Before You Submit
- Ensure your manuscript is original and has not been published or under review elsewhere.

Manuscript Preparation -- Structure & Formatting
1. Title Page
- Provide a concise yet descriptive title that accurately summarizes your work.
- List all authors' full names, affiliations (institution, city, country), and contact details (email).
- Clearly identify the corresponding author with full contact details.
- Include a running head (short title) of no more than50 characters if required.
2. Abstract & Keywords
- The abstract should be approximately 300 words, clearly stating the objective, methods, key findings, and conclusion. Avoid abbreviations and references in the abstract.
- Provide 4 to 10 keywords relevant for indexing and search-engine retrieval.
3. Main Text
- Use a standard, readable font (e.g., Times New Roman), size 12 pt.
- Double-spacing is preferred; set margins of at least 1 inch (or equivalent) on all sides.
- Do not use more than three levels of headings (e.g., Heading 1, Heading 2 and Heading 3).
- At first occurrence, provide the full form of any abbreviation, followed by the abbreviated form in parentheses.
- Use the word-processing application's table function rather than embedding spreadsheets; table numbering should use Arabic numerals (Table 1, Table 2, ...).
- Figures/images should carry appropriate captions and legends.
- All additional or supplementary files (if applicable) may be supplied in common formats such as PDF, MOV, XLS, or SWF.
4. Acknowledgements
- In a separate Acknowledgement section, recognise individuals/institutions who contributed to the manuscript preparation (e.g., editorial help, technical assistance), but who did not qualify for authorship.
5. References
- Ensure all cited material is properly referenced; do not reproduce text/data from other works without permission.
- Use a consistent reference style throughout.
- If you reuse images, tables or other copyrighted material, secure permission and acknowledge accordingly.
