Guidelines
IJIT is mainly published in English, Arabic and Malay. Papers in Malay and Arabic should have abstracts and keywords in English. All the references have been used in the article should be in the Roman script, that is, even if the writer has cited a study in Arabic, he should write the reference in Roman script and not in Arabic script. Writers are asked to submit their papers in Microsoft Word document with tables and figures embedded in the text itself.

Papers submitted for consideration of publication in IJIT must not be under consideration for publication elsewhere either in electronic or printed form. These papers should also have not been published previously. The corresponding author should declare regarding this issue when submitting the paper to the Editor-in Chief. Submissions are accepted electronically only.

The Editor-in-Chief may decline to consider a manuscript for several reasons, including inadequate evidence that the method is substantially new and promising, poor preparation, an insufficiently clear and detailed presentation, and a lack of adherence to the journal’s guidelines for manuscript preparation. The Editor-in-Chief reserves the right to make the final decision when conflicts of editorial opinion arise. Once a manuscript has been accepted for consideration, it will be assigned to the Editorial Board for distribution to reviewers. Articles will be reviewed blindly by two persons with expertise in the area. The final decision regarding acceptance of the paper remains with the editorial board of the IJIT.

As much as possible typescript should conform to the style set forth in the Publications Manual of the American Psychological Association (APA).

Submissions should include the following information:

Author: In form: Full name of author(s) with institution and email address.

Title: Title case only. Papers in Malay or Arabic should also have a title in English.

Abstract: Up to 200 words. Provision of abstract is essential. Papers in Malay or Arabic should also have an abstract in English. The abstract should also provide five keywords.

Biodata: Approximately 50 words in length.

10 General Rules of Reference Writing

2.All references cited in the text must appear in the Reference list.  We do not accept Bibliography.
