  3. Article Structure: Manuscripts must include the following sections: title, abstract (in two languages), keywords, introduction, method, results & discussion, conclusion & recommendations, and references.

  4. Technical Format:

    • Font: Times New Roman, 12 pt (main text) and 10 pt (footnotes)

    • Spacing: 1.5 for body text; single spacing for block quotations over 40 words

    • Margins: 2.5 cm on all sides

    • Length: Between 5,000 and 7,000 words

  5. References: Use the APA 7th edition citation style. References should preferably come from reputable scientific journals, particularly those indexed in SINTA, Scopus, or other international databases.

  6. Tables and Figures: Tables and figures must be embedded within the main text, not submitted as separate files. Images must have a minimum resolution of 300 dpi, and tables should be clearly formatted with proper titles.
