Abstract
Attention to issues of scientific integrity and the dissemination of good research practice have grown in all areas. The purpose of this article is to investigate how the guidelines for authors of Brazilian academic journals in the area of Economics are structured on several topics related to the widely accepted good practices of research. The analysis evidenced the absence of important requirements and even a lack of mention of ethical aspects in research. We have also found that three journals have made great progress in this direction and can serve as a basis for perfecting the whole system. Greater dissemination, both through the adoption of more explicit policies by journals and the incorporation of ethics in research in undergraduate and postgraduate programs have the potential to contribute to the dissemination of good research practices and consequently to the improvement of the quality of Brazilian research in Economics.
