All articles are double-blind peer-reviewed. This means that neither the authors nor the peers know each other's identity. Upon submission, the authors may exclude up to three persons from the reviewing process.
If the article meets the basic criteria regarding topic and scientific quality, it is assigned by the editorial team to two external reviewers, who, in the following 42 days, prepare their reviews in French, English, Italian or Spanish according to a predefined template. Before being reviewed, the articles submitted to the journal are checked regarding plagiarism.
The decision of the editorial team to accept or reject an article is based on the two reviews. If the two reviews do not allow for a decision, a third review will be commissioned. The decision is one of the following: accept submission, minor revisions required, major revisions required, resubmit elsewhere, reject submission. An article is accepted only after the revisions have been checked by the reviewers and the editorial team.
After being informed about the acceptation of the article, the authors prepare the final text according to the instructions of the journal's style sheet.
