Open Access Statement

Open Access (OA) is an international movement aimed at ensuring that anyone worldwide, with an active internet connection, can freely access scientific, academic, and cultural information without economic, technical, or legal restrictions. The open access policy of Tempus Psicológico rests upon the foundational framework of the "BBB" declarations: Budapest (BOAI, 2002), Berlin (2003), and Bethesda (2003).

1. International Regulatory Framework

• The Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI, 2002): Defines open access as the "free availability on the public Internet, permitting any user to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles, crawl them for comprehensive indexing, pass them as data to software, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without financial, legal, or technical barriers other than those inseparable from gaining access to the internet itself".
• The Berlin Declaration (2003): Establishes that authors and patent custodians must grant to all users equally a free, irrevocable, worldwide right of access to a scholarly work, alongside a license to copy, use, distribute, transmit, and display the work publicly, as well as to produce and distribute derivative works in any digital medium for any responsible purpose, subject to proper attribution of authorship.
• The Bethesda Declaration (2003): Defines scientific research as an interdependent process where each experiment is informed by the outcomes of others. Electronic publications offer the opportunity and the obligation to share research results, ideas, and discoveries freely with the scientific community and the general public.

2. Institutional Commitment

The journal Tempus Psicológico publishes research articles, review articles, scientific communications, case studies, and editorials. To formalize Open Access at the collection, journal, and document levels, the platform implements the Creative Commons (CC) system to promote the legal reuse and distribution of indexed materials. Consequently, Tempus Psicológico formally commits to:

• Promoting a common Ibero-American information space.
• Strengthening the quality and international impact of Ibero-American scientific publications.
• Serving as an open showcase that enhances the global visibility of quality scientific production.
• Fostering an inclusive knowledge and information society.
