How to Write the Title, Author Name, and Author Address

The manuscript title should be written at the top of the first page, centered. The author’s name (without academic titles) and affiliation address should also be centered below the article title. Authors must provide two line spaces between the title and the author’s name, and one line space between the author’s affiliation and the abstract title.

Keywords should be written below the abstract, arranged alphabetically, and separated by semicolons (;)—consisting of three to five words at most.

The corresponding author should be listed first, followed by the second, third, and so on. All communication regarding article revisions and final decisions will be sent via email to the corresponding author only. If there is more than one author, their names must be separated by commas (,).

If an author’s name consists of at least two words, the first name should not be abbreviated. However, if an author’s name consists of only one word, it should be written as is. In the online version, such names will be duplicated to form two words for metadata indexing purposes (Camdali & Tunc, 2006; Fridman, 2008).
