Author Guidelines

Journal of Community Empowerment for Health (JCOEMPH) endorses the use of an appropriate reporting guideline when writing any health research manuscript.

We encourage you to submit completed checklists for the relevant guidelines (and flow diagram if applicable) alongside your manuscript, indicating the manuscript page on which each checklist item is found. Editable checklists for reporting guidelines can be found here on the EQUATOR Network site [www.equator-network.org]. Using a checklist helps to ensure you have used a guideline correctly.

At minimum, your article should report the content addressed by each item of the identified checklist or state that the item was not considered in the study and, if relevant, the reason why not (for example, if you did not use blinding, your article should explain this). Meeting these basic.

Checklists are not simply an administrative hurdle. We ask you to complete a checklist because this helps you to check that you have included all of the important information in your article, and because it helps our editors and reviewer to complete the same check. If the checklist indicates an item you have not addressed in your manuscript, please either explain in the text why this information is irrelevant to your study or add the relevant information.
