3. Manuscript submission

  • The papers, which must be unpublished, should be sent by this system.  If you are not registered, you must do so before submitting your articles to review, using the format that appears in section REGISTER.  Once registered, you must open a working session (enter the website using your user name and password) and begin the process of sending the document, which consists of 5 steps.
  • The papers must be original and they must not be published previously. If they do not fill those requirements completely, an explanatory text at the end of the article is needed in which its publication is justified.
  • The articles must be sent in Mocrosoft Word (or equivalent), and in English or Spanish. DER will not edit submitted manuscripts for style or language. Also, reviewers may advise non acceptance of a manuscript if there are an unacceptable number of grammatical errors.

The extension of the body of the text is free. It is recommended that it has introduction,  methodology, results and conclusions.

The works should be accompanied by a bibliography at the end of the article.
