Abstract
A concise and factual abstract is required. The abstract should briefly state the purpose of the research, the principal findings, and the major conclusions of the study. Since the abstract is often presented separately from the main article, it should be able to stand alone and clearly convey the essence of the paper. Therefore, references should generally be avoided in the abstract; however, if necessary, only the author name(s) and year(s) should be cited. In addition, non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided to ensure clarity and readability.
Keywords: Manuscripts should contain at least 4 to 7 keywords.
