Subsections should be numbered 1.1, 1.2, etc., and sub-subsections should be numbered 1.1.1, 1.1.2, etc. Note that the abstract is not included in section numbering. Use this numbering also for internal cross-referencing: do not just refer to “the text”. Authors are urged to write as concisely as possible but not at the expense of clarity.

Keywords

Immediately after the abstract, provide a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 5 keywords.

1. INTRODUCTION

Provide an adequate background of the research problem, state the objectives and the significance of the study. Avoid a detailed literature review or a summary of the results.

2. METHODOLOGY

Provide sufficient detail to allow the work to be reproduced (i.e., population and sampling, research instrument, reliability and validity, data collection, data analysis, etc.).

3. RESULTS

Results should be clear and concise. Use tables and figures to clearly present your findings.

4. DISCUSSION and CONCLUSION

This should explore the significance of the results of the work, not repeat them. Discuss the main conclusions of the study and provide recommendations for future research.

REFERENCES

Follow the 6th edition of APA (American Psychological Association) Style. Please ensure that every reference cited in the text is also present in the reference list (and vice versa). References should be arranged alphabetically by author surname. 

Appendices

If there is more than one appendix, they should be identified as Appendix 1, Appendix 2, etc. Each table and/or figure in an appendix should be placed on a separate page.

Tables and Figures

Give every table and figure a brief but clear and explanatory title. The caption for a table should appear above the table, while the caption for a figure should appear below the figure.

Tables should be justified in the text. To avoid any unintended changes during the copy-editing process, please use the drawing canvas function for figures in Microsoft Word.

Use 10 pt. size for table/figure captions and the content. Boldface the word “Table” or “Figure” and the associated number in the caption (see below).
