To ensure the integrity of the double-blind review for submission to this Journal, every effort should be made to prevent the identities of the authors and reviewers from being known to each other. This involves the authors, editors, and reviewers (who upload documents as part of their review) checking to see if the following steps have been taken concerning the text and the file properties:

• The document's authors have deleted their names from the text, and "Author" and the year are used in the references and footnotes instead of the authors' name, article title, etc.
• The authors of the document have removed personal information from the file properties by taking the following steps:
  • Microsoft Word for Windows:
    • Go to File
    • Select Info
    • Click on Check for Issues
    • Click on Inspect Document
    • In the Document Inspector dialog box, select the checkboxes to choose the type of hidden content you want to inspect.
    • Click Remove All
    • Click Close
    • Save the document
  • Microsoft Word for MacOS:
