Author Guidelines
Authors submitting articles for publication must follow the guidelines below:
- Manuscripts must be prepared in a single Microsoft Word file including charts, figures, tables, graphics, or any other materials relevant to the topics.
- A manuscript must have a minimum of 3,000 words, but should not exceed 7000 words or not more than 10 pages of single line space A4 size paper and Times New Roman 12 point font size. The paragraphs must only be left justified throughout with a paragraph space.
- Manuscripts submitted to the Research Committee must be the original work of the author/s, must not be submitted anywhere for publication, and not published partially or in full in any other journals.
- Author/s must maintain consistency in style throughout the manuscript. All manuscripts must contain at least 10 different citations and must follow layout formats of APA style latest version.
- All manuscripts must include the following components in order to achieve consistency in style that make the writing easier for readers:
- Title
- Author/s’ biography in brief (name, designation, affiliation, address, email ID)
- Abstract (within 150 to 250 words)
- Keywords (not more than 5 words or phrases)
- Main Headings (include introduction, body with several headings or sub-headings, and conclusion; include recommendations if any)
- Acknowledgements (if any)
- References
- Appendices (if any)
- But before submitting the manuscripts, the author/s must make sure that 3 electronic version files are prepared for submissions: 1) a cover page that bears the title of the article, the author/s’ name and affiliation, and an abstract with keywords, and email IDs or phone numbers of the author/s only; 2) a separate text only that should include the title of the article, main text and references without the name, affiliation and email IDs or phone numbers of the author/s; and 3) a latest abridged CV including all co-authors (if the manuscript is co-authored).
- All manuscripts will be desk screened, assessed by two blind reviewers, and finalized by editors to determine whether they meet the requirements of the journal.
- All submissions will basically be evaluated and selected as per the reports obtained from the blind reviewers. For any dispute regarding the selection of the manuscript for publication, the decision of the editorial board will be final.
- All authors should take all ethical responsibility for their submitted and published manuscripts. If submitted manuscripts have used false data or are found plagiarized from others’ work, they will be rejected without review and returned to the respective author/s.
- The author/s must agree on the terms and conditions of the copyright authorization of the articles to the journal after their manuscripts are accepted for publication.
- Only an electronic version of submissions will be accepted via email at paj@pncampus.edu.np. The journal will not accept the hard copy submissions.
