Abstract

The popularization of science is essential to consolidate academic dialogue and scientific-technical development. Now, much of the research that is done and disseminated does not produce the expected impact since the means of dissemination are not the most appropriate in some cases. The purpose of this work is to review the selection criteria for scientific journals in order to submit articles for publication. Thus, it proposes a series of indicators that guide the selection of a journal that meets the best conditions in the field of visibility, access, impact and quality of information.
