It is important to have a clear idea about the different types of articles that you can publish in journals. This will help you understand the ways in which you can disseminate your work and identify what kind of article would be suitable for your study. Conducting research in the social sciences, medicine or natural sciences, the ability to distinguish between primary and secondary source material is essential. Basically, this distinction illustrates the degree to which the author of a piece is removed from the actual event being described, informing the reader as to whether the author’s first impressions, or conveying the experiences and opinions of others. Primary scientific publications Scientific knowledge is furthered through the publication of the results of original research projects. These publications, the scientists' own reporting of their original research, are known as primary literature. A research paper is based on original research. The kind of research may vary, depending on your field or the topic, (experiments, survey, interview, questionnaire, etc.), but authors need to collect and analyze raw data and conduct an original study. The research paper will be based on the analysis and interpretation of this data. Since a primary article is the report of a given study, it will include the objective of the research, the methods used, the data and results obtained, a discussion of the results and a list of references to the literature used in the design and analysis of the research. It is important to read primary literature because it provides details of how the research was conducted, includes the data that were collected, and outlines the researcher's own interpretation of the work. Some of the possible types of primary scientific publications are: Original research: These are detailed studies reporting original research and are classified as primary literature. They include hypothesis, background study, methods, results, interpretation of findings, and a discussion of possible implications [1]. Clinical case study: Clinical case studies present the details of real patient cases from medical or clinical practice. The cases presented are usually those that contribute significantly to the existing knowledge on the field. The study is expected to discuss the signs, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of a disease [2].. Clinical trial: clinical trials describe the methodology, implementation, and results of controlled studies, usually undertaken with large patient groups. Clinical trial articles are also long, usually of about the same length as an original research article. Clinical trials also require practical work experience [3]. Another important type of scientific literature is created when other scientists integrate information from the primary literature into review articles or books. These reviews are called secondary literature, and they are useful in providing a broad overview of a field or by providing a synthesis of the ideas of many people.These articles and books may present tables and figures showing data from experiments, but these have always been taken from the primary literature which originally published the results. Some journals publish both primary and secondary articles. The two most important English- language science journals,Natureand Science, both do this. So you will need to carefully read the article to see what kind of article it is. One excellent source of secondary articles only is theAnnual Reviews series, many of which we have in full text. These annual publications cover one field, like biochemistry or genetics. Each volume has from 15 to 30 articles. Each article revised what we know about one topic. The bibliographies can run to a hundred to two hundred or more articles. Some of the possible types of secondary scientific publications are: Review article:Review articles give an overview of existing literature in a field, often identifying specific problems or issues and analysing information from available published work on the topic with a balanced perspective. These are considered as secondary literature and can be a particularly efficient way for early career researchers to begin publishing [4, 5]. Perspective, opinion, and commentary: Perspective pieces are scholarly reviews of fundamental concepts or prevalent ideas in a field. These are usually essays that present a personal point of view critiquing widespread notions pertaining to a field. A perspective piece can be a review of a single concept or a few related concepts. Debates are opinion pieces up to 3500 words in length. They synthesise the research literature in a way that adds important new insights. They should be written in an international context and make one or two key points that are more in the way of opinion rather than fact. Commentaries.A commentary should add a further perspective or point of view to a particularly important research report or learned review. A commentary should be approximately 500-750 words and up to 10 references Book review: Book reviews are published in most academic journals. The aim of a book review is to provide insight and opinion on recently published scholarly books. Book reviews are also relatively short articles and less time-consuming. Conclusion. The types of publications are different in different fields. For instance, a clinical trial is possible only in the field of medicine, while an empirical study is more common in the field of social sciences. It is important to remember that not all journals publish every kind of article. Therefore, most journal publishers provide prospective authors with accurate and specific guidelines for the different articles they publish. Specifications about the types of articles published can be found under the guidelines to authors section on a journal’s website.
