Parameter: Jurnal Matematika, Statistika dan Terapannya considers scholarly manuscripts that fall within the journal’s Focus and Scope. Submissions should offer a clear contribution to knowledge, demonstrate methodological or analytical rigor, and comply with the journal’s ethical and formatting requirements. Authors should identify the manuscript type when submitting their work.

1. Original Research Articles

Original Research Articles report previously unpublished findings from empirical, experimental, observational, computational, or other systematic investigations. Manuscripts should present a clearly defined research problem, an appropriate research design, transparent methods, and findings supported by evidence. The discussion should explain the contribution of the study, its relationship to previous research, and its limitations.

The recommended structure includes a Title, Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and Conclusion, followed by relevant declarations and References. Results and Discussion may be combined when appropriate to the study.

2. Review Articles

Review Articles provide a critical synthesis of existing knowledge on a clearly defined topic within the journal’s scope. A review should go beyond summarizing individual publications by evaluating the evidence, identifying areas of agreement and disagreement, clarifying research gaps, and proposing directions for further investigation.

• Narrative Reviews should explain the purpose, scope, and basis for selecting the literature and provide a coherent, critical analysis of the topic.
• Systematic Reviews should state a focused review question and report transparent procedures for searching, selecting, appraising, and synthesizing relevant studies.
• Scoping Reviews should define the scope of inquiry and describe how the available literature is identified, selected, and mapped.
• Meta-Analyses should explain study eligibility, data extraction, effect-size calculation, statistical synthesis, and the assessment of heterogeneity and potential bias, as applicable.

The recommended structure includes a Title, Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Review Methods or Approach, Findings or Thematic Synthesis, Discussion, Conclusion, and References.

3. Theoretical and Mathematical Articles

Theoretical and Mathematical Articles present original theoretical developments, mathematical results, models, proofs, or analytical frameworks relevant to the journal’s scope. Submissions should clearly explain the problem addressed, specify definitions and assumptions, and demonstrate how the proposed results advance existing knowledge.

Mathematical arguments should be logically sound and supported by adequate proofs or derivations. Examples, numerical illustrations, or applications may be included to clarify the significance and implications of the results.

The recommended structure includes a Title, Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Preliminaries or Theoretical Background, Main Results, Proofs or Derivations, Discussion or Applications, Conclusion, and References. Section headings may be adapted to the nature of the contribution.

4. Methodological Articles

Methodological Articles introduce or substantially improve research methods, measurement procedures, analytical techniques, algorithms, experimental protocols, or computational approaches. Manuscripts should identify the methodological problem, explain the proposed approach in sufficient detail, and provide evidence of its validity, performance, or practical usefulness.

Where appropriate, the proposed method should be evaluated against existing approaches using empirical data, simulations, benchmark problems, or other suitable validation procedures. Authors should discuss assumptions, reproducibility, limitations, and conditions of application.

The recommended structure includes a Title, Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Proposed Method, Validation or Evaluation, Results, Discussion, Conclusion, and References.

5. Short Communications

Short Communications present concise reports of original findings, focused investigations, or technical advances that offer a clear scholarly contribution but do not require the length of a full research article. The shorter format does not reduce the requirements for methodological rigor, ethical compliance, or sufficient evidence to support the conclusions.

Manuscripts should provide enough information for readers to understand and assess the research. Incomplete studies or unsupported preliminary claims are not suitable solely because they are submitted as Short Communications.

The recommended structure includes a Title, Abstract, Keywords, a brief Introduction, Methods, Results and Discussion, Conclusion, and References.
