Author Guidelines

The title, authors, and affiliations should all be included on a title page as the first page of the manuscript file. The title (in bold) should be not more than 15 words and should be centered. The title should be concise and informative. Include authors contact information as follows:

• The name(s) of the author(s)
• Address of the author/s
• The author(s), i.e. Institution /University/, Department, Country/City, State
• A clear indication and an active address of the corresponding author (institutions, postal address, telephone, e-mail etc. is required)

The Abstract comes after the title page in the manuscript file. The abstract should be graspable and the use of abbreviations should be avoided and should not exceed 250 words and should be arranged for the original articles: Purpose; Research Methods (sampling, instruments and analysis method); Results (main research findings), Conclusion(s) (the implications drawn). 4 to 6 keywords should be itemized below the abstract.

The introduction should provide the background that situates the manuscript into context, allowing readers to apprehend the purpose, significance and the problem addressed. Also, includes a brief review of the key controversies in the field.

The methods section should provide enough detail to allow suitably skilled investigators to fully replicate the study. Specific information and/or protocols such as study design/approaches, sample, instruments, data analysis methods, procedures and ethics should be included in detail.

These sections may all be separate or may be combined to create a mixed results/ discussion section (commonly labeled "Results and Discussion"). This section can be further divided into subsections, each with a concise sub-heading, as appropriate. Together, these sections should describe the results and the interpretation of these results. Authors should explain how the results relate to the objectives presented as a basis of the study and provide a succinct explanation of the implications of the findings, particularly in relation to previous related studies and potential future directions for research.

Except tables requiring condensation, the remaining manuscript texts including title, headings, references, quotations, figure captions, with normal margins all around and should be 1.5 times single spacing. The Journal requires using a standard of 12 font size and Times New Romans throughout. The acceptable format for electronic submission is micro-soft (MS) Word.
