Like every scientific journal that uses the peer-review system, Psykhe receives the valuable collaboration of several academics and researchers from institutions of different latitudes. All of them accept unselfishly to evaluate in the double-blind system the articles that are sent to them for their review. Our editorial team recognizes the work of each of them, along with that of the Editorial Committee members. Without the contribution of the reviewers, maintaining a journal of quality would be impossible. The names of the reviewers who contributed during 2018 are indicated below. We think that the quality of the journal, to a large extent, depends on the contribution of time and expertise from those who are named.
