Reference Format Requirements:
(Improper reference format will delay your manuscript publishing date)
In the main text:
(a) For single author: the author's name and the year of publication. For example: Smith (1999) developed….
(b) Two authors: both authors' names and the year of publication. For example: Smith and Jones (1999) developed…
(c) More than two authors: only the first author name plus “et al.” and the year of publication. For example: Smith et al. (1999) developed…
For a group of references in the main text, citations should be ordered chronologically. For example: The methods were used in many areas (Thomas, 1998; Smith et al., 1999; Jones and Smith, 2002).
Citations in the reference list should be ordered alphabetically first. If necessary, it should be further ordered chronologically.
For more than one reference from the same author(s) in the same year, “a”, “b”, etc can be used after the year of publication for differentiation in both the main text and the reference list.
In the reference list, the last name and the initials of the first and middle names (if available) for all the authors should be listed. Please refer to the following examples:
