Submission Preparation Checklist
As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.
-
The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
-
The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, or RTF document file format.
-
Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
-
The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
-
The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.
Author Guidelines
The optimal length of the article (including footnotes) should be in the range of 6000 - 7000 words, and the length of reports and reviews in the range of 1500 - 3000 words. Texts should be delivered to the editorial office in electronic form in Microsoft Word and pdf format. All images, graphics, tables and musical examples should be numbered in the order in which they appear in the text and delivered in separate files. At the same time, their descriptions should be included in the main text where they occur. These places should be numbered in accordance with the numbering of the pictures, graphics, tables and music examples. The first page should contain the title, full names of the authors and their contact addresses (postal and e-mail addresses) along with affiliation. The second page should contain the title (without authors' names), an abstract of 200 to 300 words and up to 10 keywords. All numbered pages should be written in font 12 with 1.5 spacing.
All submissions should include a short citation style in the text along with a full bibliographic list of sources cited at the end of the article, in accordance with the APA 7th edition guidelines (https://apastyle.apa.org/).
