1. General Matters

Papers must be in English. The main text of the manuscript must be in the range of 6,000-8,000 words. All pages should be numbered consecutively. The title page, submitted in a separate file, should contain: (i) the main title; (ii) authors’ names, affiliations, and email contacts; (iii) an abstract is no more than 250 words; (iv) up to five keywords; (v) highlights. The first page of the anonimized manuscript should contain the same data except (ii). All text must be in a one-column format. Text must be fully justified.

2. Abstract

The abstract is to be in fully-justified italicized text. Use the word Abstract in 11-point Arial Unicode MS, boldface type, centered relative to the column, initially capitalized. The abstract is to be in 11-point, single spaced type. Leave two blank lines between the abstract and the main text.

3. Main Title

The main title should be in 11-point Arial Unicode MS, boldface type. Capitalize the first letter of nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. Leave two blank lines after the title.

4. Authors’ Names and Affiliations

Authors’ names and affiliations are to be centered beneath the title and printed in 11-point Arial Unicode MS, non-boldface type. Multiple authors may be shown in a two or three-column format, with their affiliations below their respective names. Affiliations are centered below each author’s name, italicized, not bold. Include e-mail address if possible.

5. Main Text

Type your main text in 11-point Arial Unicode MS, single-spaced. Do not use double-spacing. Be sure your text is fully justified, that is, flush left and flush right. Please do not place any additional blank lines between paragraphs.

6. Figure and Table Captions

Figure and table captions follow the APA format.

7. Headings

           7.1 First-order headings should be 11-point Arial Unicode MS boldface, initially capitalized, flush left, with one blank line before, and one blank line after.

           7.2 Second-order headings should be 11-point Arial Unicode MS boldface, initially capitalized, flush left, with one blank line before, and one after.

           7.3 Third-order headings are discouraged. However, if you must use them, use 11-point Arial Unicode MS, boldface, initially capitalized, flush left, preceded by one blank line, followed by a period and your text on the same line.

8. Footnotes

Refraining from usage of footnotes is recommended by APA as this practice may distract or confuse readers. When applicable, incorporate additional information in the main text of the paper, but avoid inserting irrelevant material. Footnotes should briefly present the reader with meaningful information that enhances your argument. APA details the use of two types of footnotes: content and copyright. Please refer to the APA Publication Manual for more information.

9. Citation

Following the APA style, the reference should be cited in text by giving the last name of the author(s) followed by the year of publication in parentheses, e.g., Barton & Hall (1993); (Olson, 1991a, 1991b). Citations of particular pages should be of the form (Jacobs,1992, p.5).

The full references must be typed, double spaced, on a separate sheet at the end of the manuscript. They should include all authors’ names and initials, year of publication, title of article or book, the full title of the journal, volume, issue (if any) and page numbers and, for books and other print sources, the publisher’s name and place of publication, e.g.:

Lynch, K. A. (1960). The image of the city. Cambridge, MA: MIT Press. 

Hill, J. O., & Peters, J. C. (1998) Environmental contributions to the obesity epidemic. Science, 280(5368), 1371-4.

For more details of how to use the APA style, see Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association.

10. Figures and Tables

NJEDP accepts only electronic submissions of figures and tables. Preferred file formats are TIFF,  JPEG and EPS, with resolution preferably between 300 and 600 dpi. File name should not be excessively long. Each figure and table must be referred to in the text and will be printed in black and white unless absolutely necessary. All figures and tables must be clear and legible when printed in a single column size with a width of 13.00 cm., or a half-column size with a width of  6.50 cm.

11. Any manuscript that does not conform to the above instructions will be returned or will be declined for necessary revision before editorial and publication processes.
