  • Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
  • The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.

Author Guidelines

Structure
Your paper should be compiled in the following order: title page; abstract; keywords; main text
introduction, materials and methods, results, discussion; acknowledgments; declaration of
interest statement; references; appendices (as appropriate); table(s) with caption(s) (on individual
pages); figures; figure captions (as a list).
Authors should be aware that they are addressing an international audience. Articles should
present original work and, where appropriate, should acknowledge any significant contribution
of others. Manuscripts submitted to JEM for review should not have been accepted for
publication elsewhere.
Word Limits
A manuscript should be no more than 6000-9000 words; this limit includes figures,
references, and tables. This does not impose an absolute page limit on manuscripts;
longer manuscripts of merit can be published in the journal. The abstract should be
less than 250 words.
Page style
Articles should be typed in 12-point font on A4 page, paginated and double-spaced.
Margins should be set as top & bottom: 2,5 cm and left & right 2,5 cm. The title
should be followed by an abstract of 200 to 250 words and 4 to 6 keywords. Footnotes
should be avoided and endnotes kept to a minimum. All pages should be numbered.
References
Paper format including references should follow American Psychological Association
(APA) (7th Edition) style. Please review the guidelines on APA to ensure your manuscript
conforms to this reference style.
If you use EndNote to manage references, you can download the APA output file here.
Please use the following link for manuscript template before your submission.  
Your reference list should be in English. Do not use non-English titles and non-
English characters. If a source is not available in English, that is, if it does not have
an English title, write the original title then add its English translation in square
brackets.
JEM will expect that at least one author has an ORCID iD.
ORCID iDs: All published articles must include an ORCID iD for at least one author,
preferably the first author (see APA 7 ed. Section 2.7). The open researcher and
contributor identifier (ORCID) is a free, 16-digit, linkable, persistent digital
identifier (iD) that helps keep individual researchers distinguished from one
another, especially other researchers who may have the same name. Authors may want
to read “What is ORCID before registering for one.
