The author’s name should consist of two words (first named followed by last name) and the last/family name can’t be abbreviated. If the name only has one word, the name can be written repeatedly (for example: Ratna Ratna or R. Ratna). The order of the author’s name must be agreed upon all members. The corresponding author should be specified by marking the name. When there are more than two authors, the names are separated by commas except for the last which is separated from the previous names by the word “and”. The name of the institution must be written in full (not abbreviated). In writing in the name of institution, give a comma between the names of major/study program, faculty, and university. If all authors come from the same institution, the coding should not be needed)

Example:

 

*First Author1, Second Author2, and Third Author3

 

1First Author’s Institution

2Second Author’s Institution

*Corresponding Author: First author’s email

 

Abstract

It should also consist of background, materials and methods, results, and conclusion. The paragraph orientates the reader about the overall issue addressed in the article, indicates the main aim or purposes of the study, explains the academic and/or practical importance of the study, briefly described the methodology used in the study, summarizes the main findings, indicate the contribution made by the study in filling gaps in the literature as a conclusion statement, and highlight the practical or managerial implications of the study’s findings where appropriate.

A maximum of 6-8 keywords with specific and relevant terms should be included in the article directly after the abstract that preferably reflect the discipline, sub-discipline, theme, research design and context of the study. The keywords should be typed in italics and in sentence case which means that only the first letter of the first keyword and the first letter of all proper nouns are written in capital letters. The keywords should be also alphabetically orders, separated by commas, and not stopped by a full stop after the last keyword.

The result section should present the trend of the findings, not in detail. It can be presented with tables and figures with sufficient information so that the reader can see which statistical analyses were conducted and why, and to justify the conclusion. Present the results in sequence that will logically support the hypothesis, or answer the question, stated in the introduction.

A brief description of the results being presented and other necessary information in a legend must be included in each table or figure.
