Author Guidelines

Authors are invited to make a submission to this journal. All submissions will be assessed by an editor to determine whether they meet the aims and scope of this journal. Those considered to be a good fit will be sent for peer review before determining whether they will be accepted or rejected.

Before making a submission, authors are responsible for obtaining permission to publish any material included with the submission, such as photos, documents and datasets. All authors identified on the submission must consent to be identified as an author. Where appropriate, research should be approved by an appropriate ethics committee in accordance with the legal requirements of the study's country.

An editor may desk reject a submission if it does not meet minimum standards of quality. Before submitting, please ensure that the study design and research argument are structured and articulated properly. The title should be concise and the abstract should be able to stand on its own. This will increase the likelihood of reviewers agreeing to review the paper. When you're satisfied that your submission meets this standard, please follow the checklist below to prepare your submission.

Standard Operating Procedure:

  1. Declaration of Originality & Author Contributions

All manuscripts must be original research and must not be under consideration by other journals. To ensure transparency, authors must include a "Author Contributions" section at the end of the manuscript (before References).

You must specify the exact contribution of each author using the following structure:

  • Study Concept and Design: [Author Names]
  • Database/Data Acquisition: [Author Names]
  • Methodology & Modelling: [Author Names]
  • Analysis and Interpretation: [Author Names]
  • Manuscript Preparation (Writing & Editing): [Author Names]

Example Declaration:

"A.B. and C.D. designed the research; E.F. collected the database; A.B. performed the statistical analysis; C.D. wrote the original draft. All authors reviewed and approved the final manuscript."

  1. Policy on Artificial Intelligence (AI) Usage

DMST strictly regulates the use of AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Grammarly, Large Language Models). Authors must declare if AI was used in any part of the research design, methodology, analysis, or writing.

  • Allowed: AI for basic language polishing and grammar correction.
  • Not Allowed: AI for generating scientific conclusions, fabricating data, or conducting the primary literature review without human verification.
  • Required Statement: If AI tools were used, authors must include a "Declaration of Generative AI and AI-Assisted Technologies" statement:

"During the preparation of this work, the author(s) used [Name of Tool/Service] in order to [Reason]. After using this tool/service, the author(s) reviewed and edited the content as needed and take(s) full responsibility for the content of the publication."

  1. Plagiarism & Similarity Policy (Strict 15% Threshold)

All submissions will undergo a similarity check using Turnitin or equivalent software.

  • Maximum Allowed Similarity: < 15% (excluding references, authors own work and standard bibliography).
  • Immediate Return: Manuscripts exceeding 15% similarity will be returned to the author immediately without peer review for improvement and resubmission.
  • Expedited Processing: Authors are strongly encouraged to upload their own Turnitin Similarity Report as a supplementary file during submission. This will speed up the initial screening phase.
