Author Guidelines 
 

The studies sent to be published in the International Journal of Social and Educational Sciences [IJOSES] are first examined by the editor or section editors regarding their appropriateness to the journal's publication policies. If the study is appropriate to the journal's publication policies, it is then sent to at least two peers for them to assess. In the case of one of the peer's negative assessments, it is then sent to a third peer. If the third peer's assessment is negative, it is then returned to its owner.

The Assessment Process

If you are considering submitting an article to our journal, we suggest you look over our journal, the journal's publication policy, and the author guide. Authors should be signed up first to submit work. After signing up, you can start submitting via the entry link, which includes three steps. In the texts that will be uploaded to the system, the name and other information should not be included in any way. The editors later include this information before publication.

The author (s) is responsible for the views and opinions expressed in the texts. All publication rights of the articles that are sent to be published and approved by the publishing council belong to the IJOSES / USEBD Journal. The mandates presented in the national or international symposiums can be submitted to the publication in the condition of being stated. The mandates given in the symposiums should not be published.

The editors checked every article submitted to the International Journal of Social and Educational in terms of their resemblance and plagiarism, using Sciences is che similarity programs such as iThenticate, Turnitin, and İntihal. Articles with more than %25 plagiarism are returned to the author without being taken to the assessment process. If the resemblance is not apparent in the articles or other works to the degree of %25 and above, the studies are sent to the two referees who are experts in the field. Regarding the positive report that referees receive, the article is published. In the case of one of the referees' adverse reports, depending on the report's content, if it is seen as necessary by the editor, the article is sent to a third referee. If the third referee's report is positive, the article is published; otherwise, it is not published. If the article is not assessed within the time given to the referee, the article is sent to another referee.
 

The articles are only submitted by the open journal system.

* Cases such as name similarities, surname changes, names that consist of Turkish letters, different spellings, and institution changes may create problems in publication/citation searches made by the author's name. Researchers need to obtain their depictor identity/number (ID). For this reason, all of our writers are required to register for ORCID. It is recommended that our authors should request their ORCID information and include this information in journals/articles since Orcid is going to be used to ensure standardization and in the joint studies that are going to be carried out with YOK. ORCID is the abbreviation of Open Researcher and Contributor ID. ORCID is a 16-digit, numbered URI compatible with the ISO Standard (27729), known as the International Standard Name Identifier (ISNI). You can create a free registration for an individual ORCID at http://orcid.org.

*Authors should upload their articles to the system after they write or edit their writings according to the journal article template.
 

*APA 6 style should be used in the in-text citations and references. I'd like you to please use the next link to get information about the APA 6 style. http://www.apastyle.org/learn/index.aspx

The studies sent to the journal should be within the 12,000-word limit, books and other introductions should be within the 1,600-word limit, and articles should be within the 5,000-word limit. Furthermore, Turkish and English abstracts of between 150 and 200 words should be added to the articles.
 

*The editorial board reviews the articles uploaded to the system by the authors and decides whether they will be considered for the assessment.
