ABSTRACT The abstract is written in single spacing, using 12-point Times New Roman font, with left and right alignment. The abstract includes the research background, the purpose of the writing, the methods used, findings, and conclusions. It consists of 150-300 words.
INTRODUCTION What is the purpose of the study? Why are you conducting the research? The main body of an article should begin with an introduction section that provides further details on the paper’s purpose, motivation, research methods, and findings. The introduction should be relatively non-technical, yet clear enough for knowledgeable readers to understand the manuscript's contribution.
LITERATURE The literature review is the theoretical core of an article. In this section, we will discuss the purpose of the literature review. We will also consider how one should search for appropriate literature to underpin the review and how this information should be managed. Finally, we will address four common questions faced by novice researchers when composing a literature review. These questions are: what aspects should I include in the literature review?; how should I synthesize information in the literature review?; how should I organize the literature review? What writing style should I use when writing the literature review?
RESEARCH METHOD The methods section explains the steps followed in conducting the research and also provides a brief rationale for the research methods used (Perry et al., 2003). It should contain enough detail to allow readers to evaluate the appropriateness of your methods, as well as the reliability and validity of your findings. Furthermore, the information should enable experienced researchers to replicate your study (American Psychological Association, 2001).
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Research findings should be presented concisely and clearly, directly addressing the research objectives or questions, while providing enough detail to justify the conclusions. Readers should understand how data were collected, how analyses were conducted, and why certain methods were chosen without lengthy explanations. A strong presentation shows the logical connection between data, analysis, and claims, allowing readers to assess the validity of the findings. Basic statistical procedures (e.g., descriptive statistics, simple tests, correlations) do not need detailed explanation, as readers are assumed to have foundational knowledge. However, advanced methods such as multiple regression, predictive modeling, or factor analysis should be explained with proper technical terms, including model structure, variable selection, and rationale. Using tables and figures (separate from the main text) is encouraged to highlight patterns, compare results, and present data summaries. Results should also clearly show the novelty of the study whether through new findings, applications, variables, or improved accuracy demonstrating the research's contribution to the field.
CONCLUSION In this section, the author presents a brief conclusion of the research findings with recommendations for advanced researchers or general readers. A conclusion may review the main points of the paper, but it should not simply replicate the abstract as a conclusion.
