Peer review process

Contributions must favorably accredit the academic opinion process, which will operate under the peer review modality, double blind, where the identity of both the authors and the reviewers will remain anonymous:

  1. The articles that accredit the editorial opinion will be sent to expert academics in the same disciplinary and thematic area as those of the postulated text. The reviewers will be selected from the portfolio of referees –made up of specialists from national and international institutions–, who will comment on the relevance and quality of the proposed text and determine the feasibility of its publication.
  2. The reviewers will be responsible for reviewing and analyzing that the texts are an original contribution, that the theoretical references are relevant and the appropriate methodology, and assess the relevance of the findings described.
  3. All texts will be sent to two experts –attached to a different institution from that of the authors–, who will issue their comments. Ultimately, based on the reviewers' recommendations, the editor's decision will be:

    Referee A Referee B Resolution
    Positive Positive Accepted
    Positive Negative Sending the article to ArbiterC,
    whose decision will be final
    and unappealable
    Positive Conditional
    (subject to changes
    and resubmission)    		 The corrected article returns
    to the reviewer, who accepts or rejects the publication (2nd round)
    Negative Conditional
    (subject to changes
    and resubmission)    		 Rejected
    Negative Negative Rejected

     

  4. The editorial committee will guarantee, in all cases, that the opinions delivered to the authors contain solid arguments that support the editorial decision.
  5. The time for the document to be submitted for review will depend on the number of articles on the waiting list. Once the author has been notified of the receipt of the article, the estimated time for the opinion is 45 days.
  6. In case of receiving comments, the author will have a period of 15 days to send the new version of the work to the editor.
  7. The referees, once the article has been received, will have a period of 30 days to carry out the review and deliver the result.
  8. Accepted documents will start the editing process (style correction, layout, metadata marking, etc.) to be published later, according to the decision of the editorial direction
  9. Once the editorial process is complete, the preliminary version of the text will be sent to the authors for final review and approval. These will have a period of three calendar days for the delivery of the Declaration of originality, Assignment of rights and Declaration of conflict of interest, and Authorization for publication.
  10. We will only issue certificates of acceptance of publication to authors who request to fondoeditorial@unaaa.edu.pe.
