Scientific Excellence

Editorial and Review Process

Our rigorous evaluation process ensures the quality and academic excellence of publications, complying with international standards (Double-Blind).

Editorial Workflow

1

Reception and Initial Evaluation

1-3 days

The editorial team verifies that the manuscript meets formal requirements and thematic scope. A strict originality check is performed using anti-plagiarism software.

2

Editorial Assignment

1-2 weeks

A specialized editor evaluates the scientific relevance of the manuscript and decides whether to proceed to peer review or reject it at this stage (Desk Reject).

3

Peer Review (Double-Blind)

6-8 weeks

The editor assigns at least 2 international experts (national or foreign) in the field. During this process:

  • Guaranteed anonymity: Reviewers do not know the authors' identities, and authors do not know the reviewers'.
  • Rigorous evaluation: Originality, methodological rigor, contribution to the field, and expository clarity are evaluated.
  • Tie-breaking: If evaluations are discrepant, a third deciding reviewer is called.
4

Decision and Revisions

2-4 weeks

The editor analyzes reports and issues a decision (Acceptance, Minor Revisions, Major Revisions, or Rejection). Authors must respond to observations by addressing raised objections.

5

Editing and Final Publication

Final Stage

After scientific approval, the manuscript undergoes copyediting, layout, galley proof review, and JATS XML markup, to finally be published and digitally preserved.
