Submission Preflight (cps-submission)
The last gate before SAGE Track. CPS desk-screens on fit and basics, so a clean, correctly anonymized, within-limit package avoids an avoidable bounce. Run this checklist against the live SAGE author instructions before you click submit — volatile specifics change.
When to trigger
- Assembling the final files for SAGE Track (ScholarOne) submission
- Final anonymization and word-count pass
- Writing the data availability statement and confirming ORCID
- A submission was returned for a formatting or anonymity problem
Submission components
| Component | Requirement (检索于 2026-06;以官网为准) |
|---|---|
| Portal | SAGE Track (ScholarOne) — reuse an existing account if you have reviewed/authored within the past year |
| Anonymized manuscript | Identifying info removed from the main file (sent to reviewers) |
| Title page (separate) | Authors, affiliations, contact, acknowledgments — kept off the review file |
| Word count | Article max 11,000 words; references, tables, figures excluded |
| Abstract | Unstructured, ~150 words between title and body |
| References | APA-style author-date (SAGE house); in-text and list agree |
| ORCID | Required for the submitting author; co-authors encouraged to link before acceptance |
| Data availability statement | Required — available where / why not shared |
| Replication materials | Quantitative papers: staged for the CPS Dataverse (gates final acceptance) |
| Pre-analysis plan | Optional, anonymized, as supplementary material |
| Supplementary / online appendix | Robustness grids and secondary material |
Anonymization preflight (CPS is anonymous-reviewed)
- Remove author names, affiliations, acknowledgments, and grant numbers from the main file → title page.
- Neutralize obvious self-references ("in our prior work" → "prior work [Author, year]").
- Strip identifying metadata from the document and from any embedded files/figures.
- Anonymize any linked materials (OSF/pre-analysis plan) used during review.
Comparative-leverage last check
Before the formatting checklist, ask whether the review file still reads like a CPS paper after anonymization:
| Gate | Pass condition | Bounce risk |
|---|---|---|
| Comparative claim | The abstract and introduction state what travels across cases, regions, regimes, or time | A single-country result is submitted with only a broad comparative promise |
| Rival explanation | The design names the strongest comparative rival and shows how the evidence adjudicates it | Robustness appears as generic controls, not a debate-specific test |
| Scope condition | The manuscript says where the argument should and should not generalize | The contribution is framed as universal without leverage |
| Evidence-package fit | Supplemental files and replication materials support the comparative claim | Appendices contain unreferenced analyses or non-anonymized materials |
If any gate fails, route back before submission. A perfectly formatted paper can still be returned or desk-rejected if the comparative contribution is invisible.
Final checklist
- Anonymized manuscript + separate title page prepared
- Word count ≤ 11,000 (references/tables/figures excluded); count reported as required
- Unstructured ~150-word abstract present
- APA-style author-date references; every in-text cite has a list entry
- ORCID for the submitting author linked in SAGE Track
- Data availability statement included
- Replication package staged for the CPS Dataverse (quantitative papers)
- Figures meet SAGE specs (grayscale-safe, vector/high-res); exhibit numbers consistent
- All claims verified against the live SAGE author-instructions page
Anti-patterns
- Submitting to the wrong portal or an outdated URL — CPS uses SAGE Track (ScholarOne)
- Identifying info left in the main file or in document/figure metadata
- Over the word limit, or miscounting (forgetting refs/tables/figures are excluded)
- Missing ORCID for the submitting author, or missing the data availability statement
- Structured abstract or wrong citation style (CPS is APA-style author-date)
- Promising replication materials but not staging them — quant final acceptance is gated on the deposit
