Journal of Embodied Research is published continuously online, with video articles made available as they become ready. General submission articles are usually published as part of issue #1 in any given year/volume. Proposals for special issues or sections are also welcomed and will usually be published as issue #2 of any given year/volume.

Please note that each JER video articles is published alongside a complete transcript of its textual content. The transcript is not a substitute for the video article and may not even make sense on its own, but it is important for indexing and accessibility. The transcript is produced after the video article itself is finalized. The author is responsible for producing an initial transcript, which is reformatted by the editorial team and then goes through the standard production process that is normally applied to textual articles.

To avoid unnecessary delays in the submission and review process, please ensure that your submissions adhere to the following before submitting:

1. The submission has not been previously published.


2. The submission includes the required metadata: title, author(s), abstract, and keywords.


3. Any third-party-owned materials used have been identified and appropriately cited.


4. All co-authors have had final oversight on the submission.


5. A link to the streaming video file has been provided in the submission document, with password if needed. Please do NOT attempt to upload a video file directly to the submission system, but instead include a streaming link (e.g., Vimeo or YouTube) to your draft video.
