Author Guidelines
The Journal of ABPN prioritizes the dissemination of original, unpublished works resulting from empirical research of an academic-scientific nature, involving reflections on the interests of the black population on the different levels of schooling and that contribute to an Anti-Racist Education.
For conceptualization, the LILACs criteria are used:
http://metodologia.lilacs.bvsalud.org/php/level.php? lang=pt&component=74&item=21
Papers submitted for publication must be unpublished and may not be in the process of being analyzed in another journal. They may have originated from academic papers and papers presented at scientific congresses, but the text will never be (wholly or partially) equal to those. In the case of papers presented at congresses, it is necessary that the submitted text be clearly an expansion of the initial work. Any submission identified as previously published in another medium or whose text corresponds to the paper presented at a scientific congress - that is, that can be characterized as autoplágio - will not be sent for evaluation.
Manuscripts must be unpublished, ie they may not have been previously published with attribution of DOI (Document Object Identifier), ISSN (International Standard Serial Number) or ISBN (International Standard Book Number).

We recommend that if the paper is the result of experimental studies involving humans, the opinion of the Ethics Committee recognized by the National Health Council (CNS) through Plataforma Brasil should be presented.
The Journal of ABPN adopts CC-BY 4.0 Creative Commons open licensing, so there are no costs for submission and publication of papers.

Conflict of interest guidelines
The Journal of ABPN, aiming to ensure its reliability for editors, authors, reviewers and readers, adopts a Code of Good Practice. The code is based on the ANPAD Good Practice Manual (ANPAD, 2017) and the Main Practice from Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
Standards of Ethics and Misconduct
The Journal of ABPN follows a code of ethics that guides the community and addresses the rights and obligations of members to each other and to the public. Such a code seeks to maximize the benefits produced by this period for the improvement of society and the teaching profession of all concerned by limiting the actions that may serve the narrow interests of some individuals.
The following guidelines are intended to clarify a set of ethical guidelines for The Journal of ABPN editors, authors, and reviewers.
This material was compiled from the American Chemical Society's Ethical Guidelines for Publication, the Fapesp Code of Good Scientific Practice, and the publication of Antonio Marques da Rosa and Júlio Chachamovich in What does the excellence of a Scientific Journal R. Psychiatry. RS, 25 '(2): 253-256, May / Aug. 2003 available at: http://www.scielo.br/pdf/rprs/v25n2/v25n2a02.pdf
Rules of conduct on plagiarism and data forgery
- In case of identification of plagiarism, manufacture, falsification, improper republication and simultaneous submission, the authors authorize the ABPN to make the event public, informing the occurrence to the editors of the magazines involved and to any plagiarized authors.
1.0. Plagiarism, defined as "the appropriation of another person's ideas, processes, results or words without due credit (Roig, 2006)", is not accepted in the Journal of ABPN. We consider plagiarism the copying of texts or phrases, word for word (or very similar), from any other author. Self-plagiarism, that is, the replication of texts or data from previous works by the authors themselves, with or without proper citation, is equally unacceptable. Reasonable repetition of some ideas and reordering of one or two sentences by the authors themselves is acceptable. Word-by-word replication of data or phrases must come in quotation marks and with due credit. It is equally unacceptable to suggest a novelty when the methodology or results have already been published by the author or any other author (Roig, M. Avoiding plagiarism, self-plagiarism, and other questionable writing practices. Available at: http://ori.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/plagiarism.pdf ).
- The manufacture of data, or the "claim that data, procedures or results were obtained or conducted when in fact they were not" and falsification, or the "presentation of data, procedures or results in such a modified, inaccurate or incomplete way as to interfere in the evaluation of the true scientific merit of the research findings" (FAPESP - Fundação de Amparo to the São Paulo State Research, Code of Good Scientific Practices, São Paulo: FAPESP, 2012), by the authors, are unacceptable practices in the publications of the Journal of ABPN.
Ethical Guidelines
- AUTHORS Clear and concise description of their contribution and their importance. Research detail to allow repetition by other scientists. Credits to previous work. Cite sources from current research. Avoid publication and multiple submission. Co-authorship: All authors must agree. It is the responsibility of the lead author: to include all who participated and to exclude those who did not participate; establish communication between editor and other authors. Anyone who submits an paper is making a contract with that magazine and accepts the imposed rules.
- PEER REVIEWERS Provide objective and confidential assessment. The peer reviewer is released in the following situations: conflict of interest (personal, professional, economic); little familiarity with the subject; has already reviewed that text for another magazine. Confidentiality: Do not disclose the content or identify yourself as a reviewer to anyone, including the authors, without the permission of the publisher. Exception: When requesting cooperation from a colleague, you will be subject to the same rules of confidentiality. You should not copy material from text. Documentation: Provide written evaluation. Have the obligation to point out failures to mention relevant works or other authors, as well as to point out the scientific insufficiencies of the work.
- PUBLISHERS Ensure the integrity of the scientific journal. Make the decision to accept or decline based on scientific criteria. Reasons for refusal: lack of originality; unreliability of science; absence of significant contribution; lack of clarity or inadequate presentation of the material. Confidentiality and impartiality. Editor's authority: It is up to the editor to make the final decision about what is published in the scientific journal and should exercise that power judiciously.
It is considered unethical conduct of the authors: to present non-existent data or facts, forged documents, deliberately distorted data and ideas or texts of others without authorship; omit author who participated in the paper; include author who did not participate in the paper; falsifying publication status. It is considered unethical conduct of the referees: to falsify or issue a lying opinion; delay the opinion; steal ideas or text from the manuscript. It is considered unethical conduct of editors: to forge opinion; lie to the author about the evaluation process; steal ideas or text from the manuscript.
