Technological article evaluation form

The purpose of evaluating manuscripts submitted to REGEPE is to contribute to the quality of the academic production presented.

We recommend that you – reviewer, evaluator –, when issuing an opinion or evaluation on the manuscript considered for publication by REGEPE, do so, bearing in mind the codes of conduct and guidelines suggested by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), which are also available on our website for consultation.

In line with open science practices, REGEPE offers you the option of opening the peer review process, with or without identifying your name. If you authorize this disclosure, simply select one of the options in the last question of “Compliance with Open Science”, which appears at the end of this form.

In order to confirm and recognize your evaluation, in addition to giving visibility to your valuable volunteer effort in the preparation of reviews, REGEPE has the ReviewerCredits system integrated with the journal's system, and you can select the options you want. ReviewerCredits is a commercial website that provides a free service for scholars to track, verify, and showcase their peer-reviewed, publicizing their editorial contributions to academic journals.

We inform you that, in the case of disclosing evaluations that support the decision to publish an manuscript, this may be edited by the editorial board of the journal.

An excellent review!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
