Spanish term or phrase: concepto
Buenas tardes,

Estoy traduciendo un documento relacionado con una revista cientifica de una universidad y en el texto a traducir encontré el término "concepto" y a pesar que he investigado un poco al respecto:

http://www.revistaespirales.com/index.php/es/about/editorial...

https://www.jiem.org/index.php/jiem/about/editorialPolicies#...

https://jer.or.id/index.php/jer/about/editorialPolicies

http://jurnal.unpad.ac.id/cosmogov/about/editorialPolicies#p...

... no he podido encontrar un equivalente apropiado de "concepto" en inglés.

El sitio de donde estoy traduciendo es el siguiente:

https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/investigacion_duitama...

El Comité Editorial asignará dos pares evaluadores relacionados con el tema. Los pares académicos serán expertos en la temática del manuscrito y preferentemente externos a la UPTC. El asistente editorial enviará los manuscritos a los pares, junto con el respectivo formato de evaluación, indicando que el tiempo máximo para retornar el **concepto** será de un (1) mes calendario.

4. Una vez recibidos los dos **conceptos** puede ocurrir lo siguiente:

Ambos **conceptos** aceptan el manuscrito sin cambios: en cuyo caso el trabajo pasa a Comité Editorial.

Ambos **conceptos** son positivos pero alguno sugiere cambios: en este caso el material es devuelto al autor de contacto, junto con el concepto de los pares, para la revisión y ajuste del manuscrito.

Uno de los **conceptos** es negativo: en este caso el Comité Editorial designará un tercer árbitro cuyo concepto será inapelable.
Ambos conceptos sean negativos: en este caso el asistente editorial le informará al autor de contacto que el trabajo fue rechazado, adjuntando el concepto de los pares.

Assessment
Explanation:
Según se lee en el texto de origen, el párrafo habla de una evaluación que se va a hacer con respecto de un manuscrito. "Assessment" es otra forma de decir "evaluación". De otra forma, te puedo recomendar que lo traduzcas literal como término definido, explicando la naturaleza del término.

The application process consists of three stages. (1) Applicants will submit a letter of intent to submit a concept proposal, (2) applicants will submit a short ****concept proposal*****, and (3) selected applicants (finalists) will be invited to submit a detailed full proposal. A Selection Committee will evaluate the concept proposals and full proposals, select finalists, and make recommendations for final awards to the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR). The Selection Committee will be composed of experts in disciplines relevant to this RFP and the submitted proposals. NIH conflict screening rules will apply. The list of Selection Committee members, once established, will be posted to ciapm.org.

review


Explanation:
It's referring to to the peer review process, and each reference to “concepto” appears to be a “review”.

Perhaps another way of putting it would be "advice" or "recommendation", based on the following guidelines from Nature magazine:

Manuscripts judged to be of potential interest to our readership are sent for formal review, typically to two or three reviewers, but sometimes more if special advice is needed (for example on statistics or a particular technique). The editors then make a decision based on the reviewers' advice, from among several possibilities:

Accept, with or without editorial revisions
Invite the authors to revise their manuscript to address specific concerns before a final decision is reached
Reject, but indicate to the authors that further work might justify a resubmission
Reject outright, typically on grounds of specialist interest, lack of novelty, insufficient conceptual advance or major technical and/or interpretational problems
Reviewers are welcome to recommend a particular course of action, but they should bear in mind that the other reviewers of a particular paper may have different technical expertise and/or views, and the editors may have to make a decision based on conflicting advice. The most useful reports, therefore, provide the editors with the information on which a decision should be based. Setting out the arguments for and against publication is often more helpful to the editors than a direct recommendation one way or the other.

I think "recommendation" would be my choice here, but "opinion" might also work.

agree  neilmac: My Spanish clients call the perps "reviewers". I love it when they are obviously not native English speakers, but criticise the English anyway "por si las moscas", even when it's flawless :-)

notion of concept


Explanation:
Concepts are statements of ideas, general correspondence to classes of entities, consisting of characteristic features, theoretical conjunctions and philosophical theories, or the meaning of a predicate. A predicate is a common part of a sentence in which something is said about the subject. Concepts are also themes or images, directly intuitive objects of conceived thought.
In work, a concept is a notion or a statement of idea which expresses how something might be done or accomplished as it could become an accepted procedure. In engineering a concept is created as an exercise to demonstrate the technical skills if designers, which is not for mass production.
In the above example it's about the concept of either couples (pairs) or peers, who are members of the same social group. There's a notion of two concepts, accepting the original manuscript without any changes. When both concepts are positive, but another suggests a change, the material is returned for revision and auditing, along with the concept of peers or pairs. When a concept is negative it can be rejected.

(SP:
'Conceptos son declaras de ideas, la correspondencia general a las clases de entidades, que consisten de características, teorías formadas y teorías filosóficas, o el sentido de un predicado. Un predicado es una parte común de una frase en la cual algo se dice sobre el sujeto. Conceptos son asimismo teorías, temas o imágenes con objetos de la intuitiva directiva del pensamiento concebido.
Entre el trabajo un concepto es una noción de una declara o una idea que exprime cómo algo podría hacerse o completarse, porque podría ponerse en un proceso aceptado.
En la ingeniería un concepto está creado como un ejercicio que demuestra las habilidades técnicas o la destreza de los diseñadores, lo cual no es parte de la producción grande.


Example sentence(s):
  • En el ejemplo se trata de los conceptos de los pares, que son parejas o son miembros de un mismo grupo social. Hay una noción de dos conceptos que aceptan el manuscrito original sin cambios.
  • Cuando ambos conceptos son positivos, mientras otro sugiere unos cambios, el material se devuelve para revisiones, junto con el concepto de los pares. Un concepto puede ser renegado cuando es negativo.
