Sumario:This research addresses the editorial practices in terms of visibility carried out byLatin American scientific journals and their influential factors. The applied techniqueof data collection was surveyed. The sample was composed by journals classified inScimago Journal & Country Rank (SJR), all of them associated to five subject categories in the Latin American context: Philosophy, Theology, Law, Political Science and Psychology. The main finding was that Web 2.0 tools are underused by the analyzed journals, we could infer that the positioning of a journal is not directly related with the usage of this kind of technological tools. From the results obtained, it is suggested, as a future research line, the identification of other factors that positively affect the visibility of the journals.
