This journal is committed to promoting equality between men and women, to giving visibility to the scientific work of women, and to promoting the use of inclusive language free of prejudices associated with race, functional diversity, gender, sexual orientation, beliefs, ideology or socio-economic status.

To this end, it implements the following actions:

• Maintaining a balance in the percentage of women and men on the Editorial Team.
• Compliance with a minimum percentage of 40% of women as reviewers of papers submitted to the journal.
• Inclusion in the journal of the full names of the authors of the works published.
• Use of inclusive language in scientific articles. Inclusive language recognises diversity, is respectful of all people, takes differences into account and promotes equal opportunities. Articles should use language that is free of bias, using terms that avoid stereotypes.
• The rules of the Real Academia Española, which recognises the masculine as an unmarked gender for collective mentions, are also accepted.
• It is recommended to replace the use of the generic masculine with other non-discriminatory terms (such as collective nouns or gender-neutral adjectives), to avoid expressions that perpetuate gender stereotypes and to employ strategies to make language as inclusive as possible, following the UN guidelines for gender-inclusive language.
• Research papers should try to avoid gender biases that use the masculine as a universal referent. In this sense, it is advisable to consult the handbook Gender in Research produced by the European Community, and, where appropriate, to report on gender in research on people, presenting the results disaggregated by sex.
