EDITORIAL ORIENTATION AND
PUBLICATION RULES
I - Editorial guidelines and general information
The Jornal de Psicanálise is a journal that welcomes papers which contribute to psychoanalytic
education. Education is considered in a broad sense, dealing not only with specific psychoanalytic
knowledge but with different cultural contributions which sustain the reflection on man in the
contemporary world. Thus its editorial approach considers different theoretical and technical
conceptions in psychoanalysis, as well as the possibility of dialoguing with other fields in the
science of man.

4 - Text
4.1 - References in the text
4.1.1 - Reference of authors in the text
References in the text are given by citing the author’s surname followed by the year of the first
publication in round brackets. If two co-authors are cited in the text, both names should be cited,
linked by an “e” in case the text is written in Portuguese, by a “y” in case the text is written in
Spanish, while in English the surnames should be linked by the word “and” or by the symbol &
when authors are quoted in round brackets, e.g., Pessanha and Forones (2003) or (Pessanha &
Forones, 2003).
If three to five authors are cited, all authors’s names should be cited the first time they appear in the
text, while in subsequent references only the first author’s name is required, followed by “et al”. For
example,
First citation:
Azevedo, Menezes e Meyer (1999) or (Azevedo, Menezes & Meyer, 1999).
Subsequent citations:
Azevedo et al. (2005) or (Azevedo et al., 2005).
In the list of references at the end of the paper all authors must be cited.
If six or more authors are cited, the surname of the first author followed “et al.” must be used, e.g.,
Bicudo et al. (1967) or (Bicudo et al., 1967).
In the list of references at the end of the paper, the surname and initials of the first six authors
should be cited, while in case of subsequent authors the “et al.” expression should be used. E.g.:
Bicudo, V. L., Marcondes, D., Uchôa, D. de M., Gill, M. J, Melsohn, I., Paiva, L. M. de et al.
(1967). Édipo Rei: comentários sobre a peça Édipo Rei. Revista Brasileira de Psicanálise, 1(2),
218-239.
When various authors are cited for the same idea, the alphabetical order must be observed according
to the surnames. E.g., Badaines (1976), Biller (1968, 1969) or (Badaines, 1976; Biller, 1968, 1969).
When there are citations of authors with the same surname, the initials of their prenames, should be
indicated. E.g., M. M. Oliveira (1983) e V. M. Oliveira (1984) or (M. M. Oliveira, 1983; V. M.
Oliveira, 1984).
Documents by the same author with different dates of publication must include the surname of the
author and the years of publication should be chronologically pointed out. E.g., Merleau-Ponty
(1942, 1960, 1966) or (Merleau-Ponty, 1942, 1960, 1966).
To identify texts by the same author and the same year of publication a small letter after the year of
publication should be used. E.g., Rogers (1973a, 1973b, 1973c) or (Rogers, 1973a, 1973b, 1973c).
Documents in which the author is an institution must be indicated by the full name of the institution
and acronyms should be avoided. E.g., American Psychological Association (2001) or (American
Psychological Association, 2001).
4.1.2 - Citations of informal sources such as classes, conferences, personal communications,
electronic addresses etc.
Include the information in round brackets after the citation. E.g., (Verbal information, September
19, 2003).
4.1.3 - Bibliographical references from original or republished editions
The date of the original publication should be mentioned followed by the consulted edition. E.g.
Freud (1898/1976) or (Freud, 1898/1976).
4.1.4 - Textual excerpts
Literal excerpts from a text, should be indicated by inverted commas followed by the surname of
the author, date of the publication and page number. When the quotation has forty words or more, it
must be presented in a separate paragraph in small print, with no inverted commas and with a left
margin of five spaces and no right margin. The excerpt must be written in small print.
In a testimonial citation or in an interview transcription, the speech should be presented in italics
and the text should be presented following the orientation above.
4.1.5 - Indirect citations
Citations in which the ideas appertain to other sources, the expression “as cited in” should be used.
E.g. According to Matos (1990) as cited in Bill (1998) or According to Matos (1990, as cited in
Bill, 1998).
In the references at the end of the paper, list only the consulted text, for instance, (Bill, 1998).
4.1.6 - Citations in press
The surnames of the author should be mentioned followed by no prelo. E.g., (Magdaleno Jr., no
prelo) or Magdaleno Jr. (no prelo).
When the text is written in English, use the expression in press.
4.1.7 - Citation of an electronic source
Citation from an electronic source should preferably be indicated in parentheses immediately after
the information. E.g. (www.bvs-psi.org.br).
Electronic addresses are not required in the final references.
4.1.8 - Punctuation and orthography in the cited text
In a cited text, the spelling and punctuation must be identical as used by the author in the consulted
document.
4.2 - Footnotes
Footnotes should be kept to a minimum, however, when necessary they are numbered
consecutively, immediately after the sentence they refer to. They must be on the same page as the
excerpt. The authors mentioned in the citation should be listed in the bibliographical references at
the end of the paper, not in the footnote.
4.3 - Bibliographical references
Bibliographical references must be listed by the surname of each author in alphabetical order, with
the title References.
If more than one work by the same author is cited, the references must be displayed in
chronological order according to the date of publication.

initials.
E.g. Petrópolis, RJ; Campinas, SP; São Paulo; Porto Alegre; Rio de Janeiro.
