The research started from the premise that it was necessary to check what the most important criteria for evaluating the management of periodicals. These were grouped into five categories: editorial quality, dissemination, standardization, arbitration procedure and authorship. For each category there are certain indicators, specified according to its definition, implementation and scoring. It was applied in 12 journals in the area and eight reached 80% of the required criteria, and on the results are presented the strengths of all the journals, their characteristics and recommendations for editors and editorial boards.
