Welcome to the comprehensive guide designed to assist authors in submitting their scholarly work to Genesis Publishing Consortium Limited (GPCL) journals. Our commitment is to provide detailed instructions and insights to ensure a smooth, transparent, and rewarding publication experience for authors across a wide spectrum of disciplines. Before you begin the process of submitting your manuscript, you should ensure that you have completed the following:
GPCL journals span a diverse array of fields, encompassing science & technology, humanities, and interdisciplinary studies. Before submitting your manuscript, it is essential to meticulously review the aims and scope of the specific journal you are considering. A nuanced understanding of the journal’s focus areas ensures alignment with the editorial board’s interests and the readership’s expectations.
Manuscript formatting serves as the foundation for effective communication of research findings. Authors must meticulously adhere to the formatting guidelines provided by the journal. These guidelines typically encompass specifications regarding font size, margins, line spacing, and referencing style. Consistency in formatting not only enhances readability but also underscores the professionalism of the manuscript.
At the core of academic integrity lies the principle of originality. Authors are expected to submit manuscripts that constitute original contributions to knowledge and have not been previously published or are under consideration for publication elsewhere. GPCL journals maintain a steadfast policy against plagiarism in any manifestation. Authors bear the responsibility of ensuring that their work is devoid of borrowed content without appropriate attribution.
Authorship attribution should accurately reflect the substantive contributions of individuals to the research and writing process. All authors listed in the manuscript must have made significant intellectual contributions. It is imperative to acknowledge the contributions of individuals who have aided in the research process without meeting the criteria for authorship. Additionally, authors must transparently disclose any conflicts of interest or funding sources that could potentially influence the interpretation of their work.
Ethical considerations are paramount in maintaining the credibility and trustworthiness of scholarly research. Authors are expected to adhere to ethical guidelines throughout the research and publication process. This encompasses obtaining requisite permissions for any copyrighted material utilized, disclosing potential conflicts of interest, and ensuring the accuracy and integrity of the data and results presented.
The structure of a manuscript significantly influences its coherence and comprehensibility. While the specific structure may vary depending on the journal and the type of article, standard sections typically include Title, Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion, Acknowledgments, and References. Authors must ensure that each section serves its intended purpose in effectively conveying the research to the readership.
Figures and tables serve as invaluable aids in presenting data and facilitating understanding. Authors should meticulously ensure that all figures and tables are clear, appropriately labeled, and cited within the text. Figures should be of high quality, ensuring suitability for reproduction. Permission must be secured for any previously published figures or tables incorporated into the manuscript.
Clarity and precision in language are imperative for effective communication in academic writing. Manuscripts should be articulated in grammatically correct English, adhering to stylistic conventions appropriate for scholarly publications. Authors for whom English is not their native language are encouraged to solicit assistance from professional editing services to enhance the clarity and coherence of their writing.
