Author Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit manuscripts to this journal. All submissions will undergo an initial editorial screening to determine whether they align with the journal’s aims and scope. Manuscripts that meet these criteria will proceed to a double-blind peer-review process before a final decision on acceptance or rejection is made.

Before submitting a manuscript, authors must ensure that they have obtained permission to use any copyrighted material included in the submission (e.g., images, documents, figures, datasets). All listed authors must consent to being identified as co-authors and must agree to the submission. Where applicable, research involving human participants, sensitive data, or institutional approval must be reviewed and authorized by an appropriate ethics committee in accordance with national and international regulations.

Submissions may be desk-rejected if they do not meet minimum quality standards. Authors should therefore ensure that the manuscript is clearly structured, the research design is sound, and the argumentation is coherent. Titles must be concise, and abstracts should accurately reflect the content of the study. Preparing the manuscript carefully will increase the likelihood of attracting qualified reviewers and progressing through the review process.

When you are confident that your manuscript meets these requirements, please proceed to review the complete Author Guidelines on this page and follow the submission checklist carefully.
