NOTE: Science and Physical Activity (CIAF) wishes to inform that when the Editor in Chief makes a final decision not to publish an article, either after the external evaluators review or in first instance (without being subjected to peer review) is a firm decision. We would like to emphasize that currently the magazine receives an increasing number of articles for review and only a small proportion can be published. The editorial team of the journal can not enter into negotiations or discussions once the final decision is taken for the manuscript. The editorial decision is final, and this includes first instance decisions, in which the manuscript has not been subjected to peer review for different reasons, and expressed with the phrase "does not fit scientific profile of the magazine" (examples: if it has been considered that the manuscript does not meet the expected standards, lacks an appropriate methodology, presents conclusions that do not contribute to the scientific debate, has a low international profile , or simply that the issue is not among the thematic interests that characterizes this journal).

Once the manuscript has been accepted by the reviewers for correction and style before publication.
