Author Guidelines

The World Review of Research and Innovation (WRRI) welcomes original Social Science manuscripts from authors in every country. An editor first reads each submission to decide whether it suits the journal's aims and scope; suitable papers then go to double-anonymous peer review, and a decision follows on the basis of the reviewers' reports.

Before you submit, make sure you have permission to publish any figures, photographs, documents or data you include, that every co-author has agreed to be named, and that any research with human participants was approved by an appropriate ethics committee under the rules of the country where it took place.

Papers that do not reach a basic standard may be declined without review. A clear research question, a well-organised argument, an informative title and an abstract that stands on its own all help your paper move quickly through review. Please complete the checklist below before submitting.

Full requirements are on the Author Guidelines page. There is no submission fee; an APC of PKR 10,000 applies only after acceptance (see APC). Questions: editor@wrri.ibexinstitute.org.

Submission Preparation Checklist

  • DOIs or URLs are included for references where available, and references follow APA style (7th edition).
  • The text is single-spaced in a 12-point font, uses italics instead of underlining (except in URLs), and places figures and tables at the appropriate points in the text.
  • The manuscript follows the WRRI Author Guidelines, and the similarity index is below 20%.
