Preparation of Manuscript

The authors should submit only papers that have been carefully proofread and polished. Manuscripts are accepted to understand that they are original or extended versions of previously published articles in conferences or journals. If the work received an official sponsorship, it has been duly released for open publication. Before submission, please ensure your paper is prepared using the journal paper template (IJASSH Template). The authors must refer to the International Journal of Advances in Social Sciences and Humanities (IJASSH) format and style on the basis of the Author Guidelines Template. Additionally, the authors should also include a Cover Letter as a Supplementary File in the submission step. It will ensure fast processing and publication. The journal writing format is explained as follows:

Title of the manuscript should be no more than 12 words, accurately describing the research's content.

Authors (and co-authors) names are written below the title of the manuscript without including their titles or degrees.

Authors' Affiliations are written below the names; the corresponding author's email is written below the affiliations.

Abstract consists of 200-250 words written in a single paragraph. It should be clear, informative, descriptive, and clearly state the problem, the proposed approach or solution, and point out major findings and conclusions.

Keywords consist of words or phrases that are important, specific, or representative of the article.

1. Introduction should provide a clear background, a clear statement of the problem, the relevant literature on the subject, the proposed approach or solution, the new value of research, and end with the purpose of the study.

2. Literature Review consists of a summary or analysis of all the previous studies the author read before doing his/her research. A literature review may be part of the introduction or in a section called research background. It provides the background on who has done related research, what that research has or has not uncovered and how the current research.

3. Materials and Methods include research chronological, including research design, procedures, instruments, and analysis techniques used to solve problems.

4. Results and Discussion should be an objective description of the results and should be concerning the purposes of the research.

5. Conclusion provides closure for the reader while reminding the reader of the contents and importance of the paper. It accomplishes this by stepping back from the specifics to view the bigger picture of the research. This section is usually one paragraph that simply and succinctly restates the main ideas and arguments, pulling everything together to help clarify the paper. A conclusion does not introduce new ideas; instead, it should clarify the intent and importance of the paper. It can also suggest possible future research on the topic.

6. Patents
This section is not mandatory but may be added if there are patents resulting from the work reported in this manuscript.

OR “The animal study protocol was approved by the Institutional Review Board (or Ethics Committee) of NAME OF INSTITUTE (protocol code XXX and date of approval).” for studies involving animals. OR “Ethical review and approval were waived for this study due to REASON (please provide a detailed justification).” OR “Not applicable” for studies not involving humans or animals.

Informed Consent Statement: Any research article describing a study involving humans should contain this statement. Please add “Informed consent was obtained from all subjects involved in the study.” OR “Patient consent was waived due to REASON (please provide a detailed justification).” OR “Not applicable.” for studies not involving humans. You might also choose to exclude this statement if the study did not involve humans. Written informed consent for publication must be obtained from participating patients who can be identified (including by the patients themselves). Please state “Written informed consent has been obtained from the patient(s) to publish this paper” if applicable.

Data Availability Statement: In this section, please provide details regarding where data supporting reported results can be found, including links to publicly archived datasets analyzed or generated during the study. Please refer to suggested Data Availability Statements in section “SRN Research Data Policies” at https://www.srn.intellectual.com/ethics. If the study did not report any data, you might add “Not applicable” here.

Acknowledgments: In this section, you can acknowledge any support given which is not covered by the author contribution or funding sections. This may include administrative and technical support, or donations in kind (e.g., materials used for experiments).

Appendix A: The appendix is an optional section that can contain details and data supplemental to the main text—for example, explanations of experimental details that would disrupt the flow of the main text but nonetheless remain crucial to understanding and reproducing the research shown; figures of replicates for experiments of which representative data is shown in the main text can be added here if brief, or as Supplementary data. Mathematical proofs of results not central to the paper can be added as an appendix.
