Consequently, articles that communicate research must indicate and reference the availability of content underlying the preparation of the research and the results obtained. Also, in line with open science practices, the journal offers authors and reviewers options to open the peer review process, with or without identifying their names. Authorization to disclose the name may be given by the authors when submitting the manuscript and by the evaluators when filling out the Open Science Compliance Form. If the evaluations that supported the decision to publish the manuscript are published, they may be edited by the journal's editorial board. The contribution of the section editors is duly credited in the published article. Reviewers receive a declaration of the manuscript's opinion and can also validate the activity on Publons or Reviewer Credit. |
Ethics in Publication
|
For researchers, authors, editors and reviewers, in addition to ethical precepts, standards of conduct are applied that derive from the specific purpose of their profession: the construction, dissemination and collective appropriation of science. These standards define the ethical integrity of scientific activities and can be deduced from a fundamental principle: every scientist must exercise their profession in the most appropriate way to result in the advancement and socialization of science in a public way. Revista Katálysis is convinced that the combined efforts of researchers, research institutions, authors, editors and reviewers will be successful in maintaining the dissemination of scientific research in accordance with the standards of ethical integrity. Revista Katálysis maintains publishing ethics standards and takes all possible measures in the publication process. The guidelines recommended by COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) must guide the standards of behavior of all parties involved in the act of publication: the author and the journal's editorial team.

|
Artificial intelligence does not meet Revista Katálysis requirements for authorship of a scientific article, given the need for accountability. Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools and Language Models (LLM) cannot be listed as authors in any academic work published in this journal. The use of Artificial Intelligence can be used by authors in cases that are not related to ethical problems, such as: responsibility for the article, presence and absence of conflict of interest nor being responsible for managing licensing agreements and author(s) rights(es). Texts obtained through AI may include biases, distortions, irrelevances, misrepresentations and plagiarism, many of which are caused by the algorithms that govern their generation and depend, to a large extent, on the content of the materials used to form the questions. |
Peer Review Process
|
Revista Katálysis criteria for accepting articles include originality, data validity, clarity of writing, repercussions of conclusions and scientific contribution to Social Work and related areas. The process of evaluating articles submitted to Revista Katálysis consists of two stages. The first, a preliminary assessment by the Editors and Editorial Committee, who examine the suitability of the manuscript for the journal's editorial line and carry out the Desk Review assessment. The name of the editor responsible for the preliminary analysis evaluation process will be published in the final publication of the article. The second consists of the evaluation itself, which is carried out by two ad hoc consultants. The evaluation primarily considers the scientific quality of the text, focusing on the following aspects: suitability for the objectives and editorial policy of Revista Katálysis, manuscript presentation format and publication potential, rigor, clarity and precision regarding scientific production, the writing, methodological description, content and ethical-theoretical probity. The Editors and the Editorial Committee, in possession of the referees' analyses, will make the final decision based on the Journal's editorial program. In case of discrepancies between the reviewers, a third opinion may be requested. The Editors will forward the final decision to the responsible author, via the Periodicals Portal Platform. In line with Open Science communication practices, the journal now adopts in its editorial policy the opening of the peer review process in common agreement with the reviewer. Furthermore, authors may choose one or more means of opening the peer review process offered by the journal, as well as authors may agree to interact directly with reviewers responsible for evaluating the manuscript, when offered the option. The reviewers, through an opinion written on the Periodicals Portal Platform, will recommend one of five options: Accept (with or without restrictions) Mandatory fixes Resubmit for evaluation Submit to another magazine Reject Writing/Style – Revista Katálysis spelling, standards and style reviews complete the evaluation process. |
