Publishing Journal Articles
Journal publication and grant writing are two core professional skills for new scholars today. However, systematic training is not typically offered in graduate programs worldwide. This book equips readers with the current scientific knowledge by providing a concise introduction to the science of journal article publication. The overall structure generally matches the curriculum of a graduate course and each chapter features a learning sequence based on Daniel Kahneman's intuitive judgement theory. The volume analyzes the intuitive thoughts of new authors from a variety of countries, uses over fifty real-life cases, and focuses on core concepts from nearly 100 research articles. It provides scientific advice for new authors, junior researchers, and graduate students to publish their scholarly work and advance their academic careers.

‘… Yan here applies pedagogical theory to present the requisite knowledge and skills through a 'research-based learning process.' He not only incorporates case studies, examples from various journals, and figures illustrating concepts and processes, but also has tested each chapter through engagement with students. His advice is applicable for graduate students in all disciplines.’ M. Herr, Choice
