Manuscripts Manuscripts should reflect research of empirically supported experience in one or more of the areas of acquisition discussed above. Defense ARJ is a scholarly research journal and as such does not publish position papers, essays, or other writings not supported by research firmly based in empirical data. Authors should clearly state in their submission whether they are submitting a research article or a case history. The requirements for each are outlined below. Manuscripts that are 5,000 words or fewer (excluding abstracts, references, and endnotes) will be considered for print as well as online publication. Manuscripts between 5,000 and 10,000 words will be considered for online-only publication, with a two-sentence summary included in the print version of Defense ARJ . In no case should article submissions exceed 10,000 words. Research Articles Research involves the creation of new knowledge. This generally requires either original analysis of material from primary sources, including program documents, policy papers, memoranda, surveys, interviews, and so on; or analysis of new data collected by the researcher. Articles are characterized by a systematic inquiry into a subject to establish facts or test theories that have implications for the development of acquisition policy and/or process.
