References Management
Citation accuracy, consistent referencing, and complete bibliographic information.
Citation Accuracy
Authors must cite all sources that materially support their arguments, methods, data, and conclusions.
Every in-text citation should correspond to a reference-list entry, and each reference-list entry should be cited in the manuscript, except where the journal’s style expressly provides otherwise.
Reference Style
Official citation and reference style
[Insert the journal’s confirmed citation and reference style, such as APA 7th edition, if formally adopted.]
Authors must apply one style consistently and follow the journal’s official template.
Bibliographic Details
References should include complete and accurate information, including:
- author names;
- publication year;
- title;
- journal or book title;
- volume and issue;
- page range or article number; and
- DOI or stable URL when available.
Reference Management Tools
Authors may use reference-management software to improve consistency and accuracy.
Use of such software does not remove the authors’ responsibility to verify every citation and bibliographic detail.
