In this episode of Publishing Addiction Science, Dr Casy Calver talks to Professor Paul Dietze about common submission errors. They talk about how to avoid desk-rejection, the importance of understanding the scope of the journal to which you submit, the importance of following instructions to authors. Many journals have differing requirements and this can change between internationally focused journals or those with a more regional remit. They also talk about the importance of using person-first and non-stigmatising language.Paul Dietze is Executive Editor of the Drug and Alcohol Review journal and an ISAJE board member.Whatever you do don't annoy the editor.
