References Management
Citation Style
RUBINSTEIN uses the APA citation style for manuscript writing, in-text citations, and reference lists. Authors are required to ensure that all sources cited in the manuscript are written consistently according to APA style guidelines.
APA Citation Style
Authors must use APA citation style for all in-text citations and references. Every source cited in the manuscript must appear in the reference list, and every reference listed must be cited in the manuscript.
Reference Management Tool
Authors are encouraged to use Mendeley in Microsoft Word to manage citations and references in their manuscripts. The use of a reference management tool helps maintain citation accuracy, reference consistency, and compliance with the journal’s required citation style.
Citation Consistency
Before submission, authors should carefully check the accuracy of author names, publication years, article titles, journal names, volume, issue, page numbers, and DOI links. Proper citation and reference formatting are important parts of manuscript quality and academic integrity.
Authors are responsible for ensuring that the citation format, reference list, and bibliographic information in the manuscript follow the APA citation style consistently.
Note: The use of APA style and Mendeley is intended to improve citation accuracy, reference consistency, and the academic quality of manuscripts submitted to RUBINSTEIN.
