Studies that the editorial board does not find appropriate for research and publication ethics are not subject to evaluation.

- Author name and address: Since the manuscripts are sent to the referees directly through the system (without making any changes in the file uploaded by the author), there should not be any information identifying the author of the article in order to ensure author-referee confidentiality. For this reason, the name(s) of the author(s) should not be included either in the manuscript or in the file name. For information about the author, the Article Cover Page should be filled in.

- Article Text: Manuscripts should not exceed 8,000 words, should be prepared as an MS Word file, and Book Antiqua font, 10.5 point font, should be used as the font, except for the special cases of some fields of study. If there is a special font used in the study, it must be sent with the manuscript. The study should begin with an Introduction, which should focus on the hypothesis, scope, and purpose of the study. The Development section, which can be divided into intermediate and sub-headings, should be supported by data, observations, opinions, comments and discussions.

Above the title, a descriptive caption in italics should encompass the entire title. Tables should be prepared using the "Insert Table" command in a Microsoft Office Word file and organized so that the data are easily read and understood. The data presented in the tables should be different from the data presented in the main text but should support and improve the main text.
