PSR J0742-2822 exhibits two distinct emission states that are identifiedby discrete changes in the observed pulse profile. These changes havepreviously been shown to correlate with changes in the derivative of thepulse frequency. In this paper, we use observations with the Parkesradio telescope at a centre frequency of 1369 and 3100 MHz to producehigh phase resolution polarization profiles for the two modes andperform a detailed study of the correlation between observed pulse shapeand spin-down rate. We find no correlation for at least 200 d prior to aglitch in the pulsar at MJD 550 22, following which the correlationbecomes strong. This suggests a link between the emission stateswitching phenomenon and glitch events. We discuss the possibility thatemission state switching is driven by the interaction between themagnetosphere and the interior of the neutron star.
