Navigating the path to publication in peer-reviewed journals is complicated enough on its own, but for non-native English speakers, the challenge is even more painfully acute. Professor Marnie Petray and Professor Gail Clements, editors of the book: Linguistic Discrimination in US Higher Education, offered their unique perspectives on the roots of language bias and how this bias has impacted the world of academic publication.
What role does standard language ideology (SLI) play in propagating language bias?
How should journal editors take writing and language into consideration in their publication decisions?
How can reviewers more sensitively respond to submissions with non-standard English?
