Formatting Requirements

It is emphasized that the journal’s templates provided in the Author Guidelines or the Author's Guide under specific topics must be used.

Articles must include the following sections: Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results and Discussion, Conclusion, Acknowledgments, and References. Note that Results and Discussion can be presented separately in the text if this is more convenient for the researcher (Results; Discussion).

Literature reviews must include: Introduction, Development, Conclusions or Final Considerations, Acknowledgments, and References. It is worth noting that a Materials and Methods section can be included between the Introduction and the Development in a literature review manuscript, if desired, or incorporated within the Development.

The required formatting for sections is Times New Roman 12, bold, and numbered. If there are subtitles, they should be italicized and follow secondary numbering (e.g., 1. Introduction, 1.1 Example). Footnotes are not accepted—please remove them before submission to avoid issues. The body text of the document must be in Times New Roman 11.

All manuscripts must include the essential elements necessary to convey their content effectively. If your article includes videos and/or other supplementary material, these should be included with your initial submission for peer review purposes. Divide the article into clearly defined sections.
