ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT

Keywords: The abstract must be short, interesting, simple, and easy to understand without
Write 3-6 keywords reading the entire article (between 200 and 250 words long). Therefore, avoid
jargon, abbreviations, and references. In writing abstracts, the author must be
accurate, use the right words, and convey the meaning of the study. A good
abstract contains the problem statement and purpose, how the research is carried
out (the method), the results, and concludes with a brief statement of conclusions.
In the abstract keywords are also always included. Keywords are used to index an
article and are the label of an article. The abstract does not contain table and
figure numbers, mathematical formulas, or references. To make things easier, this
template can be used in writing your manuscript.
