General Guidelines for Authors
The following guidelines govern the preparation of manuscripts submitted for publication in the Anadolu Business Intelligence and Data Analytics Journal (ANABIDA). In cases where specific issues are not addressed in these guidelines, the standards outlined in the American Psychological Association (APA) 7th Edition should be followed. Manuscripts that do not conform to these guidelines will not be considered for the review process.
- Manuscript template for the journal is here -> ARTICLE TEMPLATE FILE
- Copyright transform form is available here ->📝 ANABIDA COPYRIGHT TRANSFER FORM.docx
- Manuscripts must be prepared using the journal’s template in Microsoft Office Word 2019 or later versions and should be between 5,000 and 12,000 words, including everything.
- The language of the journal is English. The entire manuscript must be written in English.
- All manuscripts submitted to the journal must be original and not under review elsewhere.
- Full-text papers presented at conferences are not accepted.
- The abstract should not exceed 250 words. Below the abstract, 3 to 5 keywords must be listed in alphabetical order.
- If the manuscript is derived from a thesis, presentation, or another scientific publication, this must be indicated in a footnote on the first page of the manuscript.
- The manuscript must comply with publication ethics principles. An originality report generated by plagiarism detection software (such as Turnitin or iThenticate) must be uploaded to the system. Manuscripts with a similarity rate exceeding 30% will not be considered.
- The use of artificial intelligence in submitted manuscripts will also be reviewed. For more information on the ethical use of artificial intelligence in studies, please refer to the ethics guidelines page.
Declaration of Generative AI in Scientific Writing
- Authors are required to disclose the use of generative AI in the writing process when submitting their paper. This guidance applies strictly to the writing process and does not cover the use of AI tools for data analysis or deriving insights during the research.
- Generative AI and AI-assisted technologies should be used solely to enhance the readability and clarity of the manuscript.
- These technologies must be used under human supervision, with authors thoroughly reviewing and editing the output, as AI-generated content can sometimes appear credible while being inaccurate, incomplete, or biased. Authors bear full responsibility for the final content of their work.
- AI and AI-assisted technologies cannot be credited as an author or co-author, as authorship implies responsibilities that only humans can fulfill. As an example: Please read the generative AI policies of Elsevier Publishing.
Authors must declare their use of generative AI in the writing process by including a statement at the end of the manuscript upon submission. This statement will be included in the published version and should be placed in a new section before the references.
