It is an introduction of the article (level one headings). The article structure contains
(a) Title; (b) Author(s) name, affiliation, and email address of corresponding author;
(c) Abstract; (d) Keywords; (e) Introduction); (f) Method; (g) Findings; (h) Discussion;
(i) Conclusion); (j) Acknowledgements; (k) Funding; (l) References; and (m) Appendices
(if any). Therefore, the article should clearly describe the background of the subject, the
author's work, including the method used, results, and concluding discussion on the
importance of the work.
Manuscripts should be typed in MS Word doc. format; using 12-pt Times new roman
font; left, right, top, and bottom margins are 3 cm; single-spaced on A4-sized paper; length:
between 4,000 and 7,000 words (including tables, figures, references, and appendices). It is
expected that the author will submit carefully written and proofread material.
Use Reference Management Software such as Zotero
(http://www.zotero.org), Mendeley (https://www.mendeley.com), etc. for citations and
references by following the style of the American Psychological Association (APA)
7th Edition. Careful checking for spelling and grammatical errors should be performed. It is
suggested to use Grammar Checker Software Grammarly (http://app.grammarly.com).
The introduction should clearly state the purpose of the paper. It includes a review of
related literature and research purpose in essay style. The introduction should include key
references to appropriate work. It states the significant contribution of the research. All
introductions should be presented in the forms of paragraphs, not pointers, and with the
proportion of 15-20% of the whole article length.
Author should provide an adequate background, and literatures review or in order to
record the existing solutions/method, to show which is the best of previous studies, to show
the main limitation of the previous studies, to show what do you hope to achieve (to solve the
limitation), and to show the scientific merit or novelties of the paper. Avoid a detailed
literature review or a summary of the results. Do not describe literatures review as author by
Method
This section discusses the research methodology (level one headings). This section
consists of several subsections telling about the research method description such as
the research design, participants, data collection (practical procedures), and data analysis
(practical procedures). Methods already published should be indicated by a reference: only
relevant modifications should be described. Do not repeat the details of established methods.
In the Method section, the proportion is 10-15% of the total article length, all presented
in the form of paragraphs in the subsections. All text paragraphs should be single-spaced, with
the first line indented. Double spacing should NOT be used anywhere in the manuscript. The
position and style of headings and subheadings should follow this template.
Results
This section deals with the research findings (level one headings). The findings
obtained from the research have to be supported by sufficient data. The research results and
the discovery must be the answers, or the research hypothesis stated previously in the
introduction part. The findings section consists of a description of the results of the data
analysis to answer the research question(s). The findings should summarize (scientific)
findings rather than providing data in great detail. Please highlight differences between your
results or findings and the previous publications by other researchers.
First findings
This section deals with the first findings (level two headings). The author is required to
present the results of the study with a detailed explanation. Xxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxx
xxx. Xxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxx.
Discussion
This section deals with the discussion of the research findings (level one headings). In
the Discussion section, the author should present it with a detailed explanation in several
subsections (it depends on the needs). The discussion should explore the significance of the
results of the work, not repeat them. In the discussion, it is the most important section of your
article. Here you get the chance to sell your data. Make the discussion corresponding to the
results, but do not reiterate the results. Often should begin with a summary of the main
scientific findings. The meanings of the findings should be shown from current theories and
references of the area addressed.
In the discussion section, you are comparing and contrasting the findings of the
current research with those from the previous research or the supporting theories. There
should be a similarity and contrast analysis. The following components should be covered in
discussion: (a) How do your results relate to the original question or objectives outlined in the
Introduction section? What is your finding of research? (what/how)? (b) Do you provide
interpretation scientifically for each of your results or findings presented (why)? This
scientific interpretation must be supported by valid analysis and characterization (why)? (c)
Are your results consistent with what other investigators have reported (what else)? Or are
there any differences?
The proportion of the Findings and the Discussion sections is 40-60% of the total
article length. Xxxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxx xxx xxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxx xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxx xxxxxxxx. Xxxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxx xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxx.
At the end of the Discussion section, there should be a closing statement of the
discussion. Xxxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxx xxx. Xxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxx xxxxxxxx xxxxxxx
xxxxxxxx xxxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxx xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxx.
Conclusion
This section deals with the conclusion (level one headings). The Conclusion section
consists of the summary, restatement of the main findings. It should state concisely the most
important propositions of the paper as well as the author's views of the practical implications
of the result. Tell how your work advances the field from the present state of knowledge.
Without a clear conclusion, reviewers and readers will find it difficult to judge the work, and
whether or not it merits publication in the journal. Do not repeat the Abstract, or just list
experimental results. Provide a clear scientific justification for your work, and indicate
possible applications and extensions. You can also suggest future research and point out those
that are underway.
Funding
References
This section deals with references (level one headings). Every source cited in the body of the
article should appear in the list of References, and all sources appearing in the list of
References should be cited in the body of the article. The references should be more up-to-
date (published in the last 5 years). The primary sources cited in your paper are in the forms of
journal articles, proceedings, research reports including theses and dissertations that can be
accessed online (show the permalink/DOI). There should be at least 80% of the total
references cited should be taken from journal articles (primary sources). Check each reference
against the source (author name, volume, issue, year, permalink/DOI). Use other published
articles in the same journal as models. The References should be presented alphabetically and
chronologically and be set to 12-pt Times new roman font, justified, with single line spacing
and hanging indent as on the following examples:
