Author Guidelines

Publication Language

The publication language of the International Journal of Language, Education and Society is English. Manuscripts must be submitted in clear and academically appropriate English. Authors are responsible for the linguistic accuracy, clarity, and consistency of their manuscripts.

Authors may use either British or American English, but the selected variety must be used consistently throughout the manuscript.

Reference and Formatting Style

Manuscripts must follow the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association, Seventh Edition (APA 7). In-text citations, references, tables, figures, heading levels, and statistical reporting should be prepared according to APA 7 as far as applicable.

Required Files

• Blinded manuscript file prepared for anonymous review
• Separate title page with author names, affiliations, ORCID identifiers, and corresponding author email
• Ethics approval, informed consent, conflict of interest, funding, data availability, and AI use statements where applicable
• Supplementary files such as tables, figures, appendices, instruments, or datasets where applicable

Editorial Screening and Review

Every submission first undergoes editorial screening for scope, completeness, presentation quality, and ethical compliance. Manuscripts that pass the initial editorial assessment are evaluated through blind external peer review by three independent reviewers.

Reviewers provide independent scholarly evaluations and recommendations. The final decision regarding a manuscript remains an editorial responsibility.
