Review process
Papers are expected to be submitted in English. Nevertheless, the Journal will accept submissions in Spanish, as long as the authors accept translating it into English at their expense, once the final version of the paper has been accepted.
The Journal Editorial team first screens submitted papers. Papers that do not fall within the scope of the Journal or that are considered not to reach a minimum threshold for quality and/or originality are returned to the authors (desk-rejected), usually within a period of two weeks.
Once a paper is considered suitable for revision, it is assigned to an Associate Editor and it is reviewed using a ‘double blind’ process. Editorial decision, along with copies of the reviews, are sent to the corresponding author.
Papers accepted by BRQ would be published in ahead of print section, which provides immediate access and doi citation to finalized manuscripts prior to its assignment to an issue.
