SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Submitted manuscripts must be prepared as Microsoft Word documents (DOC or DOCX) and written in clear and concise English. Papers should be typed in 11-point Times New Roman font, with 1.5 line spacing, on A4 paper with 25 mm (1 inch) margins on all sides. The manuscript must be properly organized into required sections and include complete author information.
The total length of the manuscript must not exceed 15 pages, including tables and figures. Submissions exceeding this limit may be returned without review.
References and in-text citations must follow the APA (7th edition) referencing style. In-text citations should use the author–date format, for example: (Smith, 2020) or (Smith and Jones, 2021). Direct quotations must include page numbers, for example: (Smith, 2020, p. 15). All cited works must appear in the reference list at the end of the manuscript, arranged alphabetically by the surname of the first author.
Authors are strongly encouraged to consult the Guide for Authors and ensure that their manuscripts comply with the journal’s requirements regarding structure, formatting, referencing, and ethical standards. While detailed formatting may be finalized after acceptance, submitted manuscripts must substantially conform to these guidelines at the point of submission.
