AUTHOR GUIDELINES

Papers submitted to WVR must be an original piece of research based on data from the World Values Surveys. Papers present new evidence and novel insights of theoretical relevance to the theme of human values. Cross-national and cross-cultural comparisons as well as longitudinal studies taking advantage of the full spatial and temporal scope of the World Values Surveys are particularly welcome.


Papers must include a full reference list, with tables and figures placed at the end of the manuscript. Authors should follow the Chicago Style Manual and use APA citation style (i.e., referencing in the main text instead of in notes). There should be no extensive use of notes and all notes should be placed as footnotes (not endnotes) on the respective page. Manuscripts should be in a range between 8,000 and 12,000 words, including footnotes, references, as well as tables and figures.
