ROLE OF THE EDITOR AND REVIEWERS

The editor is responsible for:

  • Ensuring the scientific quality of the journal.
  • Selecting and assigning reviewers for scientific articles.
  • Verifying that the articles comply with the publication standards established by the journal.
  • Approve or reject the publication of scientific articles.

The reviewers are in charge of:

  • Analyze the quality of the content of the articles.
  • Verify the scientific quality of the articles.
  • Verifying that the article contributes to the field of knowledge.
  • Compliance with the rules of style (APA).

The reasons for which the editors and reviewers reject an article from the first instance are:

  • The article does not meet the minimum requirements for acceptance (in terms of subject matter, structure, guidelines, norms).
  • The article is speculative, it does not have scientific quality.
  • The theoretical basis is not strong enough.
  • The methodology is weak.
  • The data analysis is poor.
  • It does not make a substantial contribution to knowledge.
  • There is no congruence throughout the sections.
  • It is not written correctly.
