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.
General Guidelines
Scope: The thematic areas of the review, as defined by its Editorial Board, are: (I) Accounting and Controlling; (II) Strategy; (III) Finance; (IV) Personnel Management, and (V) Marketing.
Number of authors: A maximum of four authors per paper is allowed; authors may not be changed (removed, included or replaced) after the article has been submitted online. Authorship change requests will result in filing of the paper. If there is more than one author, please name the author in charge to whom our editorial correspondence may be sent and who will follow the submission process.
Authorship criteria: According to criteria adapted from ICMJE (1985), only authors may be designated as such who have sufficiently participated in the development of the work, from research design to its dissemination, thus being suitable to take public responsibility for its content. Authorship credits should be based exclusively on substantial contributions to:
(i) the design, planning, analysis or interpretation of data;
(ii) the writing of the article or its critical intellectual review;
(iii) the responsibility for the final approval for publication of the article.
All those conditions (i, ii and iii) must be complied with. Minor contributions, such as suggestion of literature, data analysis, or assistance in publishing do not guarantee authorship credits. These and other contributions to the work may be recognized separately in the form of “acknowledgements”, according to the authors' decision. However, acknowledgements must be excluded from the article upon its submission. They may be added to the article after it was accepted for publication.
Authors' Affiliation and Contribution: Upon submission of the paper, a biography of all authors containing ORCID, name, title, institutional affiliation, city/country of origin and academic title MUST be submitted in the form of additional documentation. Please rank authors according to the level of their involvement and contribution to the paper.
Each author must assume responsibility for at least one component of the work. If the article is approved for publication, the authors must indicate, according to the scheme presented on the journal page, what was the contribution of each one. This information will be made available in publications as a final note, in accordance with the Criteria, policies and procedures for admission and permanence of scientific journals in the SciELO Brazil Collection.
