Participating in the conference gives you the unique opportunity to publish a chapter in a post-conference monograph in English. The condition for publishing a scientific study is the acceptance of the paper or poster planned to perform during the conference “Spirituality and/or Religiousness – A Remedy for Existential Emptiness and Health or a Modern Excess?” and obtaining a positive double-blind review. Thus, the publication is exempt from additional fees.
The conference formula enables publishing within the selected set of articles written by authors affiliated in various scientific institutions from different countries, and therefore, gives a chance to an international recognition of the publication. The monograph will be published by Ignatianum Publishing House with a rating from the Ministry of Science and Higher Education.
Articles should be submitted by June 2026 via email to: .
Please note that submission of an article does not guarantee publication.
Editorial decisions are made based on the recommendations of two independent reviewers appointed by the editors, following a double-blind peer review process.
Editorial Guidelines
The text of the article should contain up to 25 pages (1800 characters without spaces), including figures and tables. The text should be written in Times New Roman, 12-point font, with 1.5-point spacing. Subsequent paragraphs should begin with a 1.25-point indent or a single blank line. All margins are standard 2.5 cm. The text should be justified on both sides.
The abstract of an empirical article should include the purpose of the work, its main theses, and the methods used. The abstract of a review or conceptual article should include the most important theses and a summary of the article’s ideas.
Due to the double-blind review, the main text with a title page without authors’ details and the title page with full author’s’ details including affiliation and ORCID number should be submitted in separate files.
Page numbering should be continuous throughout the text (no page number is provided on the title page).
Footnotes: In exceptional and justified cases (e.g., additional information to facilitate the reader’s understanding of a given text fragment/concept/issue), footnotes may be placed at the bottom of the page; for such footnotes, 10-point Times New Roman font and single-line spacing are used.
Words in languages other than English should be italicized.
Titles and subheadings should be boldface.
Citations of sources, tables and figures should follow the style of the 7th edition of the American Psychological Association (APA) standards as follows:
