Revista Cultura Científica is an international, peer-reviewed scholarly journal published by Scientific Culture Press, Valletta, Malta. The journal is dedicated to advancing scientific culture through the publication of original research, critical scholarly analysis, and interdisciplinary contributions that strengthen understanding across the basic, social, human, and applied sciences.
The journal provides an academic platform for researchers, scientists, educators, professionals, and institutions to communicate their findings, exchange ideas, and contribute to the continuing development of scientific knowledge. Its publishing philosophy recognizes that meaningful research contributes not only to the advancement of individual disciplines but also to education, technological progress, cultural understanding, and society.
Building on a history of Spanish-language scholarly publication dating to 2001, Revista Cultura Científica has continued to develop its international orientation. Beginning in January 2026, the journal adopted English as the publication language for new articles, with the objective of facilitating wider academic communication and participation across geographical and disciplinary boundaries. Its earlier Spanish-language publications remain part of the journal’s scholarly record.
The journal transitioned to an exclusively online publication model in September 2026, reflecting its commitment to accessible digital scholarly communication and the efficient dissemination of academic research.
Through its interdisciplinary orientation, Revista Cultura Científica encourages research that connects theoretical understanding, scientific investigation, technological developments, and practical applications. It recognizes the importance of studies addressing both regional realities and broader international challenges.
Scientific Culture Press supports the journal’s commitment to editorial independence, responsible peer review, research integrity, open access, and respect for scholarly contributions.
Aims and scope
The principal aim of Revista Cultura Científica is to promote the creation, evaluation, and dissemination of reliable scientific knowledge while encouraging constructive dialogue among disciplines and between research and society.
The journal welcomes scholarly contributions that advance understanding, introduce relevant methodologies, examine established theories, provide credible empirical evidence, or offer critical perspectives on issues of scientific, educational, technological, cultural, or social importance.
Its academic scope encompasses the basic sciences, applied sciences and technology, health and life sciences, social sciences, human sciences, and humanities. The journal particularly values contributions demonstrating clear scholarly relevance, methodological rigor, and an identifiable contribution to scientific knowledge.
Basic sciences include mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, earth sciences, and environmental sciences. Research in these disciplines may address fundamental scientific questions, theoretical developments, experimental findings, and analytical methodologies that contribute to a deeper understanding of natural phenomena.
Applied sciences and technology include engineering, computer science, information and communication technologies, data science, materials science, agriculture, energy systems, industrial processes, and technological innovation. The journal welcomes research examining scientific applications, technical improvements, emerging technologies, and their implications for professional practice and societal development.
Health and life sciences cover public health, epidemiology, biological investigations, health-related research, and relevant biomedical studies. Contributions should demonstrate methodological soundness, appropriate ethical compliance, and clear relevance to the journal’s academic objectives.
Social sciences encompass education, sociology, economics, management, public policy, regional development, and related disciplines. Research may investigate social processes, educational practices, institutional development, socioeconomic change, governance, and the relationships between scientific knowledge and contemporary society.
Human sciences and humanities include the history and philosophy of science, scientific communication, language, culture, ethics, and the relationship between society and technological change. These contributions can provide important perspectives on the production, interpretation, application, and social significance of knowledge.
The journal also encourages interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research concerning sustainability, environmental challenges, climate change, scientific education, regional development, technological transformation, community well-being, and other topics requiring the integration of different scientific and academic perspectives.
The inclusion of multiple disciplines does not remove the requirement for a clearly defined research question, an appropriate methodology, reliable evidence, and a meaningful scholarly contribution. Manuscripts are considered according to their relevance to the journal’s aims and scope rather than solely on their general disciplinary classification.
Revista Cultura Científica considers original research articles, review articles, theoretical and methodological contributions, reflection and perspective papers, brief research communications, technical notes, and editorials, subject to the journal’s author guidelines and editorial policies.
The journal seeks to publish work that encourages further investigation, informs academic discussion, supports scientific understanding, and strengthens the relationship between research and its wider intellectual and societal context.
Editorial standards and open access publishing
Revista Cultura Científica recognizes that the credibility of scholarly publishing depends on independent editorial evaluation, responsible research practices, and transparent communication of publication requirements.
The journal follows a single-blind peer-review process, in which reviewers know the identities of authors while the identities of reviewers remain confidential.
Submitted manuscripts undergo an initial editorial assessment to determine their relevance to the journal’s scope, completeness, scholarly quality, and compliance with essential submission and publication ethics requirements.
Manuscripts considered suitable for further evaluation are referred to appropriately qualified academic reviewers. The journal normally seeks assessments from at least two external reviewers, with additional expertise obtained when the interdisciplinary nature or complexity of a submission requires it.
Reviewers examine the originality and significance of the research, the appropriateness of the methods, the validity of the results and interpretations, the quality of the presentation, and the manuscript’s contribution to its field.
Editorial decisions are based on the academic merits of submissions, reviewer recommendations, the journal’s established standards, and relevant ethical considerations. Manuscripts may be accepted, returned for revision, or rejected following the applicable editorial procedures.
The journal is committed to maintaining editorial independence and expects authors, editors, and reviewers to uphold the principles of research integrity, responsible authorship, accurate citation, confidentiality, and disclosure of relevant competing interests.
Research misconduct, including plagiarism, fabrication or falsification of data, misleading presentation of findings, inappropriate authorship practices, and manipulation of the scholarly evaluation process, is inconsistent with the journal’s publication ethics policies.
Scientific Culture Press recognizes the importance of correcting the scholarly record when substantial errors or ethical concerns are identified after publication. Such matters are addressed through the journal’s applicable editorial and publication ethics procedures.
