[스크랩] Ten simple rules for structuring papers

항상 논문 쓰는 것에 고통 받는 1인으로써, 참고하기 좋은 자료가 있어서 정리하는 의미에서 포스팅을 남깁니다.

Fig 1. Summary of a paper’s structural elements at three spatial scales: Across sections, across
paragraphs, and within paragraphs. Note that the abstract is special in that it contains all three elements (Context, Content, and Conclusion), thus comprising all three colors.
[Ten simple rules for structuring papers]
Principles (Rules 1–4)
- Rule 1: Focus your paper on a central contribution, which you
communicate in the title - Rule 2: Write for flesh-and-blood human beings who do not know your
work - Rule 3: Stick to the context-content-conclusion (C-C-C) scheme
- Rule 4: Optimize your logical flow by avoiding zig-zag and using
parallelism
The components of a paper (Rules 5–8)
- Rule 5: Tell a complete story in the abstract
- Rule 6: Communicate why the paper matters in the introduction
- Rule 7: Deliver the results as a sequence of statements, supported by
figures, that connect logically to support the central contribution - Rule 8: Discuss how the gap was filled, the limitations of the
interpretation, and the relevance to the field
Process (Rules 9 and 10)
- Rule 9: Allocate time where it matters: Title, abstract, figures, and
outlining - Rule 10: Get feedback to reduce, reuse, and recycle the story
