Abstract
Full presentations of many of the entries below have already been distributed to BMS subscribers and RC33 members over the BMS-RC33 distribution list 1
The Editors of
They also welcome applied papers that deal with the use of quantitative methods in practice, with teaching quantitative methods, or that present the use of a particular state-of-the-art method using an example for illustration. In spite of the focus on survey methodology, the Editors also encourage submissions on other important topics of social science research methods.
Methods, Data, Analyses is edited by Edith de Leeuw, Baerbel Knaeuper, Petra Stein, Marek Fuchs, and Henning Best. MDA is published in English online as an open-access journal and in print, and of course without author fees. MDA aims for a quick peer-review process. The editorial team will contact the authors with the results of evaluation at the latest eight weeks after submission. If the reviews have not been received by then, we provide a status update with a new target date. Papers can be submitted by email to
BMS & Sage Publications
Those who have received email announcements via the BMS-RC33 distribution list have often seen the logo “[bms-rc33] Call …” Now that the BMS has joined Sage Publications and publishes six research articles or notes per issue, we are in the process of establishing a backlog of reviewed articles and notes that have been accepted for publication. You are therefore strongly encouraged to submit your interesting methodological articles to the BMS and to encourage your colleagues or students to do the same. Once this backlog of accepted articles and notes is of sufficient size, we will be posting on our Web site (http://bms.sagepub.com) all accepted texts as soon as the review process is finished and before publication in a specific issue of the BMS.
Our BMS “Information for authors” can be found on the BMS Web site at Sage. Please keep us in mind even when participating in the different sociological research conferences often announced here in the BMS or via our distribution lists.
