Language Editing Services

Sports & Social Psychology offers language editing to help authors improve the clarity, grammar, and style of manuscripts written in English.

Optional service and separate charges

Language editing is optional and is charged separately from the article processing charge (APC). Basic English language editing is charged at USD 40 per 1,000 English words (USD 0.04 per word). For example, editing 5,000 English words at this base rate would cost USD 200. Before work begins, the scope of editing, billable word count, total fee, and delivery arrangements must be confirmed with the editorial office. See Language Editing Services for details.

Use of language editing does not guarantee acceptance. Manuscripts remain subject to the journal's editorial assessment and peer review policy.
