About the Journal

Revista Transdisciplinaria de Estudios Sociales y Tecnológicos (RTEST), from Editorial EXCED, is a multidisciplinary scientific publication that aims to contribute to the development of science in educational institutions of higher education: national, Ibero-American and worldwide.

Revista Transdisciplinaria de Estudios Sociales y Tecnológicos publishes unpublished articles that approach the development of science in an inter and transdisciplinary manner with a quarterly frequency; in the months of January, May and September.

For the selection of the articles, it uses the open review: a novel variant of the traditional process of review by academic peers in which the identities of authors and reviewers are known, the reports issued; and the participation of authors, reviewers and editors is strengthened. All this, in order to guarantee a better quality in the content of the article, based on the Open Access philosophy; where knowledge is free both in its dissemination and in its access.

Based on this philosophy, the journal allows free and immediate access to its content under the principle of making research freely available; and promote the exchange of knowledge in a global and interdisciplinary way.

The intention of the editorial board of the journal is to make this publication an obligatory reference for researchers and teachers who wish to raise their scientific level in all areas of knowledge.
