Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.

• Originality:

  The manuscript is an original contribution. Please consider that LAJC only accepts submissions of original articles of your own authorship. To contribute reducing research and publication misconduct, all submitted manuscripts will be checked with TurnitIn Anti-Plagiarism Software to detect double-submissions or articles with plagiarized content or copied from the Internet. Any article submitted to LAJC should not have been previously published, neither be under review, nor be accepted for publication in another journal or conference.
  
  If you are submitting an extended version of a published article, please review carefully our Statement of Ethics and Best Publication Practices and Anti-Plagiarism Policy.

• Image Resolution:

  The images in the manuscript must have a resolution of 250 dpi (minimum) and 350 dpi (ideal). All images must have been optimized for inclusion in an electronic document.

• Anonimity:

  This journal uses double-blind review, which means that both the reviewer's and author's identities are concealed from each other throughout the review process.
  
  To facilitate this process, authors need to ensure that their manuscripts are prepared in a way that does not disclose their identity. To assist with this process the key items that need to be observed are as follows:
  
  1. Remove names, affiliations and email addresses.
  
  2. Use the third person to refer to work the Authors has previously published, e.g. replace any phrases like "as we have shown before" with "… it has been shown before [Anonymous, 2020]".
  
  3. In-text citations refered to papers published by the Author MUST be written as "[Anonymous, 2007]".
  
  4. Make sure figures do not contain any affiliation-related information.
  
  5. Remove references to funding sources.
  
  6. Do not include acknowledgments.
  
  7. Remove any identifying information, including author names, from file names and ensure document properties are also anonymized.
  
  If accepted, identifiable information, which was removed for anonimization purposes, must be included by the authors in the camera-ready version before publishing the article. This information MUST include affiliations, email addresses, acknowledgements and/or sources of funding.
