Authors should consider the following guidelines when preparing a manuscript for submission.
1. Rules and Method of Submitting Articles
The article has not been published elsewhere before and has not been submitted to another publication simultaneously. To submit an article, it is necessary to register in the journal system and register the article after receiving the email containing the password.

If the article is supported by a specific institution or a specific funder, the text of appreciation and thanks to the specific sponsor must be included as a footnote on the first page. Otherwise, the consequences of non-insertion are the responsibility of the corresponding author. Before submitting the article to the journal, be sure to adjust your article according to the style sheet of the journal. Otherwise, your article will be returned.

Move footnotes to the bottom of the article pages.
3. References Guidelines
CITATIONS IN THE TEXT:
APA uses the author-date method of citation. The last name of the author and the date of publication are inserted in the text in the appropriate place. When referencing or summarizing a source, provide the author and year. When quoting or summarizing a particular passage, include the specific page or paragraph number, as well. When quoting in your paper, if a direct quote is less than 40 words, incorporate it into your text and use quotation marks. If a direct quote is more than 40 words, make the quotation a freestanding indented block of text and DO NOT use quotation marks.
CITATIONS IN THE REFERENCE LIST:
In general, references should contain the author's name, publication date, title, and publication information. Include the issue number if the journal is paginated by issue. For information obtained electronically or online, include the DOI: DOI - a unique alphanumeric string assigned to identify content and provide a persistent link to its location on the internet. The DOI is typically located on the first page of the electronic journal article near the copyright notice. When a DOI is used in your citation, no other retrieval information is needed. Use this format for the DOI in references: https://doi.org/xxxxxxx. If no DOI has been assigned to the content, provide the home page URL of the journal or of the book or report publisher. Do not insert a hyphen if you need to break a URL across lines; do not add a period after a URL, to prevent the impression that the period is part of the URL. In general, it is not necessary to include database information. Do not include retrieval dates unless the source material has changed over time.
