  • Publishing in science and technology journals is usually time-consuming, which may cause adverse effects on academic careers (get a scholarship, tenure, or promotion) and on the reputation of serial publications themselves. It is also a relevant variable considered by authors when deciding where to publish. Despite the effects of these delays, there are very few systematic studies in Mexico about the time it takes for journals to publish the manuscripts received. To fill this gap, this editorial aspect was analyzed, based on open data from SciELO Mexico, reviewing the time taken for 196 Mexican journals to publish manuscripts, as well as the clear differences between serial publications of a given field of knowledge. The resulting times were compared with similar studies on Anglo-Saxon journals, megajournals, and ‘predators’ journals to locate more clearly the editorial processes in a global environment and to envision the possibilities of a more efficient editorial management.
