Articles published in the journal Culture, Language and Representation undergo a two-round double-blind peer review. Authors who propose their article upload it to the platform without indicating authorship.

The journal management contacts experts in each field (they are sent the title, abstract and keywords) to indicate whether or not they wish to carry out the evaluation report. Reasons for declining to review may include a conflict of interest, not really fitting in with their current field of study, or other. It will never be made public which referee has been responsible for reviewing a particular article. However, the names of the referees will be published on the journal's website in the form of a thank-you note on the journal's website once the volume has been published.

External referees must complete a report form containing the following fields:

1. (a) Acceptance (must indicate: acceptable, acceptable with modifications or not acceptable).
2. b) Formal criteria (Format and typography: style, clarity, conciseness. Language: grammar and syntax; lexical choice; precision in using concepts and terminology structure: organisation of information and structure).
3. c) Content (Summary: purpose, background, method, results, conclusions, level of interest with respect to the subject matter, method, results, conclusions. Clarity and originality of the hypothesis and/or objectives. Relevance to the current field of research. Theoretical basis. Adequacy in the use of data and methods. Accuracy and scientific rigour in the analysis. Relevance of the results and consequences of the theoretical study for the future. Use of up-to-date and relevant literature).
4. d) General (Appropriateness with respect to the range of topics of interest to this journal. General assessment.
5. e) Other comments.
6. f) Possibility of attaching a PDF or WORD file with comments on the article.
7. g) Recommendation (should indicate: accept this submission, publishable with modifications, forward for review, forward to another publication, not publishable, see comments).

The average estimated evaluation time is three weeks, although more time may be offered in special circumstances.

Once the two reports have been received, they are sent to the article’s authors, who must make the relevant changes and send within 15 days: (a) the new article version, including the improvements and (b) an improvement report. These two documents will be sent to the two original referees so that they can produce a new evaluation on the quality of the article and its definitive acceptance, or not, for the next issue of Culture, Language and Representation.
