In this interactive workshop, attendees will be first introduced to common pitfalls in manuscript preparation through the presentation of what are common reviewer comments and recommendations. Following this step in the workshop, attendees will be assigned to small groups and engage in two interactive, hands-on activities with senior reviewers. Afterwards, attendees have opportunities to ask questions to editor office including editor, associate editor, deputy editor, and editorial assistant. The information shared, and critical awareness and skills developed in this multi-part, half-day workshop will provide our community of Family Science scholars with tools to improve the quality of their future manuscripts.
Upon completion of the workshop, attendees will:
- Describe common pitfalls in manuscript preparation and related reviewer recommendations.
- Identify common pitfalls and possible corrections across each manuscript section, i.e., Literature Review, Research Questions, Methods, Results, Discussion, and Implications.
- Analyze areas in need of revision in their manuscript writing and describe how to make the necessary corrections to strengthen their research report.
- Understand steps to start developing the capacity to produce manuscripts clearly meeting the high standards set by peer-reviewers and journals.
