2. The author will present his article virtually through an email addressed to revistaucvhacer@ucv.edu.pe, attaching the Cover Letter (see Annex 01) and the correctly completed data sheet (see Annex 02). Likewise, through a Simple Affidavit (see Annex 03) you will acquire the commitment not to send the article simultaneously to other publication media. Works written in Spanish, English, French and Portuguese will be accepted.

3. To publish research works in our journal, the author or authors must have the ORCID code, which must be attached to the side of their name.

4. Sending a collaboration for publication implies that the author authorizes the UCV Hacer Journal to reproduce it by any means or support and at the time it deems appropriate, unless expressly waived by the latter. The acceptance of a work for publication assumes that the authors transfer the rights of editing, printing, production, dissemination and distribution to the UCV HACER Journal as a publication of the César Vallejo University.

5. The UCV HACER Journal and the César Vallejo University are not responsible for the opinions expressed in the works, as well as for the malpractice carried out by the collaborators in relation to their articles.

6. Receipt of a work does not imply a commitment to publication by UCV HACER Journal. 

II. Presentation and acceptance of articles (Arbitration System)

Written works must respect the editorial standards (see point IV) established by the UCV HACER Journal, in addition to the grammatical and spelling standards of the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE). If a manuscript is written under the structure of a different format, it must be adapted to the established format.
All articles received will be filtered by a plagiarism system in order to verify the originality of the work and the percentage of coincidence.
All works will be subjected to a double-blind evaluation process, in which the collaboration will be sent to two external evaluators of recognized prestige without any indication of references to the authors.
In case of controversy in relation to the final publication opinion, the Editorial Committee will proceed to select the works according to the formal and content criteria.
The time considered from receipt to publication of the scientific article can vary between sixty to ninety calendar days depending on the editorial flow.

See review format.

III. Article structure

Scientific articles will be written under the IMRYD structure (Introduction, Material and Method, Results and Discussion) because it is applicable to quantitative studies, especially experimental, in addition to being suitable for qualitative studies.

Title. Describe the content of the article specifically, clearly, accurately, briefly and concisely. It allows the reader to identify the topic and the communicative purpose in addition to cataloging the material accurately. Does not use jargon or abbreviations. The length should not be more than 15 words. Excessive use of articles or prepositions in addition to subtitles should be avoided.

Author or authors. It must contain the full name of the person responsible. If two or more authors have participated, they will be mentioned gradually in alphabetical order. Initials should not be used instead of names, nor academic degrees or institutional positions because these will appear in the footer. If authorship is shared with students of the Undergraduate or Graduate programs, the owner of the article must authorize its co-authorship rights through a legal document (see Annex 04).

Abstract. It allows the reader to identify the basic content of the article quickly and accurately, determines the relevance and relevance of the article. It must be expressed clearly and briefly, describing the objectives and scope of the study, the time, place, research subjects, methodology used, results (findings) and most notable conclusions.

Keywords. They facilitate entries in indexing and information retrieval systems (descriptors). Use the thesauruses or vocabulary specific to each area. Does not use abbreviations or prepositions.

Introduction. Identify the problem and describe its origin. Accurately and precisely distinguishes the general problem from the problem investigated. It is supported by a conceptual framework and background that bases the study. Describe the objectives clearly and precisely. Define the variables (dependent and independent), the reason why the study is being undertaken and formulate the hypothesis appropriately.

Method. It refers to the procedures used to solve the problem and the resources used. Describes the research design including premises and limitations, details of the instrumental equipment, materials and conditions of the experiment. Explain how it was put into practice, justifying the choice of procedures and techniques. Provides enough information for a competent reader to repeat the study (ensure its reproducibility). If the information is extensive, second-level headings (subheadings) should be used in the following order: study design; selection of subjects or objects; assignment of subjects or objects to study groups (experimental, control); intervention (treatment, etc.); measurement of effect (impact); analysis methods and statistics used.

Results. Shows the data generated by the research, summarizes the author's contribution, presents information related to the study objectives, presents the findings in a logical order. Through an appropriate means of presentation, summarize the statistical treatment of the information collected, mention all relevant findings (even those contrary to the hypothesis), and include sufficient details to justify the conclusions. In other words, it presents information through texts, tables and figures in a logical sequence.

Discussion. The results are analyzed and interpreted based on their meaning and limitations. The relationship of coherence or contradiction between the data presented is determined, the implications of the results are evaluated and qualified, especially with respect to the original hypothesis. Valid inferences are made from the results highlighting any theoretical consequences and the validity of their conclusions. The similarities and differences between the results and the work of other authors and the aspects that need to be investigated are pointed out; that is, it argues the validity of the final product.

Conclusions. They are inferences or logical deductions from the data presented. They answer the research question posed in the introduction, as well as the questions that led to the research. It is justified by findings or results. It is directly related to the objectives of the research.

References. They identify the original sources of ideas, concepts, methods and techniques from previous studies that have already been published. They provide solidity to the facts and opinions expressed by the author and guide the reader so that they are informed in greater extent and depth about relevant aspects of the study.
