Author Guidelines

a. General information

Submitted articles must not have been published before. In each case, possible sources of funding for the research whose results are included in the article should be taken into account.

Submitted articles should be prepared in accordance with the editorial guidelines. If the article does not comply with the guidelines it is sent back to the author with information on the need for changes.

The journal accepts articles prepared by students, doctoral students and PhD students (up to 7 years after the defense of the dissertation).

The editors accept articles written in Polish or English

Each submitted article is evaluated by a member of the editorial board. In the case of a positive evaluation, it is forwarded to the review process. In case of a negative evaluation, the author is informed of the reasons for the rejection of the article. The editor may also ask the author to make corrections before submitting the article to the review process.

After receiving a positive review (see review procedure) and/or making corrections by the author accepted by the journal's editorial board, the articles are submitted to the University of Gdansk Publishing House.

The University of Gdansk Publishing House checks the articles with anti-plagiarism software.

The Publishing House of the University of Gdansk appoints a publishing editor who edits the articles and corrects the language. After editing, articles are forwarded to authors for acceptance or rejection of changes. After acceptance of the articles by the authors, the journal issue is published in electronic form (pdf file) and then in print.

The journal is published in open access (Open Access), which means free, universal, permanent and immediate access for any web user to digital forms of data recording and content contained therein (under the CC BY 4.0 International license - - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.en ).

"Ghostwriting", "guest authorship" are manifestations of scientific dishonesty, and any detected cases will be unmasked, including notification of relevant entities (institutions employing authors, scientific societies, associations of scientific editors, etc.).
