The Introduction must be formatted with “Normal” style. It consists in the application of the font Times (Mac), or Times New Roman (Windows), 12 pt., black, with the line spacing (leading) +1.5 lines and spaced one additional line at the end of the paragraph. Additional paragraphs must not be included to break, or “wrap” the text.Sections and ContentsIn order to maintain the coherence of the usual publications, the papers must include the following sections: Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Conclusion and References. Authors are free to include any number, title and contents on each section between the Introduction and the Conclusion. We recommend using a familiar structure to this kind of work, such as (for example): Introduction; Theoretical Background; Literature Review; Research Methodology; Results; and Conclusion.The Sections’ content must be formatted with “Normal” style. It consists in the application of the font Times (Mac), or Times New Roman (Windows), 12 pt., black, with the line spacing (leading) +1.5 lines and spaced one additional line at the end of the paragraph. Additional paragraphs must not be included to break, or “wrap” the text.IntroductionThe Introduction section must present a panoramic view of theme in research ADDIN CSL_CITATION { "citationItems" : [ { "id" : "ITEM-1", "itemData" : { "ISBN" : "978-972-788-639-5", "author" : [ { "dropping-particle" : "", "family" : "Correia", "given" : "Ana Maria Ramalho", "non-dropping-particle" : "", "parse-names" : false, "suffix" : "" }, { "dropping-particle" : "", "family" : "Mesquita", "given" : "Anabela", "non-dropping-particle" : "", "parse-names" : false, "suffix" : "" } ], "id" : "ITEM-1", "issued" : { "date-parts" : [ [ "2013" ] ] }, "publisher" : "Vida Econ\u00f3mica", "publisher-place" : "Porto", "title" : "Mestrados e Doutoramentos.", "type" : "book" }, "locator" : "13", "uris" : [ "" ] } ], "mendeley" : { "formattedCitation" : "(Correia & Mesquita, 2013, p. 13)", "plainTextFormattedCitation" : "(Correia & Mesquita, 2013, p. 13)", "previouslyFormattedCitation" : "(Correia & Mesquita, 2013, p. 13)" }, "properties" : { "noteIndex" : 0 }, "schema" : "" }(Correia & Mesquita, 2013, p. 13), but in addition, it should provide a summarized conceptual framework. It may include: a rationalization of the importance of the research topic, the contribution to the thematic line or discipline addressed; a brief discussion of the methodology (methods, techniques and instruments) without going into much detail; the proposition, research questions, or hypothesis. It should include a brief summary of the organization of the structure of the chapters, or sections of the paper.Literature reviewIn the event of producing a more conceptual heavy or theoretical research, a literature review section should be present. In this section, authors should include the reference to the main seminal authors, concepts or works needed to comprehend the problem in its different possible approaches. Usually this section is also known as State of the Art, Conceptual Framework or Theoretical Background, depending on the style and contents.Research MethodologyThe methodology or project development section must present the instruments, techniques, or phases of development of the empirical work or data-gathering phases done (or planned). Explain the relevance of the adopted methods in spite of other possible approaches. And present a critical analysis of the limitations encountered.Results or Data AnalysisPresent the main results or data gathered from the operationalization of the methodology. Interpret, or analyze them critically (applying the conceptual framework). Explain how these results help to explain the problem, or how these contribute to fulfil the research objectives.ConclusionThe Conclusion section has the purpose to present the discussion of the paper as a whole, synthesizing the main results and findings according to the original goals set and defined in the introduction. It should highlight their importance, their implications, applications and limitations, and how these relate to the conceptual framework presented. It should concentrate on presenting the final conclusions, emphasizing the most relevant contributions of the paper, their scope within the thematic area, as well as to present the limitations encountered, recommendations for future, or further development. The Conclusion should be brief, concise and written in a convincing and affirmative tone.Language conventionsAll the texts should be in written in English (International or US English), as a primary language, in order to pursue a proper internationalization policy of research. Following the mandatory English version, authors may provide a Title and an Abstract in their native language(s).When citing original sources (e.g. direct speech from interviews, written records, or other), authors should present them translated within the main body of text. And include the original language versions and additional explanations in the footnotes. We encourage the record and the use of local, regional and national expressions and idioms, but we prioritize the proper international communication first.Text Styles and FormattingIn order to simplify the process of editing and revision of the final proceedings, authors should stick to the available paper structure and text formatting (styles and appearance). We also recommend maintaining the page numbers in order to facilitate the revision process. In this section we describe the main functions and attributes of the style available in this template. The final part of this section presents a table summarizing all of them ( REF _Ref314143950 \h Summary of formatting and text styles).Title, Headings 1, 2 and 3 (Paper Structure and Sections)Authors must use the template’s available styles (Headings 1, 2 and 3) to structure the document.“Title” style is reserved for the paper title. It consists in the application of the font Times (Mac), or Times New Roman (Windows), 12 pt., black, with the line spacing (leading) +1.5 lines and spaced one additional line at the end of the paragraph. Authors may include the title in the original native language and should apply an Italic character style to it, resulting in an additional paragraph with the style “Title + italic”.“Heading 1” style allows to structure the logical sections of chapters of each paper, such as the Introduction, the Theoretical Background, Literature Review or Framework, Methodology, Results, Findings and Discussion, Conclusion or the References. It consists in the application of the font Times (Mac), or Times New Roman (Windows), 12 pt., black, with the line spacing (leading) +1.5 lines and spaced one additional line at the end of the paragraph. “Heading 2” and “Heading 3” styles allow to split each chapter into section units of greater detail and hierarchy. It consists in the application of the font Times (Mac), or Times New Roman (Windows), Bold 12 pt., black, with the line spacing (leading) +1.5 lines and spaced one additional line at the end of the paragraph. Headings 4, 5, 6… (abstract, keywords, authors’ names)“Heading 4” “5” and “6” styles allow to identify the papers’ abstract title, keywords title and authors names in order to automatically create the necessary indexes, and to avoid errors from manual editing. It consists in the application of the font Times (Mac), or Times New Roman (Windows), Bold 12 pt., black, with the line spacing (leading) +1.5 lines and spaced one additional line at the end of the paragraph. Normal (Body text)The main body of each section contents must be formatted with “Normal” style. It consists in the application of the font Times (Mac), or Times New Roman (Windows), 12 pt., black, with the line spacing (leading) +1.5 lines and spaced one additional line at the end of the paragraph. Additional paragraphs must not be included to break, or “wrap” the text.Images and TablesImages (Figures) and GraphicsImages and graphics must be included in the document and present a minimum resolution for printing and reading. For example, 300 DPI at a 100% scale, or 72 DPI at a 25% scale in line with text (Figure 1). Authors must reference the figures appropriately in the body of the text and present them after the reference. Figures and graphics must include descriptive captions. When retrieved, or adapted from another source, authors must include the reference to the original source. Figure SEQ Figura \* ARABIC 1 – Figures and Graphics formatting, resolution and scaling options. TablesTables should also have a simple style consistent with the rest of the document, according to the APA Style recommendations (Figure 2). Figure SEQ Figura \* ARABIC 2 – Table formatting options, according to APA (source: APA, 2010, p. 129)Its formatting consists on the inclusion of the first line as a table header, in bold, without background color. With a top and bottom line of ? pt., in solid black stroke.Tables can be quickly formatted with the style “Light Shading”, and by deactivating the option “Banded Rows”, available in the Ribbon’s table formatting options (Figure 3). Figure SEQ Figura \* ARABIC 3 – "Light Shading" table formatting options Tables and their contents must be formatted with the style “Normal” with the font size of 8 pt.. Table formatting must have all internal spacing set to 0,1 cm (0,5’’) (Figure 4). Figure SEQ Figura \* ARABIC 4 – Table spacing formatting options available in: Table Properties: OptionsCaptions and information (numbering and footnotes)The captions of images (figures), graphics and tables, as well as the remaining information elements, such as footers and page numbering must have a similar formatting. It consists in the application of the appropriate style “Caption”, “Footnote” and “Page Number”.Captions use Times New Roman, Bold, 8 pt., black, with the spacing between rows +1.5 lines. They use a spacing of one line before and at the end of paragraphs.Captions of figures must appear after the image. Captions (or titles) of tables must appear before the table.Footers, numbering and other elements of metadata using Times (Mac) or Times New Roman (Windows), normal, 8 pt., black, with the spacing between rows +1.5 lines, with no additional paragraph spacing.Bullet lists and enumerationsLists must be formatted with the MS Word default options, and according to the APA Style.Simple enumerations must be written in line with the main text, following a colon, headed by an alphabetic bullet. Example: a) first item; b) second item; and c) third and final item. Authors should use minuscule letters to enumerate each item after the colon. And each item must be separated by a semicolon.In more comprehensive lists (e.g. in lists that require larger descriptions for each item), in which it is necessary to separate the main block of text, authors should create an indented default bulleted vertical list. Non-sequential (unordered) lists:List Item – description or additional details to add for each item;List Item – description or additional details to add for each item;Etc.Sequential (ordered) lists:First list item – description or additional details to add for each item;Second list item – description or additional details to add for each item;Third list item – description or additional details to add for each item;Etc.Citations and block quotationsCitations or quotations must be done using the author-date format, according to the 6th edition of the APA style (APA, 2010). After the quoted text (within quotation marks), the following elements must be presented in order: 1) authors’ last name, followed by a comma; and 2) year of publication of the document; and, if it is a direct quote, 3) the page number(s). This information must be included within curved parenthesis ADDIN CSL_CITATION { "citationItems" : [ { "id" : "ITEM-1", "itemData" : { "URL" : "", "accessed" : { "date-parts" : [ [ "2016", "1", "8" ] ] }, "author" : [ { "dropping-particle" : "", "family" : "SBIDM - UA", "given" : "", "non-dropping-particle" : "", "parse-names" : false, "suffix" : "" } ], "id" : "ITEM-1", "issued" : { "date-parts" : [ [ "2016" ] ] }, "title" : "Refer\u00eancias bibliogr\u00e1ficas - normas e estilos", "type" : "webpage" }, "locator" : "3", "uris" : [ "" ] } ], "mendeley" : { "formattedCitation" : "(SBIDM - UA, 2016, p. 3)", "plainTextFormattedCitation" : "(SBIDM - UA, 2016, p. 3)", "previouslyFormattedCitation" : "(SBIDM - UA, 2016, p. 3)" }, "properties" : { "noteIndex" : 0 }, "schema" : "" }(SBIDM - UA, 2016, p. 3).Quotations must be formatted in the style of the text in which they are included: “Normal” if within the body of the text; “Caption” if included within captions of figures, graphics or tables, as well as other textual mon formats of direct (in-line) quotations are short (under 40 words) and long (over 40 words). A direct long quotation is defined by the literal use of more than forty words ADDIN CSL_CITATION { "citationItems" : [ { "id" : "ITEM-1", "itemData" : { "URL" : "", "accessed" : { "date-parts" : [ [ "2016", "1", "8" ] ] }, "author" : [ { "dropping-particle" : "", "family" : "SBIDM - UA", "given" : "", "non-dropping-particle" : "", "parse-names" : false, "suffix" : "" } ], "id" : "ITEM-1", "issued" : { "date-parts" : [ [ "2016" ] ] }, "title" : "Refer\u00eancias bibliogr\u00e1ficas - normas e estilos", "type" : "webpage" }, "locator" : "7", "uris" : [ "" ] } ], "mendeley" : { "formattedCitation" : "(SBIDM - UA, 2016, p. 7)", "plainTextFormattedCitation" : "(SBIDM - UA, 2016, p. 7)", "previouslyFormattedCitation" : "(SBIDM - UA, 2016, p. 7)" }, "properties" : { "noteIndex" : 0 }, "schema" : "" }(SBIDM - UA, 2016, p. 7). In the latter case, the quotation must be formatted as a long block quotation with the “Quote” text style. It is identical to the “Normal” style, indenting the left margin of the text in 1,27 cm (0,5’’), and applying a double space to leading. The quotation must not be included within quotation marks. The reference to the author and date must be provided in the end, followed by a comma and the page (p.), or the range of pages (pp.) within curved parenthesis, following the final period:If the quotation comprises 40 or more words, display it in a freestanding block of text and omit the quotation marks. Start such a block quotation on a new line and indent the block about a half-inch from the left margin (in the same position as a new paragraph). If there are additional paragraphs within the quotation, indent the first line of each an additional half inch. Double-space the entire quotation. At the end of a block quotation, cite the quoted source and the page or paragraph number in parentheses after the final punctuation mark.

We hope the examples and styles demonstrated here are enough for the authors to format and submit their final papers accordingly. If in doubt, please contact this template maintainer: pamado@fba.up.pt.AcknowledgementsIf necessary, the last section should present briefly the acknowledgements to the subjects, collaborators, institutions, line of funding or companies that have had a relevant role in the development of the research. In this specific case, the 2ET and the 6ET co-organizers.ReferencesReferences should use a known and appropriate referencing style. They should be included in the main body of the text (author-date format) and must be complete in this section. We recommend using the 6th edition of the APA standards for the body text and final bibliographic references section. The APA standards can be reviewed online at: .
