Continuous Pagination vs. Non-Continuous Pagination
There are two ways to number the pages of a journal:
Continuous pagination: each issue in a volume continues numbering the pages from the previous issue.
Non-continuous pagination: each issue in a volume restarts numbering the pages from page 1
Kandel, E. R., & Squire, L. R. (2000, November 10). Neuroscience: Breaking down scientific barriers to the study of brain and mind. Science, 290, pp. 1113-1120.
In this case because each issue of the journal begins on the page after the last page of the previous issue, include only the volume number.
Simmons, C., & Becker-Olsen, K. (2006). Achieving marketing objectives through social sponsorships. Journal of Marketing, 70(4), 154-169.
In this case because each issue of the journal begins on page 1, include the journal volume number and issue number.
