ILLUSTRATIONS

The number of figures (tables, graphs, images, diagrams) should be a maximum of five per article, except in cases where exceptions must be justified in writing by the author and approved by the journal. Figures must be inserted into the text in the exact location where they should be published. They must include a title above and the source below with the bibliographic reference (author, year, and page number), single-spaced, Times New Roman, size 12.
Figures must also be submitted separately as .jpeg files and numbered sequentially (Figure 1, Figure 2, …).

QUOTES

Quotes with less than 40 words should be incorporated into the text paragraph, between quotation marks. Quotes with more than 40 words should appear without quotation marks in a justified paragraph, with an indent of 1.27 cm from the left margin.

Indirect quotes must contain the ideas of the author of the text, but must also endorse the original ideas of the cited author. Example: Lacan always made clear his position on psychoanalysts who accommodated themselves to the institutional mechanisms of the psychoanalytic schools of that time, with their bureaucracy and questionable rituals (Lacan, 1956/1998).

Only one author: author's surname with only the first letter capitalized, year of publication and page of the cited text. Examples: (Lacan, 1966/1998, p. 23) or Lacan (1966/1998, p. 23).

Two authors: surname of the authors connected by “&” in parenthetical citations and by “and” in the text. Examples: (Alberti & Elia, 2000) or Alberti and Elia (2000).

Three or more authors: surname of the first author followed by “et al.”, without italics, from the first citation. Examples: (Ribeiro et al., 2015) or Ribeiro et al. (2015).

Citation of a citation: is the mention of a document to which one did not have access, but of which one became aware through another work, that is, it refers to the use of secondary sources. In the text, the original author must be indicated, followed by the expression “cited by”, and the author of the work that was read. Example: Goethe (1948 cited by Freud, 1911 [1910]/2012, p. 65) or (Goethe, 1948 cited by Freud, 1911 [1910]/2012, p. 65). In bibliographic references, only the publication consulted should be included.

Undated publications: in works without an identified date, use “n.d.” (abbreviation of “no date”) instead of the year of publication. Examples: (Author, n.d.) or Author (n.d.).

In unpublished publications or unpublished materials: indicate that it is unpublished material, specifying the context (e.g.: unpublished manuscript, presentation, etc.). Examples (Author, unpublished manuscript) or Author (unpublished manuscript). In references: Author, A. A. (year). Title of work [Description of unpublished material]. Institution or context.

Institutional authorship: in the first citation, the name must be written in full. If there is a known acronym, include it in parentheses and use only the acronym in subsequent citations. Examples: in the first citation (World Health Organization [WHO], 2010, p. 123) or World Health Organization (WHO) (2010, p. 123). Example in subsequent citations: (WHO, 2010) or WHO (2010).

Same author with identical dates: when citing several works by the same author, organize them in order of date, separated by commas, and use letters after the year to distinguish the publications. Examples: Freud (1919a/1992, 1919b/1992) or (Freud, 1919a/1992, 1919b/1992).

Reprinted publications: include the original publication date followed by the reprint date. Examples: Lacan (1971-1972/2012, p. 59) or (Lacan, 1971-1972/2012, p. 59).

FOOTNOTES

This resource should be used sparingly, so as not to make reading difficult. Footnotes should only include information considered to be accessory to the understanding of the text. Under no circumstances should endnotes be used. Footnotes should not be used to introduce the original form of citations that appear in the body of the text, nor to introduce source references (except in extraordinary cases).

REFERENCES
Every document cited in the body of the work must appear in the list of references, following the general formatting. The list of references must appear at the end of the work, organized in alphabetical order by the author's surname, followed by the initials of the names and date of publication. They must be formatted with double spacing, and the second and subsequent lines must begin with an indent.
