Manuscript Types

EBGC accepts the following manuscript types. All types go through the same double-blind peer review process and must fall within the journal's Focus and Scope.

  • Original research and experimental studies must state clear hypotheses or a research focus, justify the methods, and discuss threats to validity. Experimental instruments and debriefing materials should be provided as supplementary files.
  • Systematic literature reviews must include a PRISMA flow diagram, the databases searched (e.g., Scopus, Web of Science), the period covered, search strings, and quality assessment of included studies. Narrative reviews without a systematic protocol are not accepted.
  • Bibliometric reviews must go beyond descriptive counts and offer conceptual synthesis and future research directions.
  • Case studies must explain case selection, data sources, triangulation, and the theoretical lens used.
