Guidelines for authors

Below are guidelines for authors regarding the submission process in our Journal.

  1. The author's title is not evaluated as a criterion for submission.
  2. Consult the Editorial Program.
  3. See Publication Rules.
  4. It is not mandatory to belong to any specific theme, as we have sections of different themes to include other subjects.
  5. The work can be submitted through the website or sent to revista@sppa.org.br, with complete data (author, title, institution, professional address, e-mail and telephone), as the text is prepared for peer-reviewed evaluation (anonymous) right here by the Journal's secretariat.
  6. The assessment process can include two steps. When approved, an editorial decision will be issued informing or requesting adjustments (minor revision). If approval is conditional, more in-depth recommendations (major revision) will be sent.
  7. Publication in future editions will be informed by the Editor, after distribution of works according to thematic and special sessions.
