Author Guidelines

Editorial process: Submission --> Review --> Editorial --> Production.

According to the OJS editorial process, original papers received in accordance with the journal's publication standards go through the editorial, review, and production stages. Therefore, ET follows the double-blind peer review process on an anonymous basis to decide on their acceptance. In this sense, all submissions received by the Editorial Team must be favourably reviewed by two external reviewers selected anonymously by the Editorial Board. Finally, if the article is accepted, it is prepared for final publication in the production phase, where the Associate Editor assists with copyediting.

Style and presentation rules to submit a manuscript:

Please go to the top navigation bar and click on INSOLE OF REFERENCE. A file with the detailed norms of style together with another containing a sample are available. Be aware that the American Psychological Association (APA), Seventh Edition system of citations in text and reference format has to be followed, as indicated in the template provided.

The suggestions for writing academic papers issued by the International Academy of the Study of Tourism are also included: authors are invited to consider them carefully. /https://www.tourismscholars.org/documents/successful_writing_hints.pdf

General overview:

a) Manuscripts must be written in acceptable, scholarly English (US or UK spelling is permissible, but not a combination of both). Neither the Editorial Board nor the publisher is responsible for correcting errors of spelling, grammar and punctuation.

b) To ensure anonymous review, authors should not identify themselves directly or indirectly in their manuscripts. The anonymity of both authors and reviewers will be guaranteed.

c) The paper should be as concise as possible, although not at the expense of clarity. The maximum recommended length is 10.000 words, including all types of tables, figures, illustrations, acknowledgements and references.

d) The font to be used is Times New Roman letter, size 10.

e) The manuscript must have 25 mm (one-inch) margin on all four sides and be written with one and a half line spacing.

f) Separate paragraphs must be indented 5 mm left in the first line.

g) Pages must be numbered consecutively at the bottom centre.

h) If acronyms are used, their full expression should be given at their first occurrence.

i) Electronic submission through the online platform is compulsory. The software for submission is Microsoft Word. For technical support assistance, please contact Ms Eva García: eva.garcia@sc.uhu.es

j) The submission of a paper implies the originality of the work presented, which means that it has not been published already nor submitted anywhere else.

k) It is the authors' responsibility to obtain permission from the copyright owners to use quotations, illustrations, figures and the like from any other source. They are also responsible for completing the Submission and Publication Metadata, including Title (and Subtitle, if any), Abstract, List of Contributors, Keywords and References. If necessary, all these features should be updated at the end of the review process.

l) Manuscripts must not contain libellous connotations.
