Factors to be considered in submitting papers

1, choose the right journal.

Choosing a suitable target periodical is a key step. First, before writing an article, the author should choose a journal covering the subject field according to his own research direction, so as to avoid rejecting the manuscript because the theme of the article does not match the target journal. Then determine the writing method according to the submission requirements of the target journal and the required article form.

2. Ensure that all parts of the article meet the requirements of the journal.

Usually, journals have specific word limits on abstracts, so you should read the author's guide carefully before submitting to ensure that it meets the requirements of journals. The introduction should be brief and to the point. Writing too much will weaken the key content, make the article appear top-heavy, and make mistakes in improperly commenting on the previous work.

3. Potential conflicts of interest

Scientific research should be based on objective principles, so as to provide the most authentic results for the scientific community and readers. All conflicts of interest involved in research projects may affect the fair expression of scientific achievements, so they must be made public and explained.

4. Copyright

If the article directly uses other people's materials, such as textbooks or pictures of other articles, it must be explicitly mentioned. Generally speaking, the direct use of the original text or original picture of the original author requires the authorization of the copyright party (that is, the publishing house). Of course, it is best to contact the author and get his consent, which is also a respect for the author's labor.
