# Pre-Submission Preflight (soctheory-submission)
> ST is theory-focused. There is no dataset, code, or replication package to deposit. The
> preflight centers on the *theory paper's* format, masking, ASA style, and ethics — not on
> empirical materials. Data, if present at all, is illustrative.
## Journal facts (verified; volatile items flagged)
- **Publisher / owner**: SAGE for the American Sociological Association (ASA); ST is the ASA's dedicated theory journal. Founded **1983**; published **quarterly (March / June / September / December)**.
- **Review**: **double-anonymous** (author and reviewer identities masked). ASA requires masking and treats simultaneous submission elsewhere as unethical.
- **Acceptance rate** and **number of reviewers per manuscript** are **not published** in the official sources — do not state a figure; treat as 待核实 if asked.
- **Processing fee**: **$25 non-refundable**, waived for ASA student members (Source 1; re-verify before paying). The official sources confirm only that ASA *student membership* triggers the waiver; they do not state any ASA-membership requirement to submit — treat a general "must I be an ASA member?" question as 待核实.
