SUBMISSION METHOD

Manuscripts must be submitted using the OJS submission platform and not by email.

 

REVIEW SYSTEM AND EDITORIAL PROCESS

Receipt of manuscripts will be acknowledged within 15 days of submission.

Redmarka operates a system of double-blind peer review by two anonymous experts in the area covered by the article, outside the editorial team and the publishing institution.

Authors are encouraged to share the data used, where appropriate, to support the validation of research results in the evaluation process. For this, a "readme.txt" file must be used to guarantee double-blind review. It can be downloaded at the following link: modelo_redaccion_readme_eng relleno_anonimo.txt 

After review, the editors will recommend that the manuscript be ‘accepted’, ‘accepted with minor modifications’, ‘accepted with major modifications’ or ‘rejected’.

Manuscripts accepted for consideration by the journal will be sent for peer review, which will be completed within 45 days. The manuscript will be subjected to as many reviews (expert peer and editorial) as deemed necessary by the editors. Authors will be notified of the results of each evaluation.

Prior to publication, the author(s) will receive a PDF proof of the manuscript for verification and minor corrections. The editors will require the contribution of the authors in the article through the following document https://udcgal-my.sharepoint.com/:w:/g/personal/matias_membiela_udc_es/EXu7KLt1KGJLm5wpO-lKJeIB6M-HF3wJxRJGoNs-GfH1AQ?e=cjYCYZ
