On Manuscript Central's login page, the link entitled "User Tutorials" will provide authors with detailed descriptions of every feature and function of Manuscript Central and guide them through the submission process. For further assistance, click on the link entitled "Get Help Now." This will bring up contact information for e-mail and telephone customer support from ScholarOne, the designers of Manuscript Central. Authors can also contact the journal's editorial office. Provisions will be made to receive submissions from authors who cannot access the online system. Contact the editorial office (sored@wfu.edu) for instructions.

Non-members may join the Association at the time of submission and have this fee waived. Annual dues are $35 for constituent members and $15 for full-time students and low income (under $10,000) members, and include a subscription to Sociology of Religion.

Manuscript preparation.Manuscripts (text, references, tables, figures, etc.) should be prepared in detailed accord with the current edition of The American Sociological Association Style Guide and The Chicago Manual of Style. Detailed “Instructions for Authors” are available here or in the third issue of each volume of the journal.
Copyright.Upon acceptance of an article by the journal, the author(s) will be asked to grant publication license. This license will insure the widest dissemination of information possible under the U.S. copyright law.
Multiple submission policy: The Association for the Sociology of Religion supports the Code of Ethics of the American Sociological Association (ASA) and other professional associations in the social sciences with respect to multiple submissions of manuscripts to academic journals. Further, it is assumed by Sociology of Religion that work submitted for review has not been previously published. If other published or submitted articles exist that are based on essentially the same or closely related data sets, such articles should be noted and referenced in a letter to the editor and their relation to the submitted paper briefly explained. In cases where a manuscript has been determined to have been submitted to Sociology of Religion when it is also under consideration by another journal or vice-versa, that manuscript will be rejected from further consideration by this journal. Persons unfamiliar with the ASA’s Code of Ethics may obtain a copy on the ASA web site (www.asanet.org) or by writing the ASA at 1307 New York Avenue, NW, Suite 700, Washington, DC 20005-4701.
NOTE: The editor reserves the right to reject manuscripts that do not follow these guidelines for manuscript preparation and submission.
