ARBITRATION SYSTEM

The arbitration system for the articles received uses the double-blind peer review method, that is, the reviewers do not know the names or affiliation of the authors and the authors do not know the names or affiliation of the reviewers. As a minimum, each article is reviewed by two reviewers who are external national and international evaluators who do not belong to the internal team of the journal. The review process is confidential and participants agree not to disclose any information in the review.

The procedure used for the selection of the articles to be published is represented graphically in the following image which is explained below:

  1. The author sends the manuscript of his article to the journal through the editorial management system that ensures anonymity.
  2. The editor-in-chief performs a preliminary examination of the article to verify that it meets the essential parameters of the journal: subject matter, structure of the article, compliance with general instructions, anti-plagiarism review, etc.
  3. Based on the result of the examination in step 2, the editor-in-chief decides:

   3.1 Reject the article for not complying with the essential parameters.

   3.2 Invite a set of reviewers to review the manuscript.

  1. Reviewers who have accepted the invitation in step 3.2, submit their reviews through the editorial management system that ensures anonymity.
  2. The Editor-in-Chief re-reviews the manuscript and the reviewers' reviews.
  3. Based on the outcome of the review at step 6, the editor-in-chief decides:

6.1 Request an additional review by one or more additional reviewers in case of doubt about the reviews received.
