The Social Sciences Research and Academic Journal has a policy to improve its citation format, both for in-text citations and the list of references at the end of articles. Authors are now required to follow the language format of the original source (e.g., if the original source is in Thai, the citation list should be in Thai; if the original source is in English, the citation list should be in English). This is to ensure accurate citations, adherence to academic standards, and effective source verification.
These revised citation formatting guidelines will apply to articles published in the Social Sciences Research and Academic Journal, Volume 23, Issue 1 (January – April 2028) onwards.
Authors wishing to submit articles for consideration for publication in the journal are kindly requested to prepare their manuscripts according to the new citation format for articles submitted from July 1, 2027 onwards, in order to ensure that the review and publication process adheres to the journal's established guidelines and standards.
