The 13th Journal of the American Taxation Association Conference will be held in conjunction with the
ATA’s Midyear Meeting in San Antonio, TX, on February 23-24, 2007. Original papers addressing
interesting and relevant tax issues will be considered for the conference. Submissions to the conference
will be treated as submissions to JATA and should not be under review with any other journal. All
research methodologies (including, but not limited to, archival/empirical, analytical, behavioral,
experimental, and field studies) will be considered. Contingent on suitable revisions in accordance with
JATA’s normal review procedures, papers accepted for the conference will be published in a regular issue
of the journal, along with discussants’ comments. An award carrying a cash prize of $1,000 will be made
to the best conference paper as selected by the conference committee.
Conference papers will be made available to conference participants in advance of the midyear meeting
through the ATA web site. Papers not accepted for the conference will be treated as regular submissions
to JATA. Authors will be notified of the conference selection decision by December 1, 2006.
Manuscripts should be prepared in conformance with JATA’s published preparation and style guidelines
and submitted electronically in Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF format. To preserve anonymity, the cover
page should be submitted as a separate Word or PDF file. If the research utilizes experimental
instruments, questionnaires, cases, etc., this material should also be submitted in a separate file. With the
exception of the cover page, the identity of the author(s) should be deleted from the files. Files should be
transmitted as email attachments to Professor Bryan Cloyd at JATA@vt.edu. Please indicate in the
email that the paper is being submitted for the Conference.
To be considered, papers must be received no
later than October 1, 2006.
Contact Professor Cloyd by email or phone (540.231.3181) if file
compatibility or electronic submission presents a problem. The submission fee of $75 in U.S. funds
should be paid by credit card following instructions provided on the AAA web site
(https://aaahq.org/AAAForms/journals/jatasubmit.cfm).
Questions about the submission process may be directed to Professor Bryan Cloyd at the address shown
