economics newcomer, regardless of paper to write dozens of pages, in addition to the anonymous reviewers outside of luck, no one will spend more than five minutes to read. Then a reasonable strategy is to write the greatest degree of saving readers time, the most effective delivery of information. Specifically, I tried to achieve the following goals:
1. If the reader is only ten seconds, he should clearly know what I've done, mainly, what, with what data, where the contribution.
2. If readers have thirty seconds, he should know the above information, based on the argument that I was so, and quickly in three to four page paper to find exactly what he wanted to read.
3. If readers have a minute, he should be able to know that 80% of the thesis, and it seems to be more than two minutes and then take a look.
4. If readers have three minutes, he should be able to accurately know what I'm talking anything about this, know exactly what my approach to my hypothesis. If I were a salesman, I must do in three minutes, said the most important selling point clear, saying `Well, as readers buy, that is another matter.
5. If the reader is anonymous reviewers, have to spend tens of minutes to read the paper, then I have to do to minimize the burden of his reading, do not his old getting mad.
how to achieve these goals? I summed up the experience of you are scattered cattle proposal writing for young people, I just put them into my way of re-expression. These recommendations are valuable, not less than ten times I've read, it is the time of writing the control Gesanchawu out about it, each time harvest. Mankiew proposals collected here,
Heaven and Hell - Qzone log, Blattman collection of some here.
First, if the reader is only ten seconds, he would read ABSTRACT. this thing is extremely important, first of all it is the first paragraph of the paper, the reader attention also focused on this time was, his mind still turning. In general, the readers attention to read three paragraphs scattered about the future, so the first three tricks (above) is very important. Second, it is generally the last paragraph of the paper, the reader is not reading this before deciding to look down, do not continue to read most of the time. ABSTRACT
so all the important contents of the statements put out, can not exceed 150 words. Of empirical papers for this issue to include the study, the use of data, identification, and all the important estimation results, with figures. ABSTRACT
Once I wrote 150 words,
.... This is too silent even in the school room ra, and felt huge satisfaction, simplicity was not, simply can not delete a word more. He then went to submission, of requirements must be 100 words or less, and is submitted online, the page settings dialog box is good, more than 100 words on a red word, that is very stingy. No way, and then rewritten. Delete delete ah, and he just cut down more than 50 words, actually did not feel what the loss. About once seen smug, if forced to look again, rearing, or more than one-third of the water.
to vote out the paper, whether it is of Ye Hao, JMP Ye Hao, should try to write as a result of no water.
Second, if the reader will have 30 seconds, he would visit soon after the paper read ABSTRACT chapter structure, this time how to write the chapter title is very important.
principles are: the chapter headings to convey information, in addition to Introduction and Conclusions, all should have the contents of the title.
example, if a section called If the name Or delete the Another example is writing
estimates, if that part of the title is called There is probably similar to the wording of the contents of To do the same as the title of slides, each title is a direct result of Chen.
words to convey the title to use specific information, so visit again after the heading, the reader should know more specific information, and can find exactly where he was interested in the content, then read on.
If the title is just No one wants to be forced to watch the fine, so people simply do not see.
Third, if the reader has a minute, he should be able to read this paper first sentence of each paragraph. The first sentence of each paragraph should be
specific operation on three points: 1) The first sentence is not firm bedding, and then the second sentence of what HOWEVER turn back. Are not playing hide and seek, there is nothing better to turn to go. The first sentence is a direct expression of the meaning of this paragraph, other contents of this section are details of the first sentence of not more than the contents of the statement; 2) The first sentence must be short and had to use clauses you do not have more than one clause otherwise, no fun; 3) not a single sentence paragraphs. Thesis is not novel, but not all the way to enter the modern poetry.
basically readers to browse over in a minute for each of the first sentence, 80% of the contents of my thesis, he should know, want to read it, read the INTRODUCTION it.
four, if readers have three minutes, then, INTRODUCTION to read all that he has.
this relatively easier, because almost three minutes to read a thousand words, deal with the scope to be much larger. INTRODUCTION from experience how to write a lot, I will not repeat. I personally think the important methods are: 1) not more than three pages; 2) literature as a footnote in the first place is not accounted for, and the second words and sentences are not separated, while a name of a bracket for a while, watching and sticking plasters like , and ugly; 3) the first to write to explain the phenomenon itself, explain how to write, and finally talk about contributions; 4) Do a similar Only lack of confidence or nothing to say only people who have come to a Gesanchawu
Fifth, if the reader is the reviewer, really need to spend tens of minutes to read it, write something good, something short, short little, a little short, short little, and then a little short.
I do not believe this world of Department of Economics, a graduate of Harvard's Re 牛逼 idea is to write smashed smashed, did not save. (
benefit me the most recommendations from Deirdre McCloskey Professor of Writing: finish every sentence is followed, after asking a does not survive, just finished writing that sentence is simply no longer necessary, deleted.
last I find it very useful for writing a thesis proposal from Professor David Romer, can be summarized in five phrases: Just Write! Just Write! Just Write! Just Write! Just Write!
Han Do not dry,
湖南郴州皇家钱柜KTV保安挑断顾客手筋 - Qzone日志, is to write the thesis is written, not thought out.
