Aims & Scope

Ibérica publishes research articles, research notes, interviews, forum articles and reviews and is aimed at teachers, scholars and researchers interested in modern languages as applied to academic and professional purposes (LSP). Ibérica is an open access journal available twice a year (per semester): April to September (Spring issue) and October to March (Fall issue). Those manuscripts that report original research outcomes pertaining to LSP and further existing studies in this field shall be considered for publication as research articles or research notes. More particularly, manuscripts whose content matches the following criteria: the presentation and analysis of new and empirical data as regards specialised language and the methodology thereof, the putting into practice of new research methods, or the revision and development of specialised language teaching and learning theories. Dialogues relevant for academia with an internationally renowned scholar in the field of LSP shall be considered for publication as interviews. Reviews of scholarly publications (research books, textbooks and multimedia software) pertaining to LSP and published no more than two years prior to the potential publication date of the review shall be considered for publication as reviews. Journals or conference proceedings shall not be subject to reviewing.
