These instructions give you guidelines for preparing papers for Jurnal Aplikasi Statistika & Komputasi Statistik which is published by Politeknik Statistika STIS. Manuscripts are submitted in MS Word format to the journal website https://jurnal.stis.ac.id/ accompanied by filling out the registration on the new submission menu. The manuscript format refers to the following Manuscript Writing Instructions:

The manuscript was created using Microsoft Office Word only and should be formatted for direct printing. As indicated in the template, manuscript should be prepared in single column format that suitable for direct printing onto paper with A4 paper size (21 x 29.7 cm). The paragraphs continue from here and are only separated by headings, subheadings, images and formula. The section headings are arranged by numbers, bold and 14 pt. All parts of the manuscript are typed in Times New Roman font, size 11, line spacing exactly at 12 pt, with 0.2 line spacing for the next heading and margins of 3 cm of left and 2 cm for top, bottom, and right, the length of header from the top is 1.5 cm and the length of footer from the bottom is 1 cm. For the main text, use justify alignment and special indent for the first line in 0.76 cm. For the purpose of editing the manuscript, all parts of the manuscript (including tables, figures and mathematical equations) are made in a format that can be edited by the editor. The writing style for the Jurnal Aplikasi Statistika & Komputasi Statistik is written in English with a narrative style. Tracing is kept simple and as far as possible avoiding multilevel chronology. The manuscript should be written in English with a minimum of 15 pages.

The manuscript writing style for the Jurnal Aplikasi Statistika & Komputasi Statistik is written in English in a narrative style. The roasting is made simple and as far as possible, multi-stage roasting is avoided. Tables and figures must include sources if they are secondary data. Tables, figures and mathematical equations are numbered sequentially according to their appearance. All quotations and references in the manuscript must be listed in the bibliography, and conversely the reading sources listed in the bibliography must be in the manuscript. Source format: Author's name and year. The table number and title are placed at the top of the table and in bold, while the figure number and title are placed at the bottom of the image and in bold.

The manuscript section contains:

Title. The title types with capitalize first letter of each word, Times New Romans (TNR), Size 17 pt, exactly spacing at 20 pt, 12 pt spacing for next heading, and left allignment.

Author Data. Contains the full names of all authors without titles, department, institution of origin, and email address.

Abstract. The content of abstract should include introduction/main objective, background problems, novelty, research methods, and finding/results. Abstract written in English, with a maximum length of 200 words. Use 10 pt Times New Roman font with justified alignment, single spacing, and 1 pt spacing for the next heading.

Keywords. Contains words or phrases (5 - 10 words) that are often used in manuscripts and are considered to represent and/or relate to the topic discussed, separated by semicolons (;) Capitalize first letter of each word, times new roman, use 10 pt.

  1. Introduction. Contains background, relevant previous studies, problems or hypotheses to be tested in the research, scope of research, and objectives of the research. Introduction coverage: What is the purpose of the study? Why are you conducting the study? The main section of the article should start with an introductory section, which provides more details about the paper’s purpose, motivation, research methods and findings. The introduction should be relatively nontechnical, yet clear enough for an informed reader to understand the manuscript’s contribution. The Introduction is not an extended version of the abstract; never use the same sentences in both sections. The “introduction” in the manuscript is important to demonstrate the motives of the research. It analyzes the empirical, theoretical and methodological issues in order to contribute to the extant literature. This introduction will be linked with the following parts, most noticeably the literature review. Explaining the problem’s formulation should cover the following points: (1) Problem recognition and its significance; (2) clear identification of the problem and the appropriate research questions; (3) coverage of problem’s complexity; (4) a clear research gap, and (5) well-defined objectives.
  2. Material and Methods consists of:
    • Data Source. This section contains the way the research was conducted and a description of the materials, equipment, and procedures used in conducting the analysis or research. The conceptual basis of the paper, the theoretical reasons why the research question in the article is asked, and quotations from previous research that are relevant to complete the justification of the research framework are placed at the end of the introduction.
    • Analysis Method. This section contains sufficient theoretical and technical information for readers to be able to reproduce the research well, including a description of the type and source of data as well as the variables used. In the case of the need to verify results, editors and reviewers have the right to request the raw data used by the author.
  1. Results and Discussion. Write down the results obtained based on the method used along with an analysis of the variables. Can be presented in the form of tables, pictures, hypothesis testing results accompanied by analytical descriptions that raise important points based on theoretical conception.
  2. Conclusions. This section contains conclusions from the results and their academic implications, and suggestions that can be given based on the findings from the discussion. This section also contains research limitations and the possibility of further research that can be carried out by using/developing variables, analytical methods or covering other research areas.

Ethics approval. The Ethical approval statement should be provided including the consent. If not appropriate, authors should state: “Not required.”

Acknowledgments. This section contains a form of thanks to individuals or institutions who have provided assistance in carrying out research, preparing the article, providing language help, writing assistance or proof reading the article and others.

Competing interests. A competing interest statement should be provided, even if the authors have no competing interests to declare. If no conflict exists, authors should state: “All the authors declare that there are no conflicts of interest.”

Funding. List funding sources in this standard way to facilitate compliance to funder's requirements. It is not necessary to include detailed descriptions on the program or type of grants and awards. When funding is from a block grant or other resources available to a university, college, or other research institution, submit the name of the institute or organization that provided the funding. If no funding has been provided for the research, please include the following sentence: “This study received no external funding.”

Underlying data. This can be written as: “Derived data supporting the findings of this study are available from the corresponding author on request.

Reference. Please consider using Mendeley, EndNote, or Zotero citation management software with the following Jurnal Aplikasi Statistika & Komputasi Statistik template for ensuring the citation to be well-managed. References are arranged in alphabetical order with IEEE Citation Style provisions, indicate references with [1] or [2] or [3] in the text, as follows:
