Guideline for Authors
Editorial Process
Creneida will publish one issue a year. Articles will be received throughout the year.
Works will be submitted in digital format (.doc, .docx or .rtf) through the OJS3 platform: Register or log in if you are already registered.
The original works will be evaluated through a Double-Blind Peer Review system that will determinate its acceptance. If there is a discrepancy between the two reports, the paper will be sent to a third evaluator.
Creneida's Editorial Board agrees with the authors to email them the external evaluation reports within 3 months from their submission.
Originality request
All papers sent to Creneida must be original and unpublished.
Editorial policy on joint authorship
Authors who submit a joint article should inform of the criteria followed to decide the order of signature and the specific contribution of each author. This information will be indicated in a footnote that will be placed after the name of the last author.
Recommendations and warnings
The Editorial Board, except in special circumstances, urges authors to use email as the main communication channel with the journal.
The Editorial Board reserves the right to reject the publication of the papers if they do not meet the orthotypographical and, above all, grammatical and stylistic requirements.
The Editorial Board reserves the right to intervene in the original works that are sent to the Board, before even forwarding them to external informants, in order to ensure maximum linguistic-stylistic clarity and orthodoxy. Obviously, before publishing them, they will be submitted again to the opinion of their author / s.
The books, journals, proceedings, etc., for reviewing will be sent to the postal address of this journal. All of them will be registered in the section of received books. The works sent to Creneida will not be returned.
The length limit will be 25 pages for articles and 4 for book reviews, although longer papers may be published if recommended by their interest.
