliness of the topic.
Invited Commentary: An expert's point of view concerning an article published in the Journal. Commentaries are invited by the Executive Editor and immediately follow the article discussed. Authors of the manuscript under commentary are given the opportunity to respond to the expert's point of view.

2. One electronic copy of the manuscript including all attachments, tables, illustration legends, and illustrations unless these are submitted as separate electronic files. Separate electronic files must be clearly labeled such as "Smith -- Figure 1"

The electronic copy must be in a common word processing application such as Microsoft Word or saved as Rich Text Format (.rtf) that can be read by any word processor. Word processing should use wrap-around lines (do not use returns at the ends of lines) and should use indents instead of tabs.
3. The electronic copy should be formatted in such a way that print copies are double-spaced, with one inch margins, lower right corner numbered pages, and abide by American Psychological Association (APA) style format in the following order: title page, abstract, text, acknowledgments, references, tables, illustration legends, and illustrations.
4. The title page must include the first and last names and credentials of all authors with department and institutional affiliations, complete mailing addresses, telephone, numbers, fax numbers, email addresses, and indication for the single author who should be contacted for correspondence and reprints.
5. The abstract should be limited to less than 100 words on a single page.
6. Acknowledgements should be brief and should include sources of grant or other financial support.
7. References must be according to APA style, double-spaced, hanging indented, and sorted by the last name of the first author. Abbreviations of journal names should be avoided. Example follows:

Clark, S., & Corcoran, M. (1986). Perspectives on the professional socialization of women faculty. Journal of Higher Education 57(1), 20-43.

Cullinan, A.M. (1992). Optimizing Radiographic Positioning. Philadelphia: J.B. Lippincott.

Dowd, S. B. (1994). Collaborative learning in radiography education. Radiologic Technology, 65 (5), 299-303.

Youngblood, N., & Beitz, J. M. (2001). Developing critical thinking with active learning strategies. Nurse Educator, 26 (1), 39-42.

Footnotes should not be used.
8. Tables should be self-explanatory and should supplement, not duplicate, the text. Each table must be cited in numerical order in the text and included as a supplementary page in the word processing electronic copy or as a clearly labeled separate electronic file.
9. Legends for illustration must be double-spaced, in numerical order (example: Fig.3).
10. Illustrations should clarify the text, must be referred to in the text, and numbered sequentially (example: Fig. 4). Original graphics should be submitted as individual electronic files in commonly used formats such as .tiff, .jpg, .psd, .eps, or .pdf. In all cases, files must include figure number and legend.

A manuscript should make a significant contribution to the preparation of imaging and radiologic science educators or improvement in imaging and radiologic science education. RS&E manuscripts should not only address what was done, but how that information might be applied to practice. Topics must be of interest and utility to our readership that consists mostly of imaging and radiologic science educators.
A manuscript should contain some element of novelty. RS&E will not publish information that basically consists of a re-presentation of commonly known or previously published information unless it provides a unique perspective on that information.
A manuscript generally should be readily comprehensible by imaging and radiologic science educators and professionals preparing to become imaging and radiologic educators.
A manuscript must not closely parallel an article that has recently appeared in RS&E or published previously in another publication. Occasionally, exceptions are made on a case-by-case basis as decided by the Executive Editor.
A manuscript should exhibit a professional writing style. The presentation of subject matter should be clear, accurate, concise, well organized, logically presented, and of suitable depth and/or breadth as suits the topic. It should be grammatically correct and free of typographical errors. The document should provide appropriate and up-to-date references.
