Author Guidelines

Authors must meticulously review the journal's policies and standards prior to manuscript submission and prepare the paper in accordance with the specifications outlined on this page.

All manuscripts must be submitted autonomously via the online submission system. Manuscripts submitted over email or in bulk will not be accepted. Manuscripts must be composed in English, featuring a clear and succinct narrative. Non-native English authors are strongly advised to have their manuscripts reviewed by a proficient language editor. Should the text exhibit linguistic inaccuracies that hinder readability, the author will be requested to revise it. Either British or American spelling may be employed, as long as it remains consistent throughout the book. Non-standard abbreviations must be explicitly declared upon their initial usage. 

Each contribution must include the following files:

• Manuscript Text: This document constitutes the principal section of the paper, encompassing the title, author names, affiliations, email addresses, and ORCID identifiers. The manuscript's length varies between 4000 and 9000 words, inclusive of the bibliography.
• Similarity Report: Authors must submit plagiarism verification results indicating a maximum similarity rate of 20% via the Turnitin application upon manuscript submission. This condition pertains to the criteria established by academic institutions, publications, or research organizations, stipulating that the degree of similarity in scientific work must not surpass 20%.

Authors must utilize the Microsoft Word template and comply with all rules specified within it when preparing the manuscript. Should revisions be requested for the manuscript's potential acceptance, authors must submit the revised manuscript accompanied by written responses to the comments from the editors and reviewers.

Manuscripts, supporting papers, revisions, and galley proofs of accepted manuscripts are submitted exclusively via an online submission system. We anticipate responses from authors at each stage. Occasionally, the email server may direct communications transmitted over the system to the spam folder. To ensure they don't miss manuscript status updates and other communications, authors need to regularly check their spam folders.
