In response to recent requirements of national and international databases and indexes where Acta Colombiana de Psicología is indexed, the following information is provided: a) from the publication of Volume16, Number 2, 2013, thanks to the support of the Catholic University, the purchase of the DOI codes was managed (alpha-numeric code that identifies and retrieves an article in the web even if it is located on a server different to the one that housed it at first) and the subsequent incorporation of those codes into the published articles was carried out, b) similarly, from that volume and number, the DOI code was included in the reference of each published article, c) from the publication of Volume 17, Number 1, 2014 the requirement of periodicity at the beginning of a period has been fulfilled. This means that the issue Number 1 of each year will be published and released in the month of January of the respective year and the second number will be released in July of the same year.

We expect to meet new requirements regarding ­publishing features, scientific quality, visibility and implementation of tools to streamline the editorial management processes, as well as updating the website of Acta Colombiana de Psicología.

These come from the University of Guadalajara (Mexico) and the General Hospital of Mexico –Dr. Manuel Gea González, from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (Mexico), the Universidad Miguel Hernández (Spain), the University of Buenos Aires (Argentina), the University of Girona (Spain) and the University of Granada (Spain). Similarly, national articles from the Catholic University of Colombia, the University of San Buenaventura (Bogotá), the Universidad del Rosario (Bogotá) the Universidad Pedagógica Nacional (Bogotá) and the Corporación Impacto Vital (Bogotá).
