If the manuscript is derived from a thesis or another scientific study, this must be indicated in a footnote on the first page of the article, placed under the article title.
Authors must upload their manuscripts using the article template. Submissions that do not comply with the template will be rejected by the editors without being sent for peer review.

Authors should upload an additional file containing their author details along with the manuscript. When submitting a new manuscript, select the "New Submission" tab, mark the submission language, submission requirements, notes for the editor, and policy statements, then click "Save and Continue" to proceed to the "Upload Submission" step. At this stage, select "Manuscript Text" to upload and approve the manuscript. Then, click "Add Another File", choose "Other", and upload the author information file.
If reviewers request revisions, the revised manuscript should be uploaded under the "Revisions" section.

The main text of the manuscript should not exceed 10,000 words (20 pages), excluding references and appendices. Appendices, if any, should be placed after the references. If the manuscript slightly exceeds this limit, the editorial team will decide whether to initiate the review process.

Table titles should be placed above the tables, while figure and graph titles should be placed below them. Titles should be indented by 1 cm.
