Reference Management

Manuscripts submitted to Almana: Jurnal Manajemen dan Bisnis must use reference management software, such as Mendeley, to ensure accurate and consistent citations. All in-text citations and reference entries must follow the American Psychological Association (APA) style.

At least 80% of the references must consist of peer-reviewed journal articles published within the last five years, calculated from the year of manuscript submission. These references should primarily present original research directly relevant to the study. The remaining references, comprising no more than 20%, may include scholarly books, foundational works, conference proceedings, research reports, and other authoritative sources. Older sources may be included within this proportion when essential to the study’s theoretical or methodological foundation.

Every source cited in the text must appear in the reference list, and every reference listed must be cited in the manuscript. References must be arranged alphabetically by the first author’s surname and include complete and accurate bibliographic information. DOI links or stable URLs should be provided where available.
