- MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION PROCESS

General Rules for the Publication Process

  • Manuscripts are submitted through the journal's submission system at https://shydergisi.org. When submitting the manuscript, authors must send the title page, main text (including abstract Turkish & English, bibliography, tables and figures), appendices, and ethics committee approval as separate files.
  • Except for the title page uploaded to the system, there should be no names, or filenames that reflect the author's identity.
  • Articles submitted to JHNM should not have been published elsewhere or be under consideration for publication.
  • Manuscripts will be pre-screened by the Editorial Board in terms of the relevance of the article's topic, its contribution to health and nursing management theory and practice, and the article's compliance with the journal's writing rules. Manuscripts that do not meet JHNM's objectives and article writing rules will be sent back to the author without further review.
  • Articles deemed suitable by the Editorial Board will be sent to at least two reviewers for review. The revisions suggested by the reviewers, the editorial board, and the statistical editors are sent to the author(s), and the necessary revisions must be made by the author(s). Articles that pass peer review are submitted to Turnitin or iThenticate for plagiarism checking, and those deemed suitable are accepted for publication by editorial decision. Once the final version of the accepted article has been approved by the author(s), the process is completed by moving to the publication stage.
  • The scientific responsibility of the articles lies with the author(s), and the editorial board of JHNM cannot be held responsible for the scientific content.
  • Journal of Health and Nursing Management is an open access publication, and the entire content of the journal is made available free of charge to readers or institutions.
  • The title page should clearly identify all authors directly involved in writing the article and conducting the study. During the manuscript acceptance process, author names cannot be deleted, changed, or added, and the order of author names cannot be changed without the written permission of all authors.

In addition, the inclusion and/or exclusion criteria for selecting participants should be clearly stated. Data collection tool(s): : Each data collection tool used in the study should be introduced separately, and validity and reliability information should be clearly included. The title of each data collection tool should be written in italics at the beginning of the line, and then the introductory information about the tool should be given in an orderly fashion.

Data Collection: There should be an explanation of how the research data was collected and how this process was carried out.

Data Analysis: The statistical methods used to analyze the research data should be detailed so that the reader can evaluate the reported findings. Where appropriate, references to the study design and statistical methods should be provided. Statistical terms, abbreviations, and symbols should be defined, and the computer programs used should be noted.

Ethical aspects of the study: Depending on the type of study, information about the "Ethics Committee Approval Document" (date and number of approval, without specifying the name of the institution where it was obtained) should be provided, and the Ethics Committee Approval Document should also be uploaded to the journal system as a separate file.

Information about the "Institutional Approval and Informed Consent" obtained in the study should also be included in this section.

Study limitations: The limitations of the study should definitely be stated and these limitations should be discussed in the Discussion section and relevant suggestions should be provided.

Results

Results should be presented in a complete and systematic manner to answer the research questions, supported by statistical data. In the results section, the tables or figures should be placed before the necessary descriptions of the tables or figures. Narratives for tables and figures should not discuss all of the data. They should highlight data on important points and avoid interpretation of the results. Tables and figures in the results should be numbered according to the spelling rules and placed after the references.

When writing Cronbach's alpha, correlation coefficients (r), and p-values, "0" should be written before the period, p-values should be written with three values, factor loadings, alpha, and R-values should be written with two values (e.g., r = 0.34, p = 0.001). Be sure to use periods instead of commas between numbers in English texts.

Data that are not relevant to the results and interrupt the narrative may be included in the appendix.

For qualitative studies, results and discussion sections may be presented together.

Conclusion and recommendations

This section should highlight the significance of the main findings of the research and draw conclusions in relation to the purpose of the study. Ensure that findings are not repeated.

The contribution of the study results to practice should be explained and recommendations should be developed based on the findings. The contribution of the research findings to health and nursing management practice, the innovation to be brought to the field, and the academic literature related to the research findings should be indicated and implications for future studies should be drawn. Scientific literature should not be cited in the conclusion and recommendations section.

Meta-Analysis

Meta-analysis is a method that combines the results of several independent studies on a particular topic and statistically analyzes the research findings obtained to provide the highest level of evidence about the effectiveness of interventions related to health and nursing management. Meta-analysis studies can be conducted in both experimental and quantitative research. Meta-analysis articles to be submitted to JHNM should be prepared and uploaded to the system with titles similar to research articles.

Systematic Review

Like meta-analysis, systematic review is a type of secondary research study that provides the best evidence for related disciplines and especially for the field of practice. For a review article to be defined as systematic, the procedures for identifying and selecting the studies to be included in the review and for synthesizing the data from the studies should be followed. Systematic reviews to be submitted to JHNM should be prepared and uploaded to the system with titles similar to research articles.

Review articles

Review articles are considered to be articles in which experts who have accumulated knowledge in the field define, evaluate, and discuss the information on the topic, draw conclusions about the future, and provide guidance. Review articles submitted to JHNM should not exceed 3,000 words, consisting of Title Page, Title, Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Body, Conclusion and Recommendations, and References, which will be organized under subheadings determined by the author(s).

In review articles, authors may organize subheadings other than the Introduction and Conclusion sections according to the content of the subject matter. Titles should be presented systematically as specified in the General Rules section, without using a numbering system. The Introduction should clearly state the purpose of the article and the scientific ideas on which it is based. The research question should be related to the scientific literature on health and nursing management in the world and in Turkey. Subheadings in the text should be organized in a detailed and proper manner according to the purpose and scope of the article. References should be relevant and current.

In review articles, titles should be written as follows

Nursing Management Theses

Evaluation of Ph.D. Theses

Distinctions according to their methods

  • Quantitative Methods
  • Qualitative Methods

Differences according to their approach

Evaluation of Master's theses

Distinctions according to their methods

Case Report

Case reports should be on topics within the scope of the journal and should report original cases. These studies should consist of Title page, Abstracts and Keywords (Turkish and English), Introduction, Case Report, Discussion and Conclusion, and References. Case reports should not exceed 3,000 words. The place and importance of the topic in health and nursing management practices should be stated in the introduction section. All necessary details of the case should be discussed in a way that reveals the problem and makes the reader reflect on the issue, and the ethical aspect of the case presentation should be explained. Tables and explanatory information about the case should be included as appropriate. The Discussion section should fully answer the questions posed in the case, and the Conclusions and Recommendations section should draw conclusions from the case, especially those that will contribute to practice.

Letter to the Editor

Letters to the Editor are short, concise opinion pieces and can be written in response to articles already published in JHNM or in response to opinions expressed in the journal. These letters should not exceed 500 words and should be handled in accordance with ethical rules. The editor or author(s) of the article should respond to the letter by publishing it in the journal. These letters should not contain preliminary opinions that may require a new article to later prove their validity.

Tables

Tables effectively present research data, provide the desired level of detail, and generally shorten the length of the study. Each table should be on a separate page, numbered according to the order in which they appear in the article, and each should have a short title.

Vertical lines should not be used in tables. Horizontal lines may be used for separation.

Although tables are placed after references, it should be indicated where they are placed in the text of the article.

Table titles should appear above the table, and the title should be in sentence case and bold.

For example:

Table 1. Working conditions of nurses (N:200)

Table 3. Comparison of student satisfaction with personal variables (P:149)

Each column in the table should have a subheading. Statistical measures of variation, such as standard deviation or standard error, should be reported in the columns.

Explanations should be given in the footnotes, not in the title.

If data from other published or unpublished sources are used, permission should be obtained and the source should be cited as in the References section, with the page number under the table. References below the table should be in 10 pt font.

For example; Reference: Yıldız, S. (2010). Principles of Management. Akın Publications, Ankara, p.56.

Explanations below the tables in the results section should be left-aligned and refer only to the table. Explanations below the table should be in font size 10. Any non-standard abbreviations should be explained in the footnotes. Abbreviations, symbols, etc. used in the table should include explanations (source cited, scale name abbreviations, etc.). Explanations should be in alphabetical order. Information about a particular row or cell should be indicated by the letters and superscript (e.g., Associate Degreea). Probability Note: This section contains information about p-values and statistical tests, and p-values should be clearly stated in the table (e.g., p=0.062, p=0.004) and preceded by an asterisk (*) to indicate significance. Below the table, "*" and "**" should be used to indicate probability, and an explanation should be given as "*p<0.05, **, or "p<0.01". If the p-value is "0.000...", it should be reported as "p<0.001" both in the table and in the text. In addition, p-values should be reported in the text (discussion, etc.) according to the significance level specified in the probability notes, not as net p-values.

The mean and standard deviation shown in the table should be reported as "1.45 (0.04)", not "±" (1.45±0.04). This spelling rule also applies to in-text reports.

Figures

All figures should have titles, be numbered in the order in which they appear in the text, and be placed after the references indicating where they are used in the text. Figures should be professionally drawn, photographed, or submitted in photo quality.

Electronic files of figures should be sent in digital formats, such as JPEG or saved GIF, in a way that provides a high-resolution image. Authors should check the image quality of these files prior to submission and ensure that they have a resolution of at least 300 DPI. If photographs of people are used, these individuals should not be recognizable. If they are, written permission should be obtained (see the Ethics section).Permission must be obtained from the author who holds the publication rights if a previously published figure is to be used in the article. In addition, references should be cited below the figure or graph in the manuscript.

Figure/graphic captions should be provided below the figure/graphic and should be in sentence case and bold.

Example:

Figure 1. Systems approach to management.

References under figures and graphics should be 10 pt.

Figure 1. Authentic Leadership and Follower Relationships

Reference: Avolio et al, 2004; American Association of Critical Care Nurses, 2005; Gardner et al, 2005. Or

Reference: Yildiz, S. (2010). Principles of Management. Akın Publications, Ankara, p.56.

Abbreviations and Symbols

Non-standard abbreviations can be very confusing to the reader, so standard abbreviations should be used in manuscripts submitted to the journal. Abbreviations should not be used in the title or abstract. Unless there is a standard unit of measurement, abbreviations should be indicated by writing the full form clearly the first time it is used, and the abbreviation should be given in parentheses. Abbreviations should be used in accordance with international standards.

Acknowledgements

This section should appear at the end of the article, before the references. This section expresses gratitude to those who contributed to the study for reasons such as personal, technical, and material assistance.

- References

Authors are responsible for the accuracy of their references. JHNM expects authors to use primary sources as much as possible to make it easier for readers to access the relevant sources.

References should be listed in alphabetical order without numbering. They should be single-spaced at the end of the text and double-spaced between references.

American Psychological Association (APA) 6th edition citation rules will be used in articles submitted to JHNM. The author(s) are required to cite references in the text and in the references section according to APA style. All references cited in the manuscript must be included in the reference list.

References in the English manuscript should be written as shown in the examples below.

REFERENCES CITED IN TEXT

  • If more than one work of the same author or institution has been cited in the same date, it should be shown as (Koçel, 2009a, 2009b;) in the text, and the same author, which has been cited for more than one work in different years, should be shown in a way to be listed from the old date to the new date like (Koçel, 2008, 2014).

    For two publications of the same author with the same date; (Seren, 2005a, 2005b)
    For two publications of the same author with different dates; (Yozgat, 2008, 2014)
  • If more than one references is used in the text, the surname of the author shown in parentheses and the semicolon (;) must be placed between the sources after the date. The ranking of the authors should be written alphabetically according to their surnames.

    (Aykut, 2014; Göktepe, 2000; Tatar, 2019; Yavuz, 2010).

    (Huber et al., 2010; Rowland & Rowland, 2010; Seren & Harmancı, 2008).
  • If a direct quote from the source or a quote from a particular page is quoted, the quoted page is also written. Page number writing must be used only when a part of a work (such as a paragraph or chapter in a book) is referred to. If the source covers a single topic (such as a journal article), it is not necessary to indicate the page when referring.

    ... (Köker, 1998, p. 42).
    Indeed, one researcher commented that “technological innovations have saved or extended the lives of many patients” (Lumby, 2001, p. 44).

    Water is a necessary part of every person’s diet and of all the nutrients a body needs to function, it requires more water each day than any other nutrient (Whitney & Rolfes, 2011, p. 52).

    Research can be defined as a systematic method of creating new knowledge or a way to verify existing knowledge ( Simsek & Simsek, 2008, p. 36).

    The APA manual states that the year should be included in all citations that are in brackets. “Do include the year in all parenthetical citations” (APA, 2010, p. 174).
  • If the referance covers a single topic (such as a journal article), it is not necessary to indicate the page when referring to such a study.
  • If reference is made to the source in the form of a sentence in the text; "and" should be written between the two sources at the beginning of the text.

    Whitney and Rolfes (2011) state the body requires many nutrients to function but highlight that water is of greater importance than any other nutrient.

- DOUBLE-BLIND REVIEW AND EVALUATION PROCESS

Although the Editor-in-Chief has the final decision on the publication of all articles in the journal, the Editors make these decisions in accordance with the recommendations of the peer reviewers.

The double-blind review process improves the quality of scientific publications by providing a more objective review process in which it is not clear to whom the manuscript belongs. In this system, only the editors know every detail of the process. Authors do not know who the reviewers are, and reviewers do not know whose work they are reviewing. This prevents reviewers from being biased in their evaluation of the manuscript. In addition, since the author(s) do not know the reviewers, the possibility of the author(s) reaching and influencing the reviewers by any means is eliminated. In this context, the double-blind review process ensures unbiased review and promotes equality of opportunity. For this reason, a double-blind peer review process is applied to all articles submitted to JHNM. Each manuscript is evaluated by at least two reviewers who are experts in their field. The Editor may refer manuscripts to additional reviewers as needed and will make every effort to ensure that manuscripts are reviewed in a timely manner. The Editor-in-Chief has the final decision in the evaluation process of all articles.

Pre-review

The manuscripts submitted to JHNM are first reviewed by the Editorial Board according to the reviewers' evaluation criteria in terms of suitability for the purpose and scope of the journal, adherence to the writing rules, English and Turkish language proficiency, scientific adequacy, originality, formal requirements (abstract, introduction, method, discussion, and conclusion sections). The manuscripts deemed suitable by the Editorial Board are forwarded to the peer review stage. As a result of the preliminary review, articles that do not comply with the journal's publication rules and policies are returned to the corresponding author.

Peer Review Process

At least two reviewers, who are experts in the field and have recent studies in the subject area related to the content of the manuscript, are identified by the editors and assigned by the system. In order to expedite the review process, it is generally attempted to assign three reviewers, and the process is completed after two reviewers have responded. By completing the evaluation form provided by the system, the reviewers evaluate the study and complete the reporting phase.

Reviewers Reports

The reviewers will evaluate the manuscript for scientific merit, purpose, methods, discussion, results, and contribution to the literature according to the evaluation form. The manuscript may be accepted as is, requested for revisions, or rejected. In the case of requested revisions, the reviewers' suggestions will be sent to the authors, and the author(s) are expected to revise their manuscript as requested.

According to the "Revision" request, the authors must complete the revisions suggested by the reviewers or editors as soon as possible. The results of the revisions received from the authors will be reviewed by the reviewers and the final decision will be submitted to the Editorial Board. The reviewers may accept the study by reviewing the requested revisions, or they may request further revisions if necessary. The peer review process will continue until all requests regarding the article have been approved by the reviewers. In case of disagreement between the appointed reviewers, the final decision will be made by the Editor in accordance with the opinion of the third reviewer.

Statistics review

Articles deemed suitable by the reviewers are sent to the statistics editor, if necessary. Manuscripts approved by the Statistics Editor are accepted and proceed to the next stage.

- ACCEPTANCE FOR PUBLICATION

Accepted manuscripts are included in the issue to be published, taking into account the date of acceptance, the subject area, and the distribution of research types.

In this process, rejected manuscripts are returned to the author without undergoing a plagiarism check. Acceptance of manuscripts is finalized according to the results of the statistical review and plagiarism check reports.

Although the acceptance process for articles in JHNM is expected to be completed within approximately six months, this period may vary and may be extended depending on the revisions requested by the reviewers and editors and the time required by the authors to submit the final version of the manuscripts.

Post-acceptance process

For manuscripts in the final decision stage of acceptance to the Journal of Health and Nursing Management, plagiarism checks, citation checks, and language editing are performed by a professional company.

The Association of Nurse Managers, the publisher of the Journal of Health and Nursing Management, does not charge an article processing fee or a subscription fee. However, financial obligations for language editing of articles in the acceptance process after peer review are the responsibility of the authors.

Language Editing

The manuscripts submitted to JHNM should have a simple and clear language and they should follow the grammar and spelling rules (Turkish and English), and the related scientific literature. The manuscripts should be written in plain language without foreign words. Language editing of accepted articles will be performed by a professional company. Authors are responsible for financial obligations related to language editing.

Ahead of Print

Since JHNM is committed to the dissemination of current and original knowledge, studies that have passed the peer-review process and completed the post-acceptance process are published electronically in ahead of print. Studies published in ahead of print will be published in the volume and issue deemed appropriate by the Editorial Board, indicating the number of pages, and will then be removed from ahead of print. Studies published ahead of print may not be the final version published in the regular issue. Some minor revisions may be made to the final version of the manuscript.
