Inclusive and gender-neutral language

Global Nursing recommends that published articles use inclusive and gender-neutral language that promotes gender equality in science, as promoted by the European Research Area agenda (ERA: period 2022-2024, with action 5: "Promoting gender equality and fostering inclusion").
In our journal, we understand that not all texts are equally suitable for adapting certain linguistic formulations to the demands of egalitarian language. We are also aware that promoting equality goes far beyond merely morphological aspects. However, we assume, as stated in the Guide for a Bias-Free Language (UAM, 2019), that language has sufficient resources and mechanisms to express what it wants to say, such that "the person producing the message can choose between different forms to express themselves in an inclusive and non-sexist manner, so that language can be an instrument for change" (p. 9).
For more information, we recommend reading the APA inclusive writing recommendations document: https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/bias-free-language
At our journal, we believe that a small effort when writing articles will ultimately represent a great advance for society. Scientific communication cannot remain outside the changes taking place in the society that sustains it.
