Summary and Keywords
9. All submitted articles must include Turkish and English abstracts. Keywords should be written in English/Turkish with a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 5, with the first letter capitalized under the abstract. The titles of the abstracts should be written with the first letter capitalized and left aligned. The abstract of the article should be a minimum of 120 words and a maximum of 250 words.
10. Abstracts and Keywords should be written in Times New Roman font, 10 pt and 9 pt, single-spaced, respectively. Only the titles of these sections should be bold.

Main Text and Section Headings
11. The main text should be written using Times New Roman font, 12 points, single-spaced and justified. The first lines of paragraphs should start 0.5 cm inside. The main title and subheadings of the article should be numbered in decimal form such as 1., 1.1., 1.1.1, starting from the Introduction (excluding the References) and written in bold. Subheadings should be made up to the third level (such as 1.1.2.) at the most in the text, and if necessary, lower-level headings should be written in italics and bold (without numbers). The first relevant title should be left aligned with its number, and the subheadings related to this title should start 1 cm inside with their numbering. In the article, the main headings should be in capital letters, only the first letter of the 2nd degree subheadings should be capitalized, and the first word of the 3rd degree subheadings should be in capital letters. Single line spacing should be left before and after the headings.

Tables, Figures and Graphics
12. Tables, figures and graphics should be centered on the page in a way that is numbered consecutively (Table 1, Table 2, Figure 1, Figure 2, Graphic 1, Graphic 2 etc.) in appropriate places in the text. Each table, figure or graphic should be given a title. The title should be written in Times New Roman, 10 points above the table, below the figure or graphic. A single point should be placed after the table, figure or graphic number and the title of the table, figure or graphic should be written. The paragraph spacing between the Title and the Table, Figure or Graphic should be "then 6 pt". Tables can also be used horizontally if needed. The text in tables, figures and graphics should be at least 9 points.
13. Tables should not be included in the text as a software program output, the author(s) should bring the results into tables themselves. The resolution of the figures should be at least 300 dpi.

Mathematical Equations
14. Mathematical equations/formulas should be written in the text as left aligned. Mathematical equations and formulas should be numbered in the article. Numbering should be done in parentheses at the far right of the line.

Acknowledgement
15. If the study is supported by a research institution or fund, the name of the supporting institution/organization and the project number should be written before the References section.

References
16. References in the text should be given in square brackets. References should be written in the formats given below in the references section, in 11 points.
