Illustrations in Scientific Papers
There are two types of illustrations in scientific papers: tables and figures. Illustrations classified as figures include diagrams, charts, graphs, maps, and photographs. Both tables and figures must meet the following formatting criteria:
Tables
Table titles must be placed above the body of the table, centered, and preceded by the table number. The title should be written in bold, using capital letters at the beginning of significant words, except for conjunctions. Do not use a period at the end of the title.
Tables should ideally fit on one page. However, if not possible, they may be continued on a separate page, in which case column headers must be repeated.
Each table must include a source, positioned at the bottom left of the table. The source should be written in italics, font size 11, single-spaced from the last line of the table. The source should indicate the origin and year of the data. If the table is the author's own work, write: processed data (no year).
______________________________________________________________________________
Figures
As with tables, figures must also include titles. The figure title should be placed below the figure, centered, and preceded by the figure number. The title should be written in bold, with capital letters at the beginning of significant words, excluding conjunctions. Do not use a period at the end of the title.
Each figure should be contained on a single page. Figures must also include a source, placed at the center bottom of the figure. The source should be written in italics, font size 11, and spaced 1.5 lines below the title. The source should indicate the origin and year of the image. If the figure is created by the author, write: processed data (no year).

Abstract
In accordance with ISO 214 (1976), the abstract must provide a comprehensive summary of the scientific work, including objectives, methodology, results, and conclusions. The following criteria must be met:
- The abstract must be written in English.
- It should be 150 to 250 words in length.
- It must not contain references to citations, figures, or tables.
- At the end of the abstract, include keywords—important terms frequently used in the article.
- The number of keywords should not exceed six words or phrases.

Introduction
The introduction should include the background of the problem, explaining the issue (object of study) being researched. This explanation should lead from general to specific. It must also describe the urgency and relevance of the issue, and the current situation surrounding it. Clearly define the problem boundaries.
This section must also contain the theoretical framework, which includes relevant theories, concepts, and definitions.
Additionally, the literature review must be included, summarizing previous research related to the topic. Authors should synthesize findings from past studies. Only studies from the last ten years may be cited in this section.
______________________________________________________________________________
Research Methodology
This section must describe the type of research, time and location of the study, data collection methods, population and sample, data analysis techniques, and data presentation.
The data collection method should include:
- Types of data by source (primary or secondary),
- Types of data by time dimension (time series, cross-sectional, etc.),
- Data collection techniques (survey, in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, observation, etc.),
- Instruments used (questionnaires, FGD guides, observation sheets, or data forms).
______________________________________________________________________________
Results and Discussion
Results
In this subsection, the author presents the analysis of the data collected using the data analysis techniques described in the research methodology section.
Discussion
This section provides a critical review of the research findings presented in the previous subsection. The discussion must include at least the following components:
- Alignment or misalignment with the theories outlined in the theoretical framework,
- The author's arguments related to the research findings,
- Comparisons with previous research findings.
______________________________________________________________________________
Conclusion
The conclusion provides answers to the research questions raised in the introduction. Therefore, the content of this section must be based on the author’s research findings.
Research Limitations
This section outlines the limitations of the study—elements or variables that were ideally part of the broader research scope, but due to methodological or procedural challenges, were beyond the researcher’s control and therefore excluded from the study.
Managerial Implications
This section explains the practical significance of the research results, particularly their relevance to stakeholders. It highlights how the findings can inform or improve policy quality, capacity, effectiveness, and efficiency of specific activities, potentially contributing to and influencing the productivity level of an organization.
Recommendations
The recommendations should be directly related to the findings and conclusions of the research. They may be addressed to future researchers or serve as suggestions for practical applications of the study results.
