GUIDELINES FOR AUTHORS
All contributors must submit articles to the Journal via online submission portal after registering with this website.
Papers submitted for publication are entered into a double-blind peer review system and normally read by at least two assessors. The Editors' decision will be final. Articles submitted to the Journal should be original pieces of work, not been published before and not being considered for publication elsewhere in its final form either in printed or electronic form.
Please make sure your manuscript is prepared according to the guidelines provided on our website.
If the online system is not responsive, submissions can be sent by e-mail to the editor. Manuscripts must be submitted as word documents (.txt, .doc, .rtf extensions are accepted).
Author(s) must submit two Word documents:
A title page with the title of manuscript, abstract, and keywords, and full author details including addresses and affiliations
Full manuscript anonymized (i.e. author details and self-references removed) ready for double-blind peer review. This should also include the abstract (maximum 150 words).
Any opinions expressed in the Journal are those of authors and do not necessarily those of the editors or publisher.
Authors are personally responsible for obtaining permission for the reprint of any previously published material.
By submitting a manuscript to the Journal, the author(s) agrees to pass copyright to the Journal and the Publisher. The Publisher is authorised to disseminate the submitted material in print and electronic formats following thorough peer-review and editorial process.
All manuscripts must be submitted in English or Arabic. To disseminate your research more effectively, you may consider getting professional help from our partner copyeditors
Tables and figures should be integrated in the text and the copy editors may alter the layout whenever necessary. The title page must include an abstract of about 150 words and 5 keywords. Full contact information with institutional affiliations and any acknowledgements must also be provided in the online submission but not in the submitted manuscript. Introduction, literature review and data should be kept to a minimum unless it is essential to the paper.
Manuscripts accepted for publication or published by the Journal cannot be distributed, reproduced or reprinted without prior permission of the Publisher.
Acknowledgements should be given either in a footnote on the first page or at the end of the manuscript, before the list of references.
The reference list should be placed at the end of the text and must only include sources referred to in the text. All items should be listed alphabetically by author and by year of publication. Italics are not used for titles of books and journals.
