• Language Length of Manuscript
  The length of the paper should normally be between 7-15 pages of A4 paper with (Top and Left Margin: of 3 cm, Bottom and Right Margin: of 2,5 cm). Authors are urged to write as concisely as possible, but not at the expense of clarity. Articles should be typed in multiple 1.5 spaced, in Times New Roman size 12 on one side of the paper only (Except the title page – see the Template)

Contents

• TITLE PAGE
  The title page is a separate page before the text. It should include the following information: 
  
  
  1. Title
     The title should be concise and informative. Try to avoid abbreviations and formulae where possible.
  2. Author’s names and affiliations
     Please indicate the given name and family name clearly. Below the names, present the authors' affiliation addresses (where the actual work was done). Indicate all affiliations, including Department, Faculty, Affiliation, Full Postal Address of Affiliation, and Country with a lower-case superscript letter immediately below the author's name.
  3. Corresponding author
     Clearly indicate who is willing to handle correspondence at all stages of refereeing, publication, and also post-publication. Ensure that telephone numbers (with country and area code) are provided in addition to the e-mail address and the complete postal address. 
  4. Abstract
     A concise and factual abstract is required (maximum length of 150-200 words). It starts with the general statement of the topics, the purpose of the study, the research method, main findings, and the conclusion. An abstract is presented separately above the main headings in the article, so it must be able to stand alone. References should, therefore, be avoided, but if essential, they must be cited in full, without reference to the references.
  5. Keywords
     Following the abstract, provide a maximum of 5 keywords, avoiding general and plural terms and multiple concepts (avoid, for example, 'and', 'of').

• MAIN HEADINGS
  The main headings include INTRODUCTION, METHOD, FINDING, DISCUSSION, and CONCLUSION. Authors are allowed to 1) Add LITERATURE REVIEW after the INTRODUCTION if needed, and 2) Combine the RESULTS and DISCUSSION into one section named as "RESULTS AND DISCUSSION" if necessary. Authors are also allowed to use subheadings under the main headings. If necessary,  APPENDIX may be included.
  
  1. Introduction
     Provide an adequate background. Explain how you addressed the problem and why it is important to answer it, and also clearly state the study's aims (how you think their answer would contribute to the existing scholarship on the subject). Suppose the author combines the Introduction with Literature Review. In that case, the author should also discuss the relation of your research article with other research(s), and any related theories (especially from the most relevant theories and high-reputation journals) should also be written briefly in the Introduction. It should be presented in paragraphs comprising 10-20% of the article's length.
  2. Literature Review (or, this section can be combined in "Introduction”).
     Review the key concepts or provide a summary of the existing works of literature. It can review books, scholarly articles, and relevant sources for particular issues. Next, the current State of the Arts (SotA) review should be carefully provided to show the explicit gap or demonstrate your research's novelty. One important criterion for choosing literature in your SotA review is to ensure that the literature are recent peer-reviewed articles or primary references (the last 5 to 10 years)
  3. Method
     Explain briefly the research method involving research design, population and sample, research instruments, data collection procedures, and data analysis. A very detailed description of your research method is not necessary to write. The proportion of this section is 10-15% of the total article length.
  4. Finding (This section may be combined with "Discussion")
     Provide the results of the study. The authors can include the statistical analysis either in the text or as tables and figures. If appropriate, you can also use pictures, graphs, and other instruments. NOTE: (If the authors do not combine The Results and Discussion section, please do NOT discuss the results or speculate as to why something happened in the results). The proportion of this section is 40-60% of the total article length.
  5. DiscussionThe author can provide the discussion by summarizing the results, interpreting the results by discussing whether the results support the hypothesis or not, connecting the results with previous studies and theory, discussing the implications in the broadest context possible, and giving a new understanding based on the research results. The limitations and direction for future researchers may also be provided.
  6. Conclusion
     It consists of the main conclusions clearly and explains the study's importance and relevance to the field. Limitations of the study should be addressed. Recommendations for future research should also be provided

• REFERENCES
  References must comply with the American Psychological Association (APA) 6th edition citation style.
  
  Citations in the text
  Please ensure that every reference cited in the text is also present in the reference list (and vice versa). Avoid citation in the abstract.
