Preparing Research Articles Paperback / softback
by Bruce (Professor of Social Work, Professor of Social Work, Florida State University, USA) Thyer
Part of the Pocket Guides to Social Work Research Methods series
Paperback / softback
Description
The art of writing up a completed research project in a format suitable for submission to a social work journal is an ability separate from one's skills as a research methodologist.
It is also an ability that, despite its importance, is often overlooked by research courses and senior-level mentors.
This straightforward pocket guide to Preparing Research Articles steps into the void as an insider's guide to getting published. Drawing on nearly 20 years of experience editing a social work research journal, Bruce A.
Thyer has crafted a candid companion to the journal publishing process, unraveling the mysteries that students - as well as many established researchers - might otherwise stumble over, and as a result their prospectus for future success improve.
Thyer's frank advice on selecting an appropriate journal, handling rejections and revisions, understanding confusing concepts like impact factors and electronic publishing, and avoiding common methodological and formatting pitfalls, constitute a gold mine for the fledging researcher-writer.
