Author Guidelines

All texts must be written preferentially in English, or Portuguese and Spanish.

Manuscripts should be organized in the following order: abstracts in Portuguese/English/Spanish followed by 4-6 keywords, the full text, acknowledgements, references, and authors' contribution (see https://credit.niso.org). Pages should be numbered consecutively. 

Tables and figures must be presented with their respective captions (in both Portuguese and English) within the body of the text, in the approximate positions where they will appear in the printed version.

All titles and subtitles should be numbered in the following way:
1st level: 1 
2nd level: 1.1 
3rd level: 1.1.1

Text and tables should be created in Word for Windows, Times New Roman or Arial. All tables should be self-explanatory and numbered consecutively.
Citations and bibliographical references should follow the APA standard (Version 7) - https://apastyle.apa.org/.
In the text, the authors' names should be cited according to the author/date system. Examples:

Silva (1980)

Silva et al. (1982)
