Reference formatting
There are no strict requirements on reference formatting at submission. References can be in any style or format as long as the style is consistent. Where applicable, author(s) name(s), journal title/book title, chapter title/article title, year of publication, volume number/book chapter and the pagination must be present. Use of DOI is highly encouraged. The reference style used by the journal will be applied to the accepted article by SSHI. Note that missing data will be highlighted at proof stage for the author to correct. If you do wish to format the references yourself they should be arranged according to the following examples:

Reference style
References in the text should be cited by author's surname and the year of publication, e.g., Bhat (1997); Bean and Fix (1992, p. 44) (for references to a specific page). If more than one paper was published by the same author in a given year, the correct style is Smith (1985a) and Smith (1985b).
References should be listed alphabetically typed double-spaced at the end of the article. All references cited in the text must be listed at the end of the paper. Journal titles should be written out in full according to the form followed in the American Sociological Association. Only articles that have been published or are in press should be included in the references. Unpublished results or personal communications should be cited as such in the text.
