Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.
  • The contribution must be original and not previously published. In addition, the paper must not be under review by another journal or submitted to another periodical.
  • It is mandatory to send a document containing the identification of the authors: name, affiliation and e-mail of the corresponding author.
  • Citations and references are standardized according to the American Psychological Association (APA) model.
  • Papers submitted in Portuguese, after approval, must be translated into English, with certification of translation issued by a professional in the area, along with the correction/revision of the abstract. The team member responsible for copy editing will check the translation of the article, and if it is not in line with the journal's standards, be aware that the study will be returned for reformulation.
    Articles submitted in English, on the other hand, after approval, must be reviewed with a review certification issued by a professional in the field. The team member responsible for copy editing will consider the revision of the article, and if it is not in line with the journal's standards, be aware that the study will be returned for reformulation. In addition, a copy of the Portuguese version is required by the journal.
  • When a manuscript is accepted by Revista Uningá, it has an Article Processing Charge (APC) of R$300,00 (BRL) per paper. It is noteworthy that the amount is only charged after the acceptance of the manuscript for publication. With regard to paper submission, nothing is charged to carry it out.
  • The text has single-space (1,0); uses a 12-point font; uses italics instead of underlining. Figures and Tables are inserted in the text, not at the end of the document in the form of attachments.
    Figures must be in editable format and be of high-quality.
  • The file stating the contribution of each author needs to be filled in according to the CRediT taxonomy.

    It can be found at: https://uninga.br/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/CRediT-Revista-Uninga-English.pdf
  • You need to register with ORCID and fill in your information (e.g., affiliation and scientific production) in order to be recognized and avoid ambiguity among authors. It is also essential that your profile remains open to the public, as this helps to identify you.
  • Use of international checklists to prepare the work, such as:
    CARE (for case reports).
    CONSORT (for randomized clinical trials).
    COREQ (for qualitative studies).
    PRISMA (for systematic reviews and meta-analyses).
    STROBE (for observational studies in epidemiology).
