Language Acquisition journal invites dissertation notices

[Diane Lillo-Martin]

Announcement:  Dissertation Notices
 
    €    We invite authors of recent dissertations on language acquisition
to submit a synopsis for publication in Language Acquisition. Research on
L1, L2, and/or special populations is appropriate, provided that the
research makes a clear contribution to linguistic theory.
    €    The synopsis should indicate the breadth of the entire
dissertation, but may focus on the most important findings.
    €    The dissertation should have been completed within three years
prior to submission of the synopsis.
    €    The maximum length is 1000 words, including references.
    €    The synopsis should not include footnotes, tables, or figures.
    €    When contributing the synopsis, the author must certify that it has
not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere in its submitted
form.
    €    The synopsis will be reviewed for appropriateness of form and
content by the journal's editorial staff, although it will not be sent out
for anonymous peer review.
    €    Synopses should be formatted according to the guidelines for
submission of articles, except that MS Word format is preferred. Include the
author¹s name, institution and year of Ph.D., and major advisor¹s name,
following the title.
    €    Synopses should be submitted as email attachments to the following
address: Editors at LanguageAcquisition.org.
