Copyright

Submission of a manuscript implies: that the work described has not been published before (except in the form of an abstract or as part of a published lecture, or thesis) that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere; that if and when the manuscript is accepted for publication, the authors agree to automatic transfer of the copyright to the publisher.

References

In the text, a reference identified by means of an author's name should be followed by the date of the reference in parentheses. When there are more than two authors, only the first author 's name should be mentioned, followed by 'et al'.

In the event that an author cited has had two or more works published during the same year, the reference, both in the text and in the reference list, should be identified by a lower-case letter like 'a' and 'b' after the date to distinguish the works.

The references should be arranged in alphabetical order at the end of the manuscript, the author should ensure that all mentioned references be present at the reference section.

Tables


Tables should be kept to a minimum and be designed to be as simple as possible. Tables are to be typed double-spaced throughout, including headings and footnotes. Each table should be on a separate page, numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals and supplied with a heading and a legend. Tables should be self-explanatory without reference to the text.

Discussion


The Discussion should interpret the findings in view of the results obtained in this and in past studies on this topic. The Results and Discussion sections can include subheadings, and when appropriate, both sections can be combined.
