Journal Templates
Dear Author,
Our journal's blinded article template is designed so that, in our double-blind peer-review system, neither the author's name, who prepared the article, nor the names of the reviewers who uploaded comments to the system are seen by the author. This information is automatically deleted.
In order to prevent waste of effort and time, and to evaluate the manuscript drafts you send to The Journal, you must use Journal templates, which you can download to your computer using the following links on the journal website, and which contain explanations for the writing rules in the comments section.
Authors Information
Dear Author,
During the submission of the article, it is vital that you enter not only your own name but also the names and academic information of all the authors in the study, when your article is scanned by indexes such as Crossref, Google Scholar, Microsoft Scholar, Index Copernicus after it is published. Therefore, studies that do not include the names and academic information of all the authors may not be evaluated. Thank you for your understanding.
