Peer evaluation process

Arbitration system

The “RECIHYS” Magazine will only receive articles that comply with the theme and format described. Items that do not conform to these specifications will be returned ad portas.

During the arbitration process, both the authors and the evaluators maintain anonymity. To achieve this condition, any name or information that leads to the identification of these people will be deleted from the documents that the Journal sends to each party.

As review policies for articles received, the journal establishes:

The Editorial Committee will first evaluate the relevance and compliance with the established format of the articles received.

In the event that the article is admitted by the Editorial Committee, it will assign two external peer reviewers who will carry out a blind arbitration process.

Each peer reviewer will inform, through the technological platform implemented for this purpose, if the article is valid for publication, if corrections are required or if it is not suitable for publication.

Evaluation results

Based on the concepts of the peer evaluators, three decisions can be made:

Accept this submission.

Publishable with modifications.

Not publishable.

In all cases, the authors will be informed of the decision adopted.

If there is no consensus among the evaluators, the article will be submitted to a third party, so that their criteria will allow them to decide whether it is published or not.

If the article is approved with corrections, the author(s) must resubmit it with the recommended adjustments. These will be verified by re-review from people who read it the first time.

If corrections are not made within the established time, the article will be published in a later issue.

In the case of articles accepted for publication, the General Editor will inform in which issue said publication will be published. Authors must complete the article originality certification form and copyright assignment.

Any violation of the journal's publication policy, the Editorial Committee reserves the right to take the corresponding measures as the case may be.
