BEFORE YOU BEGIN

All authors must disclose any financial and personal relationships that could inappropriately influence their work. Please declare potential conflicts of interest to our Editorial Team member in "Comments for Editor" form during paper submission through OJS. You don't need to include colleagues from similar organizational on the list, by default they are included in potential conflicts of interest lists.

Submission declaration and verification

The submission has not been previously published or is under consideration of another journal (except in the form of an abstract or as part of a published lecture or academic thesis or as an electronic preprint). Please read more about in "Multiple, Redundant, or Concurrent Publication" from our Publication Ethics pages. 

Changes to authorship

The list of authors listed at the time of submission is final and must not be changed. Authors are expected to consider carefully the order of authors because any addition, deletion or rearrangement of authors' names should be made only before the manuscript has been accepted and only if approved by the Journal Editor. Written confirmation (e-mail, letter) from all authors is needed to make such changes, including confirmation from the author names being added or removed. Only in exceptional circumstances will the Editor consider the addition, deletion or rearrangement of authors.

Submission

We use Open Journal System (OJS) fully. The manuscript acceptance will be done by uploading to the OJS system via https://tljes.org/index.php/tljes/login
