Volume 4, Issue 1
2006
Welcome to the 2006 general issue of PRism. We aim to provide public relations and communication researchers and practitioners with high standard, refereed online reference materials, and furnish new academic writers with a refereed outlet to encourage development of top quality scholarly work.
For this issue, we have trialled a new rolling publication schedule for refereed articles, and we are pleased to report that the process has resulted in rapid publication turnarounds throughout the year. Issue 4(1) is now complete, but we'll be continuing to use the great potential of staggered online publication in future issues, so please feel free to submit your research articles for refereeing at any time. Click here for submission guidelines.
Also don't forget to check the main PRism home page regularly for special issues.
