Current Issue: Volume 108, Issue 4 (2024)
The editors of the Journal of Applied Communications are working on a publish-on-demand process. This issue represents the first trial of this process. As such, the issue will change as new articles are published. As with any new process, there may be some challenges as we work through it, but we think the result will be better for authors and readers in the longterm. Please be patient with us as we work through this new and exciting change. Lauri M. Baker, Executive Editor Holli Leggette, Managing Editor Annie Specht, Past EditorResearch
