Proof Corrections

AUTHOR RESOURCE

Proof Corrections

Production proofs are an opportunity to identify layout and factual errors before the article is finalized.

Practical checklist

1. Inspect author names, figures and references.
2. Verify equations, tables and citations.
3. Return needed changes within the period communicated by the journal.

Additional considerations

Make sure that statements are supported by appropriate references and that your writing clearly distinguishes reported evidence, interpretation and recommendations. Review the original journal instructions for detailed format rules and current requirements.
