Information For Authors

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.

• The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
• The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, RTF, or WordPerfect document file format.
• Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
• The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
• The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined under the NALT referencing style.
• If submitting to any section of the journal, the instructions in ensuring a Double Blind Review have been followed.
• Open Acces Policy: The journal provides direct open access to its content based on the principle of making research freely accessible to the public.
• Anti-plagiarism: All submitted manuscripts will be scanned for identification of similarities and will be analized by editors for plagiarism prevention.
• AI Authorship: Large Language Models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, Deepseek, do not currently satisfy our authorship criteria. Any use of AI by authors is strictly prohibited under any circumstances except as a research aid. Authors should paraphrase their articles in such a way that they satisfy academic ethics, as all submissions will be evaluated for AI authorship and if found to be written by Ai, will be rejected.
