Research article: Presents original findings derived from a scientific research process. It is recommended that the manuscript contain the following sections: title, authors with institutional affiliation, location (town, county or state, country) and email address, summary, keywords, abstract, introduction, materials and methods, results and discussion (IMRyD structure), conclusions, acknowledgements, references, tables and figures. 
The text should be between 5,000 and 9,000 words in length, excluding references. A minimum of 40 cited references is required. In duly justified cases, articles exceeding the maximum word limit will be accepted. Wherever possible, open science materials should be published, particularly the dataset.

Review article: These are systematic or narrative reviews that address a specific scientific topic from a critical and reflective perspective. They must analyse, compare and discuss the findings of at least 40 previously published academic articles. These critical and comprehensive syntheses of the literature on a specific topic must: a) formulate a clear research question; b) follow, as far as possible, the PRISMA protocol or other recognised standards (e.g. Cochrane); and c) have the protocol registered and published on OSF. 
The article must be between 5,000 and 9,000 words in length, excluding references. In exceptional and justified cases, longer articles may be considered.
Case report: A publication that describes in detail a single case or a small group of cases in a real educational context, analysing neuroeducation-based interventions, their outcomes and practical applications. It illustrates the application of neuroeducation principles with methodological rigour and relevance for researchers and practitioners. It includes an assessment of impact, limitations and transferability to other educational contexts.

Case report: A publication that describes in detail a single case or a small group within a real educational context, analysing neuroeducation-based interventions, their results and practical applications. It illustrates the application of neuroeducation principles with methodological rigour and relevance for researchers and practitioners. It includes an assessment of impact, limitations and transferability to other educational contexts. Length: between 1,500 and 2,500 words (excluding references).

Short communication: A manuscript presenting preliminary findings, partial results or studies of limited scope, but with significant scientific relevance to neuroeducation. It prioritises the rapid dissemination of novel findings that require prompt publication prior to more extensive studies. Length: 2,000–3,500 words (excluding references).
