If I have a publishing under review, should/can I put it on my CV..... if so, how would you put it in the CV? Thanks all!!
Hi - I don't know if there's a formal answer to your question. I've looked at a bunch of CVs that are listed on university websites. In the publications sections I've seen articles listed as "pending publication" or "accepted for publication" and the clear message is that the articles have been submitted, reviewed, accepted and are simply waiting to be slipped into a specific issue of a journal. This wait can sometimes be measured in years. If your article has not yet been accepted then you might be able to list it as "in submission" or something like that. There ma be some formal etiquette involved but I'd be willing to bet that it's handled variously by different people. Jack
Han - IIRC it might acceptable if you clearly identify it as an article that has been submitted and not yet accepted for publication. To be certain consult a reference like the American Psychological Association Publication Manual. This will have the added benefit of providing a format.
You can say "submitted for publication" but it's generally considered bad form to name the journal. Once it's accepted in final form, you can say "in press" and include the name of the journal.
Thanks for the information all - one question - why is it poor form to put the journal name, just curious?
I have found that putting the full citation in your CV, followed by the word 'Forthcoming' is general protocol - for example, see http://www.higheredconsulting.com.au/research.html Cheers, George
Just a wild-arse guess: Suppose "Professor von Guise" submits an article on "The Black Death & the Economic & Demographic Decline of Fourteenth-Century Europe" to _Speculum_, but the article gets rejected. Suppose, after the initial rejection by _Speculum_, it does get published in _Journal of the Rocky Mountain Mediaeval and Renaissance Association_. And suppose that the Chairman of the Department of the Department of History just read Professor von Guise's article in _JRMMRA_ and then picks up Professor von Guise's resume listing said article as "submitted to _Speculum_." Doesn't look good, now, does it?
Again, I don't know, but I'm willing to guess. Some journals have more prestige than others. Your citation "submitted to XYZ" may imply something different that the citation "submitted to ABC." Jack
See example 60 (page 263) in APA Publication Mamual (5th Ed). Smith, D. T. ('2005' or 'in-press' as appicable). Title in italics. Manuscript submitted for publication.
