Authors should make their submissions via the online submission system to send their papers for review.

Note that we are currently migrating to a new version of OJS, and as a result, potential authors will need to contact us at support.ttijer@aaresearchindex.com to complete their submission.

All authors should include their ORCID in the paper.

Papers must contain at least 5500 words, including references.

All references must strictly follow the APA style (7th edition). DOIs must be included where available. If DOI is not available, insert another URL where the material was taken from.

As far as possible, the abstract must be in a single paragraph and must be between 150-250 words.

As far as possible, the conclusion must be in a single paragraph and must be between 175-300 words.

Authors may use either American English or British English in their paper but not a combination of both. While submitting their paper, authors should state which type of English they have used in their paper. In case they have forgotten to do that while submitting the paper via the online system, they are requested to send an email to editor.ttijer@aaresearchindex.com to inform us of the type of English they have used.

Guidelines for APA referencing (7th edition) can be found at: https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_formatting_and_style_guide/general_format.html

The template can be downloaded from the Author Guidelines section found at https://ojs.aaresearchindex.com/index.php/ttijer/about/submissions. You may also email support.ttijer@aaresearchindex.com to receive a copy via email.

We take references very seriously. Authors should ensure that all references are complete and written strictly as per APA 7th Edition. If the DOI of an article is not available, provide the URL of the webpage from where the material was taken.

If your paper has a survey, as far as possible, add the survey questions at the end of the paper (in the same document) in an appendix after the references. Avoid submitting supplementary files as far as possible. In case you are submitting a supplementary, please send us an email to explain the contents of each supplementary file. Submit all supplementary documents in MS Word format as far as possible, unless it is not possible.

Authors should also ensure that their papers are written in good English. If the paper is not written in good English, the paper can be rejected straight away. Authors whose native language is not English or who do not have a  good command of English are required to use an editing service to improve their papers before submission.

The author submitting the paper must ensure that the names and affiliations of all the other authors are correctly added to the system.TTIJER will return the paper for amendments if this is not done. This will delay the process considerably.

Papers that are not submitted according to the submission guidelines will be rejected.
