Script Writing Format

Manuscripts written must be composed of the following components of scientific articles:

  1. Article Title: The title must be written briefly and clearly, and must correctly indicate the results of the research that has been carried out, not allowing for various opportunities and interpretations. Article titles should not contain abbreviations that are not commonly used. The title is a maximum of 16 words. The long title becomes the main title and sub-heading. Scientific names and foreign terms are printed in italics.
  2. Author's Name and Affiliation: All authors' full names are included in the manuscript without an academic degree. Correspondence authors must be marked with an asterisk *). If there is more than one author, the author names are separated by a comma (,). The author's affiliation is written in full below the author's line. Affiliates must not mention the position of the author, for example lecturer or student. Mark author names with affiliation number superscript behind the name.
  3. Abstract and Keywords: The number of words is limited to a maximum of 200 words. Abstracts should be as concise as possible, accurate and clear and describe what you did and confirm the results of the research. Abstract contains: background (1-2 sentences), purpose (1 sentence), method (3-5 sentences), results (3-5 sentences), and conclusion (1 sentence) made in 1 paragraph. The keywords in the abstract are 3-5 words.
  4. Introduction: The introduction contains the urgency and background of the research describing problems with the inverted pyramid method starting from global, national and local. In the scientific article format, no literature review is allowed as in the research report, but it is realized in the form of a state of the art literature review to show the scientific novelty of the article. List of references (relevant literature or research results) using a number of sources in each sentence. The number of pages in the introduction is 1-1.5 pages. At the end of the introduction it should be stated explicitly the purpose of the study of the article.
  5. Methods: Methods describe the type of research, location and time of research, population and samples, sampling techniques, data collection techniques, data analysis, and data presentation. For research using tools and materials, it is necessary to write down the specifications of the tools and materials used. Qualitative research such as case studies, phenomenology, ethnography, etc., need to add descriptions to check the validity of the research results. Paragraphs begin with a word that is indented 10 mm and must not use writing organization into "children of sub-headings" in this section. Shown in 1-2 paragraphs.
  6. Results and Discussion: The results and discussion contain the findings of research/development and scientific discussion. Write down scientific findings (scientific findings) obtained from the results of research that has been carried out but must be supported by adequate data. The scientific findings referred to here are not data obtained from research results. These scientific findings must be explained scientifically including: What are the scientific findings obtained? Why did that happen? Why such a variable trend? All these questions must be explained scientifically, not only descriptively if necessary supported by adequate scientific basis phenomena. In addition, the comparison with existing concepts and comparisons with previous studies must also be explained, whether the results of the research are appropriate or not, for the better or not, and other aspects. In this chapter, it is also recommended to write down the implications of the research results, both theoretical and applied.
  7. Conclusion: The conclusion does not contain a repetition of the results and discussion, but rather a summary of the findings as expected in the goal or hypothesis. If necessary, at the end of the conclusion can also be written things that will be done related to the next idea of the research. Conclusions are expressed as paragraphs. Numbering or itemizing is not permitted in this chapter. Sub-chapters (eg A. Conclusion, B. Suggestions) are also not allowed in this chapter.
  8. Acknowledgments (Optional): Acknowledgments are only addressed to research funders or donors. Thanks can also be conveyed to those who helped carry out the research.
  9. Bibliography: All references referred to in the text of the article must be listed in the Bibliography section. The bibliography must contain a minimum of 15 (fifteen) reference libraries originating from 80% of primary sources (scientific journals, conference proceedings, research reference books) published in the last 5 (five) years. Writing references using a number system (Vancouver style). Numbers are arranged according to

……………………….. already reported (1)
