Manuscript Types:
The journal accepts the original research articles. An original research article presents original empirical findings or conceptual inquiries that have not been published anywhere before. Details, particularly about research methods, description of the results, and discussions/conclusions are required to ensure that the readers (and referees) have sufficient information to comprehend and benefit from the work. The articles may not contain persuasive arguments justifying policy recommendations or act as a decision-making tool for target audiences. To ensure an anonymous review, authors should not identify themselves directly or indirectly in the body text of their manuscript
Manuscript Structure:
Title, written brief, clear, and informative (a maximum of 16 words).
Author’s Name and Affiliations, provide the full name of each author, and the affiliations of each author at the time the research was completed, followed by institution and country. Where more than one author has contributed to the article, please provide detailed information on the corresponding author.
Abstract, written in English which contains research objectives, research method, and results, and article contributions.
Keywords, that are specific and reflect what is essential about the article.
Introduction, the main section of the introduction should start with an introductory section which provides more details about the paper’s purpose, motivation, research methods, and findings covers the background to the research issue or problem, as well as the urgency and rationalization of the research.
Literature Review, Contains previous literature related to the research and explains hypothesis development. The flow of all the ideas is required to be clear, linked, well-crafted and well developed. It serves as the source of the research’s question and especially the base or the hypotheses that respond to the research objective. Hypothesis development is not needed for qualitative research articles. The literature review is not limited to theory, but also empirical evidence. Research hypotheses (if any) must be built from theoretical concepts and supported by empirical studies (previous research).
Research Method, Describes the research plan or design based on the nature of the study. The method should be well elaborated enhancing the model, the analysis approach and the steps taken with following sub-sections i.e: Sampling (a description of the target population, the research context, and units of analysis; the sampling itself; and the respondents’ profiles); data collection; and measures (or measurements), in specification:
- Quantitative Research: Population and sample, data collection technique, research model, and analytical methods.
- Qualitative Research: case study type (i.e: ethnography, case study, etc), research setting or context, participants or data sources, data collection methods (i.e: interviews, focus groups, observations), and analytical techniques (i.e: thematic analysis, content analysis, narrative analysis). Also, outline efforts to achieve validity and reliability.
Results and Discussion, resents data analysis results, hypothesis testing (for quantitative research), answers to research questions, findings, and their interpretations.
Conclusions, Limitations, and Suggestions, section provides a brief summary of the research results and discussion, the limitations of the study, and suggestions for further research.
Reference, list all the reference documents cited in the text and recommended to use a reference manager such as Mendeley, Zotero, RefWorks, Endnote, and others. The articles use minimum 20 references, and minimum 80% publication from the last 5 years.
Table and Figure
- Tables and figures presenting data results should be efficiently displayed within the article.
- References to tables and figures must be included in the article.
- Authors should indicate in the text where tables and figures are attached.
- Tables and figures should be self-explanatory and interpretable without reference to the article.
- The source of each table and figure should be provided.
- Figures must be prepared in a printable format and version.
Citation and Reference Guidelines:
Citation and reference list should follow the American Psychological Association (APA) referencing style. In writing the reference, the author(s) are recommended to use reference management tools, such as Mendeley. Authors are encouraged to cite manuscripts mainly from primary source publications (journals) from the last ten years. Also, the authors should avoid excessively referencing their work (self-citation).
The basic format to list the reference documents:
- The reference list is arranged in alphabetical order by the authors’ last names.
- If there is more than one work by the same author, order them by publication date, oldest to newest.
- If there is no author, the title moves to that position and the entry is alphabetized by the first significant word, excluding words such as “A” or “The.” If the title is long, it may be shortened when citing in the text.
- The first line of the reference list entry is left-hand justified, while all subsequent lines are consistently indented.
- Use “&” instead of “and” when listing multiple authors of a source.
- Capitalize only the first word of the title and the subtitle, if there is one, plus any proper names – i. e. only those words that would normally be capitalized.
- Italicize the title of the book, the title of the journal/serial and the title of the web document.
- Non-English articles, please write down the translation of the article in brackets [ ] after the original article’s title. Note that the original article should be written in italics. Do not create separate lists for each type of information source.
