Authors must supply a structured abstract set out under 5 sub-headings as below:
- Purpose;
- Design/methodology/approach;
- Findings if paper is empirical;
- Research limitations/implications;
- Originality/value of the paper.
- There should be an abstract of less than 500 words in total.
- In addition provide up to six keywords which encapsulate the principal topics of the paper and categorize your paper.
- Notes or Endnotes should be used only if absolutely necessary and must be identified in the text by consecutive numbers, enclosed in square brackets and listed at the end of the article. Figures, tables and charts should be supplied within the article itself. References to other publications must be in Harvard style and carefully checked for completeness, accuracy and consistency. This is very important in an electronic environment because it enables your readers to exploit the Reference Linking facility on the database and link back to the works you have cited through CrossRef. You should include all author names and initials and give any journal title in full.
