Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Scientific writing is essential for academic progress and technical innovation. Rules and ethics for writing are well-defined, and detailed guidelines for authors are available. Nevertheless, journals have a specific flavor which is not only related to the focus of content. Thus, for authors preparing a manuscript, the choice of journal is an important issue. Based on survey material and analyses of past publications, differences between Acta Acustica united with Acustica (AA.A) and JASA will be highlighted. Journal policy has to deal with the variety of manuscript content covering the span from fundamental science to technical applied papers. The readers expect both, and this is even more important for society journals like JASA and AA.A. Review processes that guarantee equal quality of technical and purely academic contributions, yet keep in mind their own specificity, are accordingly difficult to set up. Recent changes in handling the review of technical and applied papers in AA.A will be discussed.
