Guidelines for submission

1. Eligibility for Submission

Submission is limited to regular members of this society who have paid the designated membership fee. If there are multiple authors, at least one of them must hold regular membership. Manuscripts should be written in Korean or English and should not have been published in other journals or publications. However, papers presented at society events will not be excluded from review if they have not been published in other academic journals.

2. Submission Procedure

• 1. Prospective authors must submit their manuscripts online through the journal's website.
• 2. When submitting, applicants should indicate whether it is a regular paper or a planned paper (a paper solicited by the society).
• 3. After online submission, authors can orally request an "expedited review" from the secretariat. The submission deadline for expedited review papers is determined based on the desired publication issue, as indicated in the table below. However, for expedited review papers, only the decisions of "acceptance," "acceptance after minor revisions," and "rejection" will be made, and the decision of "reconsideration in the next issue after revisions" will not be given.

3. Thesis, Plagiarism

• 1. The manuscript based on a thesis should disclose this fact in a footnote on the first page of the manuscript.
• 2. If the submitted manuscript has already been published in another form, the applicant must submit a separate statement to the editorial board along with the manuscript, explaining the bibliographic details of the previously published paper and clarifying that the submitted manuscript is substantially different from the prior publication.

Guidelines for Manuscript

Authors should keep the following points in mind while preparing the manuscript:

• 1. All papers should be written using a Korean word processor or MS Word.
• 2. The total length of the manuscript should not exceed 180 pages of A4 paper (excluding tables and figures). For English papers, the total length should not exceed 9,000 words (excluding tables and figures).
• 3.The first page of the published paper should include the title, authors' names, affiliations, positions, and contact information (postal address or email). The submission date and completion date of the review should also be included. In the case of multiple authors, the first author (or corresponding author) should be indicated with a superscript after the name. For Korean papers, the English title and English names should be provided in parentheses below the Korean title. For English papers, only the English title and names should be provided.
• 4.Sections should be organized as chapters, sections, subsections, and sub-subsections. Chapters should be numbered as 'Ⅰ., Ⅱ., Ⅲ.,...' and sections as '1., 2., 3.,...' with titles. Subsections should be numbered as '1), 2), 3.),...' and also include titles. In English papers, chapter titles (e.g., 'Ⅰ., Ⅱ., Ⅲ.,...') should be written in all capital letters, while section and subsection titles should only have the first letter capitalized. Specific sections like ABSTRACT, REFERENCES, APPENDIX, etc., should be written in all capital letters.
• 5.In the case of equations, variables should be written in italics, and equation numbering should be done without considering chapter or section divisions, aligning them to the right within parentheses and using a consecutive numbering scheme (except for symbols like log, ln, max, which should be written in roman font). To avoid confusion, expressions like a/b+c should be clearly expressed as (a/b)+c or a/(b+c).
• 6.In-text citations and references to cited literature should be indicated within parentheses in the text, including the author's name, publication year, and page number(s). The same format should be used when citing or referencing the same literature repeatedly. For English papers, it is customary to use the original English citations without translating them into Korean.

  • 3)The sources for tables and figures are cited at the bottom as follows: Ex) 출처: 이상우 (2009, p. 103)
