Instructions for reviewers
1. The review of articles will follow the system of anonymous and independent double peer review (double-blind process). The Editorial Board will take the reviewers' comments into account before making a decision on the submitted paper. It is believed that their academic judgment will be an essential input to support the final decision regarding the publication of the manuscript. We count on the rigor and clarity of the reviewers to guarantee the scientific quality of the articles to be published.
2. The review process will be carried out on the OJS platform. For this purpose, if the reviewer has not registered, he/she will have to do so or will receive an e-mail from the Editor with his/her user name and password to enter the platform.
The reviewer will receive a notification with the proposal to review. If he/she accept, he/she will receive the text of the article and will have one month to carry out the review. The OJS platform form presents the aspects to be evaluated and the possibilities of opinion, as well as offering a space to put all the comments that the reviewer deems appropriate. If the author needs to make important changes before the article is accepted, the Editor may send it back to the reviewer, asking him/her to evaluate the new version.
In case of any doubt, the reviewer can contact the Editor through the platform or by e-mail.
3. The reviewers are chosen according to the criteria of recognized solvency in the area or topic of study of the article and impartiality of judgment regarding the author of the article, the topic, the methodology and the content of the article. If the reviewer considers that there is any reason that prevents him/her from an anonymous, independent and fair evaluation of the article, he/she should communicate this or decline the request for review.
4. The confidentiality of the author and reviewers is guaranteed. The paper submitted to the reviewer's evaluation is a private document, so please do not show it to third parties or expose its contents to others. The reviewer's evaluation will also be treated confidentially. Only those comments considered most important for improving the manuscript will be transmitted to the author, without revealing the identity of the reviewer. If some comments are addressed only to the Editorial Board and not to the author, the reviewer must indicate this.
