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.
Submission Preparation Checklist
- 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 Microsoft Word document file format.
- Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
- The design of the article corresponds to the requirements for the design of articles listed above; all illustrations, graphs, and tables are placed directly in the text, where they should be in the table of contents (and not at the end of the document).
- The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.
Warning! The authors are fully responsible for the accuracy of the material provided, the accuracy of the cited quotes, statistics, names, as well as the fact that the material does not contain data that is not subject to open publication. Articles submitted in violation of these requirements are not accepted for publication. The fact of plagiarizing uncovered by the editors is an unquestionable ground for rejecting the article.
