  • Do you want to write and publish an academic or scientific paper? To get a paper published in a peer-reviewed journal is not difficult. This video will provide you with insights into what to include in each section of the paper and talk you through some of the best practices for writing. This video deals mostly with how to write up the results of quantitative research. The principles, however, apply to qualitative research too (with slightly different content in the methods section). You’ve done a study, you’ve collected and analysed the data. Now it’s time to write it up and get it published.

After watching this video, I can see why it is a waste of time to speculate on results that can change the entire course of the paper with additional variables, etc. I will keep that in mind.

    Another great video Dr. Greg! I'll share it widely with my higher degree by research students who struggle with this and need support in publishing their findings. It'd be great if you could distinguish between the introduction and background - this is something I still have trouble explaining.

    • @gregmartin
      @gregmartin  Před 5 lety +1

      Thanks for the question!! (and say hello to your students in Australia). In terms of the difference between the introduction and background... well.. to be honest, its not entirely clear to me either. I think of them as functionally the same kind of thing really. Perhaps one distinction might be that the introduction tells the reader what question is being addressed and the background provides the reader with information needed to understand the context of the research (what we already know and don't know from the literature). That said, I think that the background could also include background information relative to the study in question (the people, place, problem). I guess you can tell from my answer that I'm no closer to the truth than you are :)

    When Im writing İt is very hard for me to cite. For example, I read a review that collects every parts of papers properly. I think that if I screen the literature I ll find the same information. İt is better to change the words by paraphrasig and citing the same papers that I read from review. It is time consuming, scientists say “ go to main first source= primary source, maybe the review that you read understand wrongly” but I think it is a low probability,
    What if I read and cite from the same review? Instead of reading the whole papers, I can look for the other papers.
