The original manuscript must be written in Microsoft Word, in Verdana 10 font, with 1.5 spaces between lines, with 2.5 cm margins, without indentations, tabs or any other design attribute. It should not exceed 28 and 30 lines per page, for a maximum of 20 and a minimum of 10 pages per paper.

An original article must have the following structure in its content:

1. Title

• Contains the subject of the research and reflects the main solution of the research problem with no more than 15 words
• It is recommended not to write where or when the research was carried out, and not to use acronyms or abbreviations
• It must have an English version

2. Abstract

• It is presented in a single block of text whose content must be structured (Introduction-Objective-Materials and Methods-Results and Discussion)
• Provides a summary in English and Spanish of each of the main sections of the article in no more than 250 words
• It should be written in the past tense, in an impersonal tone and without abbreviations, references to the main text, footnotes or bibliographical references
• It should contain, in a summarized form, the foundations of the study, its purpose or objective and the scope of the research
• It should mention the materials and methods to be used to achieve the objective, comment on the results of greatest impact and state the conclusions of greatest significance and importance
• It should not contain any information that does not appear in the body of the article

3. Keywords

List between 3 and 8 words in alphabetical order and separated by semicolon (;) that represent the results of the research. This section is essential for proper indexing and retrieval of the article.

4. Introduction

• It refers to the problem that exists and the knowledge published on the subject up to the moment of starting the research
• It should be written in the present tense, with a descriptive-narrative style
• It includes the theoretical and rational basis of the study it describes, the what and why of the research
• The problematic situation (specific reality of interest) should be presented in a pragmatic way so that readers are interested in the solution
• The literature review should be presented in such a way that the reader understands what the gap in the state of knowledge is and the possible gaps in the research
• This section should conclude by arriving at the main purpose or objective of the research, highlighting the importance and scope of the solution

5. Materials and Methods

• Most of this section should be written in the past tense, with a descriptive style that allows reporting the main criteria for the selection of the methods to be used in correspondence with the objective of the research, the time period and scenarios to be studied, as well as commenting on the main limitations of the research
• The unit of analysis of the study, the different techniques and methods to be used for the collection, processing and analysis of the data; stating the scientific research methodology used in the research
• The use of acronyms, measurement systems, etc., is stated in the investigations that require it
• This section is of critical importance because the keystone of the scientific method requires that the results obtained, in order to have scientific value, be reproducible and, in order for the results to be considered reproducible, it is necessary to provide the basis for others to repeat the research and obtain the results

Ethical observation: Impartiality and anonymity are required in some studies. When describing surveys, diagnosis, experiments on human subjects, etc., indicate whether the procedures followed were in accordance with the ethical standards of the editorial board of the institution supervising the research.

6. Results and Discussion

• It should be written in the past tense, with a descriptive-narrative style, arguing with a very clear writing, without excessive use of verbs
• Experimental details reported in the materials and methods section are never repeated; if necessary, reference is made only to what is specified
• Results are interpreted and presented, not recapitulated. Judicious use should be made of polemics and constructive debate
• This section should concentrate on those results that provide solutions to the problem because they respond to the research question and research objectives
• The exposition should focus on the findings, their significance, consequences, limitations, etc., and its purpose is to show the existing relationships between the observed facts. First, the information that connotes the research is offered, that is, those interpretations with sufficient importance and significance that differentiate it from other research; then the results obtained are contrasted with those available in the literature consulted (second bibliographic review) to define whether they agree (or not) with what exists in the state of the art. If applicable, also state the theoretical implications of your work and its possible practical applications. The discussion should end with a brief summary of conclusions about the scope, limitations and significance of the research

Observation: In order to better illustrate large volumes of data, up to a total of 8 tables, charts, figures or maps may be used, but these graphed data should never be repeated within the text. Representative data should be offered and not repetitive data, it is necessary to demonstrate the ability to discern and discriminate non-representative data when offering new results. Illustrations must have a consecutive number and, in the case of tables, their title and source of information must be indicated in the upper part, while the rest of the figures must be indicated in the lower part. Remember that the source of information must be referenced according to the bibliographic style of the journal. Images should have a good resolution that allows clear visualization without the need to zoom.

7. Acknowledgements (optional)

Their purpose is courtesy and gratitude and they are not always necessary. Technical (person, institution, organization, etc.) and external financial support (grants, contracts, projects, scholarships, etc.) should be acknowledged, as well as collaborations that should be acknowledged but do not justify co-authorship.

8. Bibliographical references

• They must comply with the bibliographic style selected for the journal: APA 7th edition
• The maximum number of references should be 20 and a minimum of 10
• Only include works cited in the text, which must be 60% up to date in the last 5 years
• References to sources of information such as abstracts, dissertations, reports, journals, web pages and blog entries, papers to events (except those published in Proceedings indexed in databases) and theses (except published doctoral theses with their respective link) will not be accepted
