EXTENDED SUMMARY


Our journal has decided to publish all articles with an Extended Summary starting from 2025. The Extended Abstract is a method that will facilitate the international readability and citation of the articles. Extended Abstracts will be requested in English for Turkish articles and in Turkish for English and Arabic articles.

Extended Abstract will be requested during the first submission of the articles to our journal. The Extended Abstract should be placed after the abstract and keywords before the main text of the article begins.


The Extended Abstract, which will discuss the problem, purpose, method and results of the study in more detail than the traditional abstract, will also pave the way for the articles to be cited internationally, as it will be in English for Turkish articles. Extended Abstracts in Turkish will be requested for articles submitted to our journal in English.

The extended abstract should preferably be in the range of 500-700 words and should clearly present the purpose, problem, method, findings and results of the study in subheadings.

Ethical Principles and Publication Policy

ATAD is published electronically as a “Refereed Journal” on the ULAKBİM DergiPark platform, three issues per year.

Articles sent for publication in ATAD must not have been previously published or sent for publication elsewhere. Studies previously presented at congresses are accepted, provided that this is stated. If the article includes some of the topics in a previously published article by the author(s), this must be noted, and a copy of the previous article must be sent along with the new article.

All articles undergo a rigorous review process, including a scan by the Dergipark similarity program. The Editor or Editorial Board Member has the authority to ensure that only articles meeting our high publication standards are published. This may involve sending articles back to the author(s) for correction, editing them in format, or rejecting them. The Editor or Editorial Board Member then sends the article they deem appropriate to the advisor(s) for review. If necessary, corrections may be requested from the author(s). Requesting the author's corrections does not mean the article will be published. These corrections must be completed and sent to the journal within 15 days. Otherwise, it will be evaluated as a new application. The responsible author will be informed whether the article has been accepted or rejected.

All works sent for publication in the journal are examined in the similarity program. This examination is conducted fairly and transparently, ensuring the plagiarism/similarity rate is at most 15%.
