Please pay attention to the following points when preparing your submission:
1. Ethics Committee: According to TRDizin’s 2020 criteria, approval from a recognized research ethics committee must be obtained for studies that use data collected from human participants. In addition, information about the ethics committee permission obtained (name of the committee, evaluation date, issue number of the ethical permission document) should be included in the "Method" section and title page of the study. In all submissions, ethics committee permission information must be fully stated by the authors.
2. Publication Language: Submissions to JUUFE can be in Turkish and English.
As of 2026, the articles in our journal will be published in both Turkish and English. Therefore, Turkish articles accepted for publication for the relevant issue will need to be translated into English. Articles written in English will not need to be translated into Turkish, but authors can do so if they wish.
If the publication language of the studies to be published in 2024 and 2025 is Turkish, it is obligatory to add both a short and an extended abstract in English. If the publication language is English, it is obligatory to add both a short and extended abstract in Turkish.
3. Plagiarism Scanning: A similarity report must be uploaded by the author when making a submission. The similarity report can be obtained from programs such as Turnitin© or iThenticate©. In addition, a new scan can be requested by intihal.net© in the DergiPark system during the submission process. Articles with a similarity rate of more than 20% will not be processed and will be returned to the author by the editor.
