Instructions to authors

 

Scope and policies of the journal

 

The scope of the Revista Latinoamericana de Psicopatologia Fundamental covers not only research related to the clinics of psychology, psychoanalysis, and psychiatry in the strict sense, but also subjectivity in its broader articulations with history, philosophy, social sciences, arts and culture in general. Furthermore, it publishes documents that constitute important historical sources, as well as interviews with authors in the field. Articles may be written in Portuguese, Spanish, French or English, and should contain titles, abstracts, and keywords in those four languages. Submitting an article to the journal implies that it has not been previously published and is not being considered for another publication. The journal adopts the double-blind peer review process. We use plagiarism detection tools to verify submitted articles, and we publish the authors' contributions according to CRediT -Contributor Roles Taxonomy.

The journal is managed by two editors-in-chief and by associate editors who are responsible for specific sections. It has also an Editorial and a Scientific Board with members of various national and international universities.

The "Editorial" is signed by the editors-in-chief or by a guest. It may also be submitted by experts in the subject matter.

“Interview” approaches current themes in psychopathology, and authors who have discussed them. Editors: Cristina Lindenmeyer-Saint Martin and Paulo Roberto Ceccarelli.

The “Articles” section, which only publishes original articles that may contribute to the advancement of knowledge in psychopathology, focusing on psychic suffering and subjectivity.  Editors: Maria Lívia Tourinho Moretto, Nelson da Silva Jr, Paulo Antonio de Campos Beer e Rafael Alves Lima.

Publication fee

From July 1, 2020, the RLPF will charge a fee for publishing articles, to assure the maintenance of the journal, due to the current restrictions on financial support from Brazilian public agencies for scientific journals. The amount of this fee is R$ 600.00 (six hundred reais) per approved article, and the authors must pay it after the article is accepted for publication when we will instruct them on how to make the payment. We will provide a declaration of payment of the fee. Requests for exemption from payment of the fee should be sent to the journal's editors, duly justified. Members of AUPPF who have already paid their annual membership fee will be exempt.
