Update to Reference Style: Adoption of APA 7th Edition

The Journal of Next-Generation Research 5.0 (JNGR 5.0) announces an update to its reference formatting policy.

 

Effective January 28, 2026, all newly published articles are required to follow the APA referencing style (7th edition).

 

Articles published prior to this date remain formatted according to the Vancouver referencing style. This transition does not affect the academic integrity, citation validity, or indexing of previously published articles.

 

This update reflects the journal’s ongoing commitment to aligning its editorial practices with internationally recognized standards in academic publishing.
