Introduction (500 - 2,000 words)

The introduction is written without subtitles/sub-chapters and states the beginning of the substance of the article which contains topics, phenomena/ research gaps/ theory gaps, problems, research objectives, state of the art, originality, grand theory/ theory used in research, and formulation of hypotheses. The introduction offers theoretical concepts, ideas, and presents the findings of previous research as a comparison, as well as strengthening, enriching, and improving discussion, analysis, and interpretation. The presentation should be chronologically coherent and the logical relationship between one paragraph and the next should be clear.

Research methods (500 - 1,000 words)

The method is sufficient information for the reader to follow the research flow well so that readers who will review or develop similar research get an overview of the steps of the research. This section consists of: population and sample, operationalization research variables, data used (types and sources), data collection techniques, and data analysis techniques (model analysis).

Results and Discussion (500 - 1,500 words)

The results are presented systematically, written without sub-chapters, and written in full first, then the author writes the results of the discussion. The results of the narrative containing information taken from the data do not tell what it is, but tell the meaning of the data or information. For information clarification purposes, the author may add tables, figures, etc. In addition, the results also present the items listed in the research objectives or the results of testing the proposed hypothesis along with every step taken for testing as written in the method section.
The discussion consists of interpreting the results, developing arguments by linking the results, theories, and opinions, including comparisons with the results of previous studies. It is also important to increase the possibility of the results of his research contributing to the development of science. This section does not rewrite the research data.

Conclusion (1,000 - 1,500 words)

Conclusions answer the research objectives or studies based on a more comprehensive understanding of the results and discussion of research. Presentation of conclusions is not in the form of point numbers but in the form of descriptive paragraphs.

Acknowledgement (Optional)
