Many offline students asked me how to sign the academic paper and the author unit. For example, what is the difference between the first author and the correspondent in academic writing? What should you do if your tutor doesn't have any direct guidance and help in the process of writing your thesis and wants to rank high? What do you think if the tutor asks you to hang someone who can't help and guide your thesis? How did your tutor give you a personal feeling in your article, and finally put you in the fourth or even fifth author, while the first three authors made no contribution to the paper at all? Who can taste the feeling of your crying? The above are the substantive problems I often encounter in the process of writing my thesis. Drawing on my experience in 16, today I will tell you about the signature and unit skills in academic writing.
1. Signature purpose and company address
? First, assume social responsibility
The purpose of summarizing or generalizing the daily activities used by human society in academic papers is to guide the subsequent human production activities, which means that it will have a certain impact on production. This influence is two-sided. The good advantage is that you are good to me and everyone, and you can provide competitive advantages in further education, employment and employees. However, when plagiarism, author's conclusions, experimental data, or political and scientific errors occur after the publication of this article, then the signer should take full responsibility, and signing means that the author is willing to bear these responsibilities.
? B, literature retrieval requirements
In the daily document retrieval process (such as Wanfang), there is a retrieval type, that is, it can be retrieved by the author or the author's unit, which will quickly correspond to the documents in a certain field. This can effectively save your time and energy, successfully complete or publish your thesis writing, and improve your academic level.
? C, academic exchanges
The most important function of the author's signature and unit address is the purpose of daily communication. There are two main aspects: one is the communication between journals and authors, mainly about the revision of manuscripts, the issuance of admission notices and the publication of journals by mail; Another purpose is the communication between readers and authors, so as to facilitate further academic discussion, consultation or explanation between later readers and authors. Take an example that happened around me. I have a friend who saw a foreign academic Daniel publish a theoretical article on materials, which has not been studied in this friend's field. Therefore, this friend asked Daniel for advice in the form of a written legacy by email. I didn't expect this Daniel to reply, and under the guidance of Daniel, I solved the problem that bothered my friend for a long time.
What's the difference between a single work and a multi-person joint work?
I believe that students have found that some academic papers now have one author and some have multiple authors. What is the difference? After searching and communicating with friends in the editorial department, there is a reason to write alone and jointly with many people. Let's start with multi-person cooperation. At present, according to my communication with friends in the editorial department of a journal, the author of academic papers must meet the following three requirements at the same time.
? A the author must participate in the structural design, experimental process and theoretical analysis of the paper;
? B the author must also revise the final academic paper;
? The author must agree to the publication of the paper. If you meet the above three points, dear students, you can only sign your name as the author, otherwise you can only write a thank-you letter at the end of the paper, thanking XXXX for its guidance and help in the process of paper XX. Thank you XXX for your help in the experimental stage/material collection stage. When many people have finished writing together, that person alone believes that everyone will understand.
3. What's the difference between a first author and a correspondent?
? I really never paid attention to this problem. Once, when a professor studying in the United States gave me writing guidance, the teacher explained this content as a topic. This is what he taught me:
? The first author is the person who makes the greatest contribution in the process of the paper. Correspondents are usually tutors or scientific research leaders, who are mainly responsible for replying to editors' peer review opinions and answering readers' doubts. Another responsibility is to undertake the social responsibility of this article. To put it simply, if your published paper has some problems that violate the law or morality because of copyright, plagiarism, experimental data, academic theory, etc., then the correspondent in the paper should be punished first, followed by the first author of the paper, and then other authors.
4. How to write the signature?
How to write a Chinese signature? In some journals, you are also required to write your own English name. I have summarized that there are roughly three kinds:
Zhang is Xiao Ming.
First and last names are like Zhang Xiaoming Zhang Xiaoming.
There is a bar in front of the surname, as clear as Zhang Xiaoming.
5. Unit writing?
Write the company address under the signature. The common format is
Unit number, unit name, provincial capital name, city name, postal code.
(1.XXXX co., ltd., Tianjin, 300XXX)
(2) Beijing XXXXXX R&D Center, 100XXX)
It is emphasized here that if you only have one company, don't write the company number. If there is more than one company, write directly by name. Also note that if you are at school, you must write it to a secondary unit, such as XXX College of XXX University; If you are in the company, you can write directly to XX factory of XXX company or XX department of XXX company.
Let's call it a day. I hope it is useful to everyone. I am a teacher, and I am cruel and heartless.
