It is expected that the rationale or purpose of the survey (gap analysis), the objective in general and specific, and the hypothesis (if any) should be expressed clearly. Present a clear "state of the art" of the subject, discussing literature and its theoretical concepts. A concise general background may be included in the article. Present at least 5 (five) recent related works to support the novelty of the research.Â
- Methodology provides sufficient details to allow the work to be reproduced by an independent researcher. Methods that are already published should be summarized and indicated by a reference. If quoting directly from a previously published method, use quotation marks and also cite the source. Any modifications to existing methods should also be described. Indicate the participants observed, including demographic data, number of respondents, the rationale of respondents selection, etc. Describe the design of the experiment, such as the experiment procedures, surveys, interviews, observation characteristics, etc. Write the complete research procedure.
