2) The Content of the paper

Title: The title should be concise, informative, and written clearly.

Abstract: The abstract must consist of a brief statement about the purpose of your study, a concise description of the research design, participants, procedures, and analytical techniques used, a summary of the key findings of the research, and the implications or significance of the findings, including any recommendations for future research or practical applications. It must not be more than 250 words.

Introduction: It must contain (shortly and consecutively) a general background and a literature review (state of the art) as the basis of the brand new research question, statements of the brand new scientific article, main research problems, and previous findings related to the manuscript. This section should provide a clear background and context for the study. Authors should state the research question or hypothesis and the objectives of the study. The introduction sets the stage for why the research is important and how it contributes to the field.

Methods: Describe the methodology used in the study in detail. This includes information on the research design, participants/respondents, materials, procedures, and analytical techniques. The goal is to provide enough information for other researchers to replicate the study.

Result and Discussion: Present the findings of the research clearly and concisely. Use tables, figures, and charts where appropriate to illustrate key data points. Results should be presented without interpretation. Interpret and explain the results of the study by discussing how the findings align with or differ from previous research, explore the implications of the results, and suggest areas for future research. This section should also address any limitations of the study.

Conclusion: This is the final part, containing the conclusion of the study. The conclusion will be the answers to the hypothesis, the research purposes, and the research discoveries. The conclusions should not contain only the repetition of the results and discussions. It should be a summary of the research results, as the author expects from the research purposes or the hypothesis.

References: We fully recommend authors use reference management tools like Mendeley, Zotero, EndNote, etc. All the cited works must be properly listed in the Reference section. We encourage the manuscript to cite at least 30 references, of which 80% are primary sources from reputable database sources (e.g., Scopus, Web of Science, etc.). The cited works are the latest research and must contain references from various countries.
