Abstract and Keyword (Abstrak dan Kata Kunci)
Abstract is written using Times New Roman 10 pt. Abstract represents the
contents of the article consisting of 150-300 words consisting of only 4 paragraph with 2-5 keywords (key words) with the distance between rows 1
space. The following abstract contents are written in English. The abstract
component contains an introduction, research method (method), research
results (results), analysis (anlysis), and conclusions (disscusion). Abstract is
clear, does not contain acronyms, does not contain tables.
Background
Introduction essentially contains a description of the problem or reason of research or logical statement that leads to the main hypothesis or theme. The Introduction section should consist of:
- General background of research (tips: keep a maximum of one paragraph);
- State of the art or a brief study of other similar (previously) research literature to justify novelty research in this article (tips: one to two paragraphs);
- The reference libraries in the previous state of the art research section must be current, relevant, and original (primary literature) of the literature review not too extensive;
- Gap analysis or novelty gap based on state of the art (the gap statement should contain two elements, that is, from the important aspect of the research and what the uniqueness or novelty of the research is compared to previous research);
- Hypotheses (if any) are not always expressed and need not be in the form of a sentence.
- Writing in the introduction by using times new roman letter with font 12, space 1 and left-right and indent of 0 taps. Margin set with Top 2,5cm, Left 3cm, Bottom 2,75cm, Right 2,5cm and Gutter 0.
Material / Method
Provide sufficient details to allow the work to be reproduced by an independent researcher. Methods that are already published should be summarized and indicated by a reference. If quoting directly from a previously published method, use quotation marks and also cite the source. Any modifications to existing methods should also be described.
A Theory section (if necessarily added) should extend, not repeat, the background to the article already dealt with in the Introduction and lays the foundation for further work. A Calculation section represents a practical development from a theoretical basis.
Results and Discussion
Results should be clear and concise. Discussion should explore the significance of the results of the work, not repeat them. Avoid extensive citations and discussion of published literature.
The following components should be covered in the discussion section: How do your results relate to teh original question or objectives outlined in the Introduction section (what)? Do you provide interpretation scientifically for each of your results or findings presented (why)? Are your results consistent with what other investigators have reported (what else)? Or are there any differences?
Conclusions
The main conclusions of the study may be presented in a short Conclusions section, which may stand alone or form a subsection of a Discussion or Results and Discussion section. The conclusion section should lead the reader to the important matter of the paper. Suggestion or recommendation related to further research can also be added but not to confuse the research with an uncompleted work.
References
All references referred to in the text of teh article must be registered in the References section. The bibliography must contain reference libraries originating from at least 80% of primary sources (scientific journals) issued at the latest 10 (ten). The format of citations and preparation of bibliography must follow the APA 6th Edition format.
Writing references in text articles and bibliography should use reference management application programs, such as Mendeley, End Note and Zotero.
