研究论文的写作 • APA Guideline • Three types of articles: • Reports of empirical studies • Review articles: problem, summary, relations and gaps, future studies • Theoretical articles
Toward a Research Career • Whom do I want to belong to? • What’s my long term goal? (unique, significant vision) • What’s my current research focus? (promising work) • How is my current work informing my next steps?
Reports of Empirical Studies • Introduction + Literature review • Research questions • Method • Discussion • Conclusions
Principles of Academic Writing • Idea-centered (不是工作汇报) • Understandable: Make your idea transparent to others who may not share the same background. • Critical: Am I sure about what I’m saying? How might others challenge my thinking? How should I address their challenges? (不说连自己都不明白的话;自己都不相信的话) • Fine reasoning chain--connectedness, order, smoothness
Introduction: Background and Define the Research Question(s) • The line of research you want to contribute to? • Progresses? • Gaps?-->focus • The point you want to make? • Research strategies that help you make this point?
Data • Question--construct--measures--data
Discussions and Conclusions • What have I contributed?--findings • How has my study helped to resolve the original problem? • Weaknesses? • What conclusions? Then what?
