The recommendations of the referees are meticulously followed by the editor. The journal has a right to make corrections in the articles and publish or unpublish the articles sent. In the manuscripts sent for the evaluation, the names of the authors and referees are kept confidential. 7) The authors may object to the negative views of the referees providing they submit evidence. This objection is examined and if it is necessary, views of different referees can be benefitted. 8) Referee-editor and editor-author can correspond with each other on the part of messages in MSS. Recommendations and extra warnings could be submitted. 9) In which edition an article, decided to be published, is going to be published is informed to the author. 10) All process is conducted as online. 11) The article should be started with an “introduction” part which includes in the approaches in literature about aim, content and research and the methods of the study. At the end of the article, there should be a “result” part in which the obtained findings are evaluated. 12) at the beginning of the article, there should be an (200-250 words) abstract (English and Turkish) which defines the study in shortly and briefly (for the articles written in a language other than Turkish, a Turkish abstract may be required if the journal editorship demands.). Keywords which make up at least 3 and at most 5 words should be included by leaving one blank line from the abstract. Subsequently, again by leaving one blank line, Turkish abstract and keywords should be included. The text of the abstracts in Turkish and English should be written with 7,5 font size, using Bookman Old Style font and leaving one blank line. 13) For the articles to be sent, the order below should be followed by considering the type of the articles (compilation / research / interpretation) and fields of science: Title in English (Capital letters / bold type character and 220 letters at most / 16 font size / Bookman Old Style) and Abstract (English) and Keywords. Except the above ones, the text should be written with 9 font size in general. 14) The articles shouldn’t exceed over 25 pages including notes, tables, shapes, graphic and references. A number should be given for the shapes, photos, graphics and drawings and when it is used in the text, this number should be defined and if the title is quoted, the source should be shown in sub-script. 15) The articles should be written with the software programmes (Word for Windows or Quark Macintosh) commonly used in computers in order to accelerate the process of composition, correction and edition. 16) The language of the journal is English and Turkish. If necessary, the articles from other languages might be accepted. 17) Below the title of the article, the name or title of the author, the institutions he/she works for and his/her e-mail shouldn’t be written. As the name of the authors can be seen by the editor, this information will be added to the article by him/her. While the articles are being added to the system, it should be ensured that any information about the author shouldn’t appear in the article. This issue is significant since it will provide more possibility to act free for the referees who will examine the article. |
