Normas de Estilo de la Publicación

Instructions to Authors
Preparing Manuscripts. Authors should prepare manuscripts according to the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (5th ed.). Typing instructions and instructions on preparing tables, figures, references, metrics, and abstracts appear in the Manual (consult Appendix A, Checklist for Manuscript Submission, as a guide). Manuscripts should be written in English, Spanish, Portuguese or Russian. Accepted Spanish, Portuguese or Russian manuscripts will be translated and published in English. All copy must be double-spaced, with a maximum of 30 pages (DIN A4). Figures, tables, and footnotes should be supplied on separate pages, and referred to in the text. References should be listed at the end of the manuscript and referred to in the text by name and year. All manuscripts should have two title pages: the first one with the short title, the full title, the author's name, affiliation, date of postage, and author's address; the second title page should only show the short title, the full title, and the postage date. All manuscripts are subject to editing for sexist language.
Abstracts. Manuscripts of articles must be accompanied by a 150-200 word abstracts in English. The abstracts should be a summary of the whole manuscript, not only of its conclusions. Each abstract must be typed on a separate page. A list of 4-5 key words should be provided directly below the abstract. Key words should express the precise content of the manuscript.
Submitting Manuscripts. Submission implies that the manuscript has not been published and is not currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. A statement transferring copyright to The Spanish Journal of Psychology will be required before the manuscript can be accepted for publication. Manuscripts should be accompanied by the corresponding cover letter. In addition to addresses, affiliation, and phone numbers, the cover letter should include electronic mail addresses and fax numbers, if available, for potential use by the editorial office and later by the production office. Authors should keep a copy of the manuscript to guard against loss. The first author will receive twenty-five (25) off-prints of the paper. Additional copies in multiples of fifty (50) may be purchased by filling out an off-print order form which will be sent with the proofs to the author. Mail manuscripts to the Editor
