Appendices

Try to prevent references to other pages in the paper. If necessary, type (see p. XXX) in the text and explain in a separate document to which part of the text you want to refer. Please be specific: Mention page, paragraph and sentence.

 

Use italics for non-English words, to emphasize text, and for all kinds of titles (books, plays,

movies, and newspapers). Do not use italics to indicate quotes, for names of persons or organizations, or for geographical terms.Titles in italics are not put between quotation marks.

 

Use double quotation marks for quotes. Use single quotation marks only for quotes inside quotes. Quotes up to 40 words are integrated in the running text. Quotes longer than 40 words are set apart in a separate paragraph with special formatting(i.e., block formatting). Shift the left margin 1 centimeter to the left, and use Times Roman 12 point as the font. Add white lines above and beneath the quote.

 

When reporting quantitative results, please avoid excessive overlap between the text and the

tables. There is no need to repeat in the text all of the numbers that appear in a table.

 

Also, avoid excessive overlap between the Results section and the Discussion/ Conclusion section. The Results section should contain what you have found, and the Discussion or Conclusion section should contain your interpretation of what you have found (not just repeat what is already in the Results section). If you would like to present the results and discussion together, use a single section labeled Results and Discussion.
