Copyright form
Authors will be asked to transfer copyright of the article to the Publisher (or grant the Publisher exclusive publication and dissemination rights). This will ensure the widest possible protection and dissemination of information under copyright laws.
Proof reading
The purpose of the proof is to check for typesetting or conversion errors and the completeness and accuracy of the text, tables and figures. Substantial changes in content, e.g., new results, corrected values, title and authorship, are not allowed without the approval of the Editor. After online publication, further changes can only be made in the form of an Erratum, which will be hyperlinked to the article.
Ethical Guidelines for the author
• Authors should adhere to publication requirements that submitted work is original and has not been published elsewhere in any language. Work should not be submitted concurrently to more than one publication unless the editors have agreed to co-publication. If articles are co-published this fact should be made clear to readers.
• Copyright material (e.g. tables, figures or extensive quotations) should be reproduced only with appropriate permission and acknowledgement.
• Relevant previous work and publications, both by other researchers and the authors’ own, should be properly acknowledged and referenced.
• Data, text, figures or ideas originated by other researchers should be properly acknowledged and should not be presented as if they were the authors’ own
• All sources of research funding, including direct and indirect financial support, supply of equipment or materials, and other support (such as specialist statistical or writing assistance) should be disclosed.
• Authors should disclose the role of the research funder(s) or sponsor (if any) in the research design, execution, analysis, interpretation and reporting
• The research literature serves as a record not only of what has been discovered but also of who made the discovery. The authorship of research publications should therefore accurately reflect individuals’ contributions to the work and its reporting.
• In cases where major contributors are listed as authors while those who made less substantial, or purely technical, contributions to the research or to the publication are listed in an acknowledgement section, the criteria for authorship and acknowledgement should be agreed at the start of the project.
• Researchers should ensure that only those individuals who meet authorship criteria (i.e. made a substantial contribution to the work) are rewarded with authorship and that deserving authors are not omitted. Institutions and journal editors should encourage practices that prevent guest, gift, and ghost authorship.
• All authors should agree to be listed and should approve the submitted and accepted versions of the publication. Any change to the author list should be approved by all authors including any who have been removed from the list. The corresponding author should act as a point of contact between the editor and the other authors and should keep co-authors informed and involve them in major decisions about the publication (e.g. responding to reviewers’ comments).
• Authors should work with the editor or publisher to correct their work promptly if errors or omissions are discovered after publication.
• Authors should abide by relevant conventions, requirements, and regulations to make materials, reagents, software or datasets available to other researchers who request them. Researchers, institutions, and funders should have clear policies for handling such requests. Authors must also follow relevant journal standards. While proper acknowledgement is expected, researchers should not demand authorship as a condition for sharing materials.
• Authors should follow publishers’ requirements that work is not submitted to more than one publication for consideration at the same time.
• Authors should inform the editor if they withdraw their work from review, or choose not to respond to reviewer comments after receiving a conditional acceptance.
• Authors should respond to reviewers’ comments in a professional and timely manner.
• Appropriate approval, licensing or registration should be obtained before the research begins and details should be provided in the report (e.g. Institutional Review Board, Research Ethics Committee approval, national licensing authorities for the use of animals).
• If requested by editors, authors should supply evidence that reported research received the appropriate approval and was carried out ethically (e.g. copies of approvals, licences, participant consent forms).
• Researchers should not generally publish or share identifiable individual data collected in the course of research without specific consent from the individual (or their representative). Researchers should remember that many scholarly journals are now freely available on the internet, and should therefore be mindful of the risk of causing danger or upset to unintended readers (e.g. research participants or their families who recognise themselves from case studies, descriptions, images or pedigrees).
• The appropriate statistical analyses should be determined at the start of the study and a data analysis plan for the prespecified outcomes should be prepared and followed.
• Researchers should publish all meaningful research results that might contribute to understanding. In particular, there is an ethical responsibility to publish the findings of all clinical trials. The publication of unsuccessful studies or experiments that reject a hypothesis may help prevent others from wasting time and resources on similar projects. If findings from small studies and those that fail to reach statistically significant results can be combined to produce more useful information (e.g. by meta-analysis) then such findings should be published.
• Authors should supply research protocols to journal editors if requested (e.g. for clinical trials) so that reviewers and editors can compare the research report to the protocol to check that it was carried out as planned and that no relevant details have been omitted. Researchers should follow relevant requirements for clinical trial registration and should include the trial registration number in all publications arising from the trial.

Pages: 428-430 The purpose of the present study was conducted to see the effect of Chronotype and Career Status of Couples on Occupational Stress. Following the disproportional random sampling technique 100 male subjects were selected from considering two characteristics of population, Chronotype (Morning active, Afternoon active, & Evening active) and Career Status (single & dual career status. To assess the Chronotype of the subjects Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (Horn & Ostberg, 1976) was used and to measure Occupational Stress the Occupational Stress Index (OSI) (Shrivastava & Singh, 1984) was used. ANOVA was used to analyze the data. The results indicate that chronotype and career status of couples generate significant effect upon occupational stress of subjects. Occupational Stress of the Ss with Morningness Preference was lower than the Occupational Stress of the Ss with Eveningness Preference. Dual career couples have shown higher Occupational Stress than the Single career couples. No interactional effects of these two factors were found. Therefore, it may be concluded that the career status of couples and morningness-eveningness preference independently generate variance upon Occupational Stress.

Pages: 403-405 One third of the world's poor reside in India and about 87 percent of the poorest households do not have access to credit. For the development of a country and sustainability, it is important to focus on empowering women. In order to improve the socio-economic conditions of the population of any country, it has become important to empower women economically by enhancing their role to the utmost level. Women Empowerment refers to an increase in the strength of women such as spiritual, political, social or economic. The empowerment of women through micro-financing leads to benefits not only to the individual women, but also for the family and community as a whole through collective action for development. Microfinance is emerging as a powerful tool for poverty alleviation in the new economy. It refers to collection of banking practices built around providing small loans and accepting tiny deposits. The loans are offered to individuals who belong to the low-income group for income-generation purposes. All the government and non-governmental organizations are running various projects to uplift women. The job of these institutions doesn't end with just providing loans. They also stick to the borrower till they are capable to run their businesses on their own. As a result, large ratio of women has started small scale business from their homes and became role models to women in their communities. So, it is on record that the success rate of the micro-financing institutions in India is very high and these institutions are growing with every passing day. The more successful the micro-financing institutions will be in India, more will be the improvement rate of the poor section in the country.
