Supplementary Material
Where appropriate, JCAL is anxious to support the publication of material that extends the value of published papers. This may be further illustrations, video material, fuller details of testing instruments used in empirical work, and so on.
Such material should not be necessary for readers to judge the scientific value and message of the original report. In other words the argument of the published report should be self-contained and complete. This supplementary material is an opportunity for the author to elaborate and illustrate that argument further for the interested reader. it will be made available online through the publishers website and readable by those who have a subscription to the journal.
In sum, Supplementary Material, such as data sets, movies or additional figures or tables, that will not be published in the print edition of the journal, but which will be viewable via the online edition, can be submitted for consideration.
How to represent supplementary material in your submission
It should be clearly stated at the time of submission that the Supplementary Material is intended to be made available through the online edition. If the size or format of the Supplementary Material is such that it cannot be accommodated on the journal’s Web site, the author agrees to make the Supplementary Material available free of charge on a permanent Web site, to which links will be set up from JCALs Web site. The author must advise Blackwell Publishing if the URL of the Web site where the Supplementary Material is located changes. The content must not be altered after the paper has been accepted for publication.
The availability of Supplementary Material should be indicated in the main manuscript by a paragraph, to appear after the References, headed ’Supplementary Material’ and providing titles of figures, tables, etc. In order to protect reviewer anonymity, material posted on the author’s website cannot be reviewed. If the size or format is such that it cannot be submitted online a copy on CD or disk must be provided. The Supplementary Material is an integral part of the article and will be reviewed accordingly.
