KEYWORDS: ▪ Authors should choose 6 to 10 keywords related to the research topic. BODY OF THE ARTICLE ▪ The introduction should state clearly the objective of the paper as well as the motivation and context of the research. The literature review should be limited to the articles, books and other items that have a direct bearing on the topic being addressed. Theoretical papers may devote a full section to motivation and potential usefulness of the proposed theoretical framework. The empirical section should provide appropriate citations to the statistical methodology used and a complete explanation only if the methodology is new. Full details of the statistical analyses and results must be included in the paper itself. The conclusion should summarize key findings and state their importance to the field.

Main headings designate your major sections. Center main headings and use all capitals. Second-level headings should be flush with the left margin, and only the first letter of major words should be capitalized. Third-level headings should be indented and italicized; begin the first word with a capital, end the heading with a period, and then continue with your text. Do not use a fourth-level of headings. EQUATIONS ●Please do not save and submit any equations in “images” format because we cannot edit them.

Displayed equations are double numbered by Article, in parentheses. Variables are italicized in the equations and in the text PERMISSION TO USE FIGURES ● It is critically important to ask for permission to reuse figures from the copyright holder when you are writing the Article. Do not wait until you have submitted the manuscript to the editor or the publisher. If payment is required it is your responsibility to process that. Alternatively, you can seek a replacement figure. The permission citation should form part of the figure caption. FIGURE RESOLUTION ● At all times, figure resolution needs to be 600 dpi at the size it will be used. (Keep in mind that large figures will need to be downsized by our typesetter.) The exceptions are line art, which should be 800 dpi at the size it will be used, and grey scale charts and photos, which should be 400 dpi at the size they will be used. Figures downloaded from the Internet are generally not of good quality.
