ARTICLE REVIEW PROCESS

Thereafter, the article is reviewed for plagiarism in the URKUND system, the percentage of plagiarism accepted by the Journal (10%). If the article overcomes the first filter and if it does not exceed 10% of plagiarism, it will be blinded by the Editor. Following this, the editorial team sends the blinded article to academic peers, that does not belong to the Instituto Superior Tecnológico Luis Rogerio González. INCITEC adheres to the double-blind process.

When the peers issue their evaluations, in case there are suggestions, corrections or modifications, it will be sent to the author so that he/she can proceed to make the pertinent changes, in a term no longer than fifteen (15) calendar days.  The review process lasts approximately 3 months. The author will receive communications, via email, about the stages in which the article is in.

INCITEC does not charge any fee for the review of scientific articles.
