Shooting Reputable Journals
• Competition for space in journals is intense
• Rejection rates vary, depending on the quality of the journal
Shooting Reputable Journals –
Dynamic Capabilities
• Sensing
• Sensing
• Seizing
1. Study their research design and apply it into yours

2. Get familiar with their writing style
3. Find a similar topic or research interests
4. Find the role model, follow his/her writing style
5. Engage discussion through email and other relationship efforts
6. Prepare enough time, resources, focus, and energy for 2-3 years
Major Reasons for Rejection (Philips, 2008)
Poorly prepared
The article not ready, only a draft
The article is too parochial (will not appeal to a wider, international audience)
Poor English (if English is not your first language, seek help)
Technically poor
 Too short or too long (check the article length specified in author guidelines)
 Article is submitted to the wrong journal (material not of relevance to readership)
 Nothing new is stated or found
 Under-theorized Under-contextualized
 Not properly a journal article (e.g. better suited to another form of publication)
Abstract - Why Does It Matter?
 Abstracts have always served the function of "selling" your work.
 On-line search databases typically contain only abstracts; thus, a complete but
concise description of your work could entice potential readers into obtaining a
copy of the full paper.
 It could increase the chance of people taking the time to obtain and read your
complete paper.
Abstract - Components (Koopman, 1997)
1. Motivation
2. Problem statement,
3. Approach,
4. Results,
5. Conclusions
Introduction
 Articles are like dates: first impressions matter.
 The introduction determines whether or not readers will continue reading.
 It provides the interpretive frame that shapes how reviewers read a
manuscript during the review process.
 If reviewers are intrigued by the research question, appreciate its importance,
and understand how the study advances understanding of the topic, they’ll
look for reasons to recommend revision.
 If reviewers are not excited, they’ll find more reasons to reject.
Effective Introduction
1. Who cares? What is the topic or research question, and why is it interesting
and important in theory and practice?
2. What do we know, what don’t we know, and so what? What key theoretical
perspectives and empirical findings have already informed the topic or
question? What major, unaddressed puzzle, controversy, or paradox does this
study address, and why does it need to be addressed?
3. What will we learn? How does your study fundamentally change, challenge,
or advance scholars’ understanding?
• Reconfiguring
1. Quality demands different level of resources, focus, and energy;

2. Find mentor who able to bring you to the next level;
Quantity vs Quality
Select the Field Where You Want to Play
Conclusion
- Writing and publishing a paper is a journey
- The journey is not linear, but parallel and full of

surprise
- Enjoy the journey of knowledge (theoretical)
