Manuscripts should be written on a 21x29.7 cm (A4) size page, leaving 2.5 cm margins from the edges, in 10.5 font size Times New Roman , double spaced and in left centered format. Care should be taken to ensure that the texts to be prepared (excluding the title page) do not exceed 25 pages, including the list of references and tables and figure/image captions.
The sections that should be included in the manuscripts are as follows:
Page 1 - Title page (This page should be uploaded as a separate document)
Page 2 - Turkish Title, Abstract and Keywords
Page 3 - English Title, Abstract and Keywords
Page 4 and following - Main Text
Next page - References
Next page - Table Text and Table (each table should be indicated on a separate page)
Next page - Figure/Figure Caption and Figure/Figures (each figure/figure should be indicated on a separate page)
Last Page - Appendices (footnotes, survey forms, etc.)
All images should be in 300 DPI resolution.
Title Page
The title page should be prepared to be uploaded to the system as a separate file, and information such as the author's name and institutional identity should not be mentioned directly or indirectly on any page other than the title page.

• The name and city of the institution where the study was conducted or to which the author(s) are affiliated (indicating authors from different departments or institutions) (Turkish and English)
• For articles with long titles, an abbreviated title not exceeding 80 characters, which is desired to appear at the top of the continuation pages when published in the journal
• Author's name, contact address, telephone and e-mail address for correspondence
• Name, project number and date of the fund or organization supporting the study, if any

Abstract
Introduction and Background: Brief information on the subject of the study and the reason for the research.
Purpose and unique significance: The main purpose of the research, what it aims to solve and its contribution to the literature.
Methods: A brief description of the methods and approaches used in the research.
Findings: The main findings of the research and the results obtained.
Conclusion and Recommendations: The results of the research and what these results mean, recommendations for future research or implementations.
These sections allow the reader to get a quick idea of the overall content and significance of the article. The abstract should be between 150-250 words and written in short and clear statements.
Main Text
Articles submitted to the journal should not exceed 8,000 words, excluding the Extended English Abstract. Research papers should be presented in four main sections. The first section is the introduction without a title. The following sections should be titled Methods, Results and Discussion (and, if necessary, an additional Conclusion and/or Acknowledgments section). This standard is not required in other fonts, but the text (except the introduction) should be divided into subheadings. Subheadings and subheadings of each subheading, if any, should be written in a way to distinguish the categories.
For studies that require Ethics Committee approval (like clinical or experimental studies with human or animals as subjects, and all kinds of research conducted with qualitative or quantitative approaches that require data collection from participants using surveys, interviews, focus group studies, observations, experiments, interview techniques, etc., or studies using retrospective personal data), it is necessary to specify the institution from which the approval or permission was obtained (with the date and number of the approval) in the method section. In such cases, the relevant document sample should be uploaded to the system separately.
