Preparation of the Paper: There is no particular standard pattern of presentation, but a research-based paper will include elements such as an introduction, stating aims and objectives of the research and a review of previous work; a statement of the sample, procedure and tests; a factual statement of the results and a discussion of their significance, stating implications for policy or practice.


Peer Review Process: Articles will be acknowledged by the journal upon receipt. After an internal editorial review, articles will be forwarded anonymously to at least two external reviewers.
