This article provides a chronological account of the South African Journal of Science (SAJS) from its inception in 1903 up to the present. This approach clarifies the shifts in emphasis and purpose as the Journal moved through changing publishing structures. Over the course of a century, the SAJS evolved from a publication that included both lay and professional contributions into a formal professionalised scholarly journal while retaining its accessibility Originally appearing as the Report of the South African Association for the Advancement of Science (S2A3), for many decades the content presented the work of people with scientific interests, as reflected at the Annual Meetings of the S2A3 convened at various locations around southern Africa. Its objective was to serve as a means of communication between scientific workers in all fields and at different levels and not to restrict itself to publishing erudite original findings alone. A further aim was to communicate interesting evidence-based knowledge to the general public, thereby linking science to broader society From those beginnings, the article traces the numerous changes in format, regularity quality and financing over a century As science and scientists became more formalised in South Africa, editorial disciplines were introduced, and higher quality contributions were solicited. Financial considerations thrust the Journal under different publishing umbrellas. Authors became more professional and disciplined in their publications. This article chronicles the development of the SAJS into the open-access scholarly multidisciplinary journal it is today SIGNIFICANCE: This work contributes to the history of scientific publishing and scientific institutional history in South Africa. Previous literature in the field of the history of science has made use of contributions to academic journals as sources, but this article on the South African Journal of Science shifts attention to the publication itself to focus on South Africa's most important multidisciplinary journal. Its partnership with Nature is significant and not generally known. Moreover, this article creates opportunities for further research within the field of colonial and imperial science, nationalism, professionalisation, and links between South African scholarly journals and those published elsewhere.

Abstract: The Arte de la Lengua General del Reyno de Chile is a cultural object that, like every printed book, constitutes at the same time an intellectual creation and a material product. It is made up of two inseparable dimensions, one internal, which includes the cognitive-intellectual and graphic-linguistic strata and another external dimension, made up of the physical-material stratum that is, ultimately, the product of the intervention of all the agents involved in the publishing business. Precisely, beyond the author, the interventions of editors, printers and booksellers were decisive for the material configuration of the ancient book. The analysis of the material aspects of the Arte from the direct observation of an original copy reveals particularities in the composition and typographic printing that, together with the consideration of certain passages of the text, allow us to verify that Febrés, beyond the authorship, took care of some problems associated with material aspects of publication that generally depended on decisions made by editors or printers. This is how it provides concrete data and even gives advice to the reader to achieve a better reception of its printed work, taking into account the deficiencies that it presented at a material level related to the layout on the page or the quality of printing, issues that show the conditions of unfavorable production conditions to which the Lima printing presses of the 18th century were subjected.

Resumen: El Arte de la Lengua General del Reyno de Chile (en adelante Arte) es un objeto cultural que, como todo libro impreso, constituye al mismo tiempo una creación intelectual y un producto material. Está conformado por dos dimensiones indisociables una interna, que comprende los estratos cognitivo-intelectual y gráfico-lingüístico y otra dimensión externa, que comprende el estrato físico-material que es, en definitiva, producto de la intervención de todos los agentes involucrados en el negocio editorial. Precisamente, más allá del autor, las intervenciones de los editores, impresores y libreros eran determinantes para la configuración material del libro antiguo. El análisis de los aspectos materiales del Arte a partir de la observación directa de un ejemplar original revela particularidades en la composición e impresión tipográfica que, junto a la consideración de determinados pasajes del texto permiten comprobar que Febrés, más allá de la autoría se ocupó de algunos problemas asociados con aspectos materiales de la publicación que generalmente dependían de las decisiones tomadas por editores o impresores. Es así como proporciona datos concretos e incluso brinda consejos al lector para lograr una mejor recepción de su obra impresa, habida cuenta de las carencias que presentaba a nivel material relacionadas con la puesta en página o la calidad de impresión, cuestiones que evidencian las condiciones de producción desfavorables a las que estaban sometidas las imprentas limeñas del siglo XVIII.

RESUMEN Introducción: El suicidio es un complejo problema de salud pública global. La guía colombiana de práctica clínica es un insumo relevante para su prevención, diagnóstico y tratamiento. El objetivo es evaluar la calidad metodológica, la credibilidad y la aplicabilidad de la guía de práctica clínica colombiana sobre la conducta suicida. Métodos: Un grupo académico de 12 evaluadores se estandarizó para la valoración de la guía y sus recomendaciones mediante los instrumentos AGREE-II y AGREE-REX. Las valoraciones se dieron en el intervalo de 0,0-1,0, con 0,7 como punto de corte para apropiada calidad. Resultados: La valoración global del AGREE-II fue >0,7 en las dimensiones «alcance y objetivo» (0,86), «claridad de la presentación» (0,89), «aplicabilidad» (0,73) e «independencia editorial» (0,89). Los menores puntajes fueron para «participación de los implicados» (0,67) y «rigor en la elaboración» (0,69). Con el AGREE-REX los resultados en todas las dimensiones estuvieron por debajo de 0,70, lo cual indica menores calidad e idoneidad de uso. Conclusiones: El proceso de adopción de la guía colombiana sobre conducta suicida fue un proceso riguroso en lo metodológico, en tanto que las recomendaciones de práctica se valoraron como de baja aplicabilidad por el escaso sustento en evidencia local. Se requiere fortalecer la generación y la síntesis de evidencia en el país para dar más soporte y aplicabilidad a las recomendaciones de práctica.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Suicide is a complex, global public health problem. The Colombian clinical practice guideline provides relevant input for its prevention, diagnosis and treatment. The objective was to evaluate the methodological quality, credibility and applicability of the Colombian clinical practice guideline for suicidal behaviour. Methods: An academic group of 12 evaluators was established to assess the guide and its recommendations in a standardised way, using the AGREE-II and AGREE-REX instruments. The evaluations were given in the range of 0.0-1.0 with 0.7 as a cut-off point for appropriate quality. Results: The global assessment of the AGREE-II was greater than 0.7 in the dimensions: "scope and objective" (0.86), "clarity of presentation" (0.89), "applicability" (0.73) and "editorial independence" (0.89). The lowest scores were for "participation of those involved" (0.67) and "rigour in preparation" (0.69). With the AGREE-REX, the results in all dimensions were below 0.70, which indicates lower quality and suitability for use. Conclusions: The adoption process of the Colombian guideline for suicidal behaviour was a rigorous methodological process, while the practice recommendations were valued as of low applicability due to low support in local evidence. It is necessary to strengthen the genera-tion and synthesis of evidence at the national level to give greater support and applicability to the practice recommendations.

Abstract The Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, published since 1925, is the most influential dermatological journal in Latin America, indexed in the main international bibliographic databases, and occupies the 50th position among the 70 dermatological journals indexed in the Journal of Citations Reports, in 2022. In this article, the authors present a critical analysis of its trajectory in the last decade and compare its main bibliometric indices with Brazilian medical and international dermatological journals. The journal showed consistent growth in different bibliometric indices, which indicates a successful editorial policy and greater visibility in the international scientific community, attracting foreign authors. The increases in citations received (4.1 ×) and in the Article Influence Score (2.9×) were more prominent than those of the main Brazilian medical and international dermatological journals. The success of Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia in the international scientific scenario depends on an assertive editorial policy, on promptly publication of high-quality articles, and on institutional stimulus to encourage clinical research in dermatology. 1925 America databases th 7 Reports 2022 article community 4.1 41 4 1 (4. × 2.9× 29 2 9 (2.9× highquality high quality articles dermatology 192 202 4.

Abstract:Research training is fundamental to the quality of higher education. It is from this conception that formative research is inherent in the curricula of professional training in the various areas of knowledge, thus contributing to the purposes of the teaching activity, and offering the student the possibility of acquiring a set of research skills and competencies, aimed at promoting the development of theoretical knowledge in the exercise of academic activity. Formative research, being a non-improvised process, must also be very clear about the standards that allow demonstrating that students have effectively developed knowledge and research skills; in this way, the evaluation systems in the region consider within their structure a set of aspects to be evaluated that allow evidencing the development of formative research in higher education institutions. This scientific editorial systematically analyzes the models of evaluation of distance and online education at the regional level, developed and put into practice by evaluation and accreditation agencies, and based on this set of dimensions, characteristics, factors, standards, and indicators, determine through a comparative analysis how the evaluation of formative research in distance higher education in Latin America and the Caribbean is carried out.

Resumo: A formação em pesquisa é fundamental para a qualidade do ensino superior. É a partir dessa con- cepção que a pesquisa formativa é inerenteaos currículos de formação profissional nas diversas áreas do conhecimento, contribuindo, assim, para os objetivos da própria atividade docente, e oferecendo aos alunos a possibilidade de adquirir um conjunto de habilidades e competências de pesquisa que visam promover o desenvolvimento do conhecimento teórico no exercício da atividade acadêmica. A pesquisa formativa, por ser um processo não aprimorado, também deve ser muito clara quanto aos padrões que permitem demonstrar que os alunos efetivamente desenvolveram conhecimentos e habilidades de pesquisa; sobesse preceito, os sistemas de avaliação da região consideram em sua estrutura um conjunto de aspectos a serem avaliados que permitem demonstrar o desenvolvimento da pesquisa formativa nas instituições de ensino superior. Este editorial científico analisa sistematicamente os modelos de avaliação da educação a distância e on-line em nível regional, desenvolvidos e colocados em prática pelas agências de avaliação e credenciamento, e, com base nesse conjunto de di- mensões, características, fatores, padrões e indicadores, determina, por meio de uma análise comparativa, como é realizada a avaliação da pesquisa formativa na educação superior a distância na América Latina e no Caribe.

Resumen: La formación en investigación es fundamental en la calidad de la educación superior. Es desde esta concepción que la investigación formativa se encuentra inherente en los currículos de formación profesional de las diversas áreas del conocimiento, contribuyendo de esta forma a los fines propios de la actividad docente, y ofreciendo al estudiante la posibilidad de adquirir un conjunto de habilidades investigativas y competencias, orientadas a promover el desarrollo de los conocimientos teóricos en el ejercicio de la actividad académica. La investigación formativa, al constituirse en un proceso no improvisado, debe también tener muy en claro cuáles son los estándares que permiten demostrar que efectivamente los estudiantes han desarrollado los conocimientos y las habilidades investigativas; bajo este precepto, los sistemas de evaluación de la región consideran dentro de su estructura un conjunto de aspectos a evaluar que permiten evidenciar el desarrollo de la investigación formativa en las instituciones de educación superior. El presente editorial científico analiza de manera sistemática los modelos de evaluación de la educación a distancia y en línea a nivel regional, desarrollados y puestos en práctica por las agencias de evaluación y acreditación, y con base en este conjunto de dimensiones, características, factores, estándares e indicadores, determinar mediante un análisis comparativo cómo se realiza la evaluación de investigación formativa en educación superior a distancia en América Latina y el Caribe.

Abstract The bibliometric analysis of scientific journals provides objective results, of interest to both editors and authors, given that it has become a reliable source of information on scientific production. The objective of this study is to analyze the editorial development of the Pedagogical Reference Magazine, based on its scientific production in its first decade of creation. The bibliometric technique is used as a methodology for the analysis, with the support of software such as EndNote, Bibexcel, Ucinet and NetDraw. Descriptive statistics are applied for the quantitative analysis of the data obtained. The results show the analysis carried out based on 11 indicators: growth in publications; growth of referees and authors; visibility in national and international indices; publications by sections, countries, institutions, and languages; scientific production by authors, collaboration between authors and most published topics. As a result, a set of actions is proposed aimed at raising the quality of the scientific journal and its editorial growth.

Abstract Although the public debate on the quality of journalism and media responsibility and accountability efforts is not novel, the recent online and digital transition context has facilitated the emergence and expansion of new forms of media responsibility and monitoring of the quality of journalistic information. This study draws on a literature review to explore the relationship between media accountability and the quality of journalism while also examining how new forms of media responsibility could enhance information quality. Three facets of this relationship are emphasised: accountability as a dimension or hallmark of media quality, accountability as a mechanism for controlling or assessing the quality of journalism, and accountability as a space for defining the quality of news information. Additionally, this paper presents and discusses findings from an exploratory study mapping and analysing the level of implementation of digital responsibility and accountability mechanisms of six Portuguese editorial projects. The mapping of instruments highlights the heterogeneous reality and potential underlying the adaptation of conventional responsibility models to online formats, as well as underscores the mandated nature of media accountability and transparency processes in the Portuguese media. The analysis of the level of implementation of these mechanisms indicates asymmetries in their application.

Resumo Embora o debate público sobre a qualidade do jornalismo e esforços de responsabilização e de prestação de contas por parte dos média não constituam um fenómeno contemporâneo, o novo contexto online e de transição digital possibilitou o surgimento e a expansão de novas formas de responsabilização dos média e de monitorização da qualidade da informação jornalística. Com base na revisão da literatura, busca-se desenvolver uma reflexão sobre a relação entre accountability dos média e qualidade do jornalismo, assim como sobre o potencial de novos formatos de responsabilização dos média na promoção da qualidade da informação. São sublinhadas três vertentes dessa relação: a accountability enquanto dimensão ou marca da qualidade dos média; a accountability enquanto modo de controlo da qualidade do jornalismo; e a accountability enquanto espaço de definição da qualidade da informação noticiosa. Simultaneamente, são apresentados e discutidos os resultados de um estudo exploratório de mapeamento e de análise do nível de implementação de mecanismos digitais de responsabilização e prestação de contas de seis projetos editoriais portugueses. O mapeamento de instrumentos reflete uma realidade heterogénea e um potencial subjacente à adaptação de modelos convencionais de responsabilização para formatos online, assim como um paradigma mandatado dos processos de accountability e de transparência dos média portugueses. Já a análise do nível de implementação de vários destes mecanismos de responsabilização sugere assimetrias na sua aplicação.

Abstract This article addresses the quality of journalism from a strategic perspective (Paladini, 2005), according to which quality is an organisational effort that integrates external conditions and demands with internal actions, from planning to final product delivery. In order to implement this perspective, it will be necessary to think about quality in journalism beyond the concept mainly focussed on product evaluation towards a concept based on the development of quality management systems (QMS). The QMS is a set of integrated actions that aligns assessment with editorial management guidelines, production processes and products. The implementation of this proposal requires investment in innovation in two complementary movements to develop: (a) a QMS for journalistic organisations, which contains assessment methods with metrics for outcomes and editorial management models, processes and products that incorporate the assessment methods and their metrics; and (b) computerised systems capable of enabling the implementation of the QMS using the technological resources available, in terms of structured journalism, exploiting the potential of digital journalism in databases. The strategic approach to quality in journalism is not attainable with the know-how currently available in the sector. Investment in applied research and experimental development in journalism is crucial to fostering editorial and technological innovation to produce the transformation required to craft a new journalistic intelligence that bolsters credibility with quantifiable editorial quality data and ensures the sector’s long-term sustainability.

Resumo O presente artigo aborda o tema da qualidade em jornalismo a partir de uma perspectiva estratégica (Paladini, 2005), segundo a qual a qualidade é um esforço organizacional que considera condições e demandas do cenário externo articuladas com as ações internas, desde o planejamento até à entrega do produto final. Para implementar essa perspectiva, será necessário pensar a qualidade em jornalismo para além da concepção majoritariamente focada na avaliação do produto, para a concepção baseada no desenvolvimento de sistemas de gestão da qualidade (SGQ). O SGQ é um conjunto de ações integradas, que alinha a avaliação a diretrizes da gestão editorial, processos de produção e produtos. A implementação dessa proposta requer o investimento em inovação, em dois movimentos complementares, para desenvolver: (a) um SGQ para organizações jornalísticas, que contenha métodos de avaliação com métricas para mensuração de resultados e modelos de gestão editorial, processos e produtos que incorporem os métodos de avaliação e suas métricas; e (b) sistemas informatizados capazes de permitirem a operacionalização do SGQ, através dos recursos tecnológicos disponíveis nos termos do jornalismo estruturado, que explora as potencialidades inscritas no jornalismo digital em base de dados. A abordagem estratégica da qualidade em jornalismo não se viabiliza com o know-how disponível hoje no setor. O investimento em pesquisa aplicada e no desenvolvimento experimental em jornalismo será fundamental para gerar inovação editorial e tecnológica, a fim de operar a transformação requerida para a construção de uma nova inteligência jornalística, capaz de elevar a credibilidade, com dados de qualidade editorial monitoráveis e demonstráveis, e garantir a sustentabilidade do setor, no longo prazo.
