Guidelines for authors

All manuscript pages should be numbered in the lower right corner. Subheadings should be in bold type, never in capitals. Each paragraph should be indented with a tab indentation.

Bibliographical references should be inserted in the text (never at the foot of the page) and should be alphabetically ordered at the end of the manuscript under the subtitle References. The author should be sure to consider only those sources that were used in the writing of the text and should not include additional references that have not been mentioned in the text.

*Please note the use of French indentation for the reference list.

Tables and figures should be included within the document and in the corresponding place. The number of tables and figures should be kept to the minimum necessary to present the subject adequately. All tables and figures should follow APA publication format.

All tables and figures should follow APA publication format.

The acceptance of articles will be determined according to the reports of two members of the Editorial Committee who are experts in the subject matter. If there is considerable disagreement between them, a third report will be appealed to. Contributions are selected on the basis of their theoretical and/or practical relevance. In general, rather than rigid methodological or epistemological criteria, consideration is given to the rigor with which the topic is treated.

Submission of contributions should be made through the Journal's OJS system.
