Four publications from the field of Special Education were evaluated, those being, Benjamin Constant, Revista Brasileira de Educação Especial, Revista Educação Especial and Espaço, in relation to the formal aspects of each periodical. The conclusions showed that the periodicals analyzed have already achieved some criteria, but there is still work to be done if they are to achieve all criteria described in the work.
