Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.
  • Submissions should be in document file format (doc, docx. rtf, or odt), following the author's guidelines and article template. Please be sure to use Mendeley to help with referencing. I've included a guide to using Mendeley as a reference manager. Follow the guidelines to avoid the rejection of your manuscript.
  • Please ensure that authors understand and follow these requirements before proceeding with the next step in article submission.
    The submitted article has not been published before or before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor). Articles published in conferences must be amended before submission with at least 35% differences from the original paper and pass our similarity check.
    Authors are bound by our Plagiarism Policy of a maximum of 20%. Therefore, careful consideration should be made before submitting an article. In any circumstances that the JOURNAL finds an article has been or is published elsewhere that is identical to that published in the JOURNAL, we will retract the article following the COPE guidelines on retracting articles and notify the author.
  • Authors are not advised to withdraw submitted manuscripts after they have completed the publication process (review, copyediting, layout, etc.). During this time, the JOURNAL has spent valuable resources in addition to the time spent in the process.
  • Since JOURNAL is a peer-reviewed journal, the instructions in Ensuring Anonymous Peer Review of Articles must be followed.
  • Enter your Whatsapp number in the comment field to make it easier for the editor to contact you if your email has a problem.
