            Authors may submit full-length papers, research-in-progress, or 
            abstracts. All submissions will be double blind reviewed. All papers 
            must describe original and unpublished research. Publication in the 
            proceedings does not preclude subsequent publication in other 
            journals when proper acknowledgments are made.

            All submissions must have a title page with the title of the paper, 
            general subject area of the paper, the name(s) of the author(s), 
            their affiliation(s), and complete address of all authors including 
            phone, fax, and email addresses. The second page should include the 
            title of the paper at the top, followed by an abstract not exceeding 
            300 words. The main body of the paper should follow the abstract. 
            Full-length papers should not exceed 20 double-spaced pages. All 
            tables, figures, graphs, drawings and pictures should be inserted as 
            objects (i.e., authors must create the figures in separate files and 
            insert them into their final document as objects, thereby allowing 
            the editors to format documents without changing the format of the 
            figures). All submissions must follow the APA style and the exact 
            guideline for submission available at the conference website (www.amhighed.com). 
            Submissions that do not follow the guidelines will be returned to 
            the authors for corrections.

            be awarded at the reception on Thursday 
            March 18, 2010. All full-length papers will be 
            automatically considered for this award. Papers that win the best 
            paper awards will be published in the related journals after 
            satisfying the reviewers’ suggestions.

            Authors who would like their manuscripts to be considered for 
            possible publication in the American Journal of Business Research (AJBR) must 
            resubmit 
            their manuscript to the  editor (Dr. Alireza Lari at 
            alari@uncfsu.edu) 
            for further blind reviews. Authors must follow the guidelines 
            provided at the website for journals. The journal editor strives to 
            respond to all authors within approximately four months of the date 
            from which the manuscript was received. This journal is listed in Cabell’s Directory.
