Please ensure that you consider the following guidelines when preparing your manuscript. Failure to do so may delay the processing of your submission.
All word limits include referencing and citation.
Artificial Intelligence
Authors should refer to the publisher's guidelines on acceptable use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools. All submissions must comply with these guidelines.
Structure
Title page
To ensure blind peer review, please only list the title and abstract on the submitted manuscript file.
The names of all authors, affiliations, contact details, biography (optional) and the corresponding author details must be completed online as part of the submission process. All authors must fit within the journal's definition of an author, detailed in our authorship guidelines.
Author names should include a forename and a surname. Forenames should not consist only of initials.
J. Bloggs is not preferred. The full name, Joe Bloggs is required (this will enhance the 'findability' of your publication)
The affiliation should ideally include ‘Department, Institution, City, Country’, however only the Institution and Country are mandatory.
Abstract
Research articles must have the main text prefaced by an abstract of no more than 250 words summarising the main arguments and conclusions of the article. This must have the heading ‘Abstract’ and be easily identified from the start of the main text.
A list of up to six key words may be placed below the abstract (optional).
The Abstract and Keywords should also be added to the metadata when making the initial online submission.
Main text
The body of the submission should be structured in a logical and easy to follow manner. A clear introduction section should be given that allows non-specialists in the subject an understanding of the publication and a background of the issue(s) involved. Methods, results, discussion and conclusion sections may then follow to clearly detail the information and research being presented.
Up to three level headings may be present and must be clearly identifiable using different font sizes, bold or italics. We suggest using Headings 1, 2 and 3 in MS-Word’s ‘Style’ section.
