If the manuscript is submitted without the report, the journal will notify the author of the need to send it and archive the submission. Travessias will review the submitted report and reserves the right to submit the manuscript for software review even if the report has been attached by the author." I declare that I am aware of this and will attach, in item 2. Transfer from the manuscript, as a supplementary document - CopySpider Report - the report of the analysis of my manuscript (PDF or html).

  • 5) Statement:
    I declare that the submitted document does not contain plagiarism, that direct and indirect quotes are duly referenced and that in the manuscript there are no texts written by an artificial intelligence system, pretending to be texts of their authorship (eg, using texts produced by artificial intelligence software in the academic article).

  • 7) As of 2023, authors/authors and/or co-authors/co-authors will only be able to have their articles published after an interval of two issues since the last publication in Travessias. Example: authors whose article was published in v. 17, no. 1 2023 can only have an article published in v. 18, no. 1 2024.
  • 8) Cover Letter - This document will be used to assess the scientific merit of the article during the initial evaluation and will form the basis for determining whether to proceed with the review process.
