6th Call for the evaluation of the editorial and scientific quality of the Spanish scientific journals. ¿What's new?
By the repository unit, open access and FECYT journal
https://calidadrevistas.fecyt.es/
Since 2007, and every other year, FECYT launches a call
for evaluating the editorial and scientific quality of the Spanish
scientific journals. There is an expert panel that conducts the evaluation. It
is based on an exhaustive and rigorous analysis of journals’ compliance with a
set of formal editing criteria, plus the analysis of their visibility and
impact levels.
Currently there are 298
journals awarded with the FECYT Quality Seal. The evaluation process has been improved
throughout the years. In the 2018 call the following changes have been
included:
1. Reinforcement of the open
access and interoperability indicators, with the aim of increasing
competitiveness and excellence among the journals that apply for the quality accreditation.
2. Usage of a
standardized thematic classification, similar to the one used by the Scientific
Evaluation Agency.
3. Simplification of the
participation process.
