Instructions for Authors
Last revised on 9 July 2020 page 1 of 7
Scope
Multisensory Research (MSR) is an interdisciplinary archival journal covering all aspects of multisensory processing including the control of action, cognition and attention. Research using any approach to increase our understanding of multisensory perceptual, behavioural, neural and computational mechanisms is encouraged. Empirical, neurophysiological, psychophysical, brain imaging, clinical, developmental, mathematical and computational analyses are welcome. Research will also be considered covering multisensory applications such as sensory substitution, crossmodal methods for delivering sensory information or multisensory approaches to robotics and engineering. Short communications and technical notes that draw attention to new developments will be included, as will reviews and commentaries on current issues. Special issues dealing with specific topics will be announced from time to time. Multisensory Research is a continuation of Seeing and Perceiving: A Journal of Multisensory Science, and of Spatial Vision.
Ethical and Legal Conditions
The publication of a manuscript in a peer-reviewed work is expected to follow standards of ethical behavior for all parties involved in the act of publishing: authors, editors, and reviewers. Authors, editors, and reviewers should thoroughly acquaint themselves with Brill’s publication ethics, which may be downloaded here: brill.com/page/ethics/publication-ethics-cope-compliance.
Online Submission
Authors should submit their manuscript online via the Editorial Manager (EM) online submission system at editorialmanager.com/msrbrill.
First-time users of EM need to register first. Go to the website and click on the "Register Now" link in the login menu. Enter the information requested. During registration, you can fill in your username and password. If you should forget your Username and Password, click on the "send login details" link in the login section, and enter your e-mail address exactly as you entered it when you registered. Your access codes will then be e-mailed to you.
Prior to submission, authors are encouraged to read the ‘Instructions for Authors’. When submitting via the website, you will be guided stepwise through the creation and uploading of the various files.
A revised document is uploaded the same way as the initial submission. The system automatically generates an electronic (PDF) proof, which is then used for reviewing purposes. All correspondence,including the editor’s request for revision and final decision, is sent by e-mail.
Authors also have the opportunity to suggest and oppose reviewers by submitting the names and (e-mail) addresses.
Supplementary Media / Data Files
To support and enhance your manuscript, MSR accepts electronic supplementary material, including supporting applications, high-resolution images, background datasets, sound or video clips, large
appendices, data tables and other items that cannot be included in the article PDF itself. Authors should submit the material in electronic format together with the other manuscript files and supply a concise
and descriptive caption for each file. In order to ensure that your submitted material is directly usable, please provide the data in one of the broadly accepted file formats for video, audio, etc. and limit the file size (e.g., for video: max. 3 GB). Supplementary files supplied will be published online at FigShare (www.figshare.com), to which reference is made in the published article on Brill Online Books and Journals, and vice versa.
File Formats
Most popular formats are allowed for the initial submission, as long as an editable source file (i.e., Word or LaTeX document) is included. Figures must be in digital format. Please refer to ‘Figures’ further in this document for more detailed instructions.
Contact Address
For any questions or problems relating to your manuscript please contact the Editors; Laurence Harris –harris@yorku.ca; Marc Ernst – marc.ernst@uni-ulm.de.
For eventual questions about Editorial Manager, authors can also contact the Brill EM Support Department at: em@brill.com.
When submitting a manuscript, please note:
− The editorial board tries to keep the reviewing process as short as possible and to inform the author of the final decision (accept/reject/revise) within two months of submission, whenever possible.
Submission Requirements
Language
Manuscripts should be written in English. Spelling (British or American) should be consistent throughout.
Manuscript Structure
Contributions should be typed with numbered pages, 1.5 or double line spacing and wide margins throughout.
The first page of an article should contain the title of the paper, the name(s) and address(es) of the author(s), a short title (not exceeding 50 characters, spaces included), and the name, e-mail address and postal address of the author to whom correspondence and proofs should be sent.
The manuscript title should be given in roman (The Title of the Manuscript), with capitals for the first letter of main words and should be as brief and informative as possible.
Authors’ names should be in roman type as normally used by the author, first name followed by family name, names separated by commas and between the last two names by ‘and’, references to institutes and addresses as superscripts (e.g. 1, or 1,2 in ascending order).
Affiliation: the institute where the work has been done should be indicated under the authors in roman type, first letters of major words in capitals. When the authors are based at different organizations this should be indicated in superscript in front of the institute (e.g. 1
Centre for Spatial Vision Sciences –corresponding to the references under ‘authors’).
E-mail addresses of corresponding authors may be added as numbered footnotes.
Summary and Keywords
Each article should be accompanied by a summary in English, which should mention all the principal facts and conclusions set forth in the paper. A similar summary in another relevant language may be added, but this is not required. The word limit for the summary is 250.
Three to eight keywords should be given.
Headings
Main headings in bold (Summary, Introduction, Material and methods, Results, Discussion,
Acknowledgements, References or other variants if appropriate), capitals only for first letter of sentence and first letters proper names, separated by white lines from text.
Second level headings in italics, flush left, capitals only for first letter of sentence and first letters proper names, separated by white lines from text. Sub-subheadings in roman type, aligned to the left, capitals only for first letter of sentence and first letters proper names, separated by a white line from preceding text, following text starting on next line.
Italics should only be used for scientific species names, words that need to be emphasized (no italics for: e.g., i.e., etc., cf.) and for mathematical and statistical variables such as p, F, U, T, N, r, but not for SD (standard deviation), SE (standard error), DF (degrees of freedom) and NS (non-significant).
Bold should only be used in exceptional cases of extra emphasis or in some formulas.
