Navigating the Complexities of Publishing Scientific Papers in Sports Science
The journal plays a crucial role in ensuring the correctness of evidence presented in scientific papers. The process of publishing a scientific paper involves adhering to a specific format including abstract, introduction, method, results, discussion, limitation section, and conclusion. Papers are submitted to the editor who then assigns it to an associate editor for further review. Journals are ranked based on citation index with more widely-read journals often being more sensational. The current system prioritizes the number of times a paper is referenced over its methodological quality leading to a flaw in the process. New guidelines suggest grading papers based on transparency, openness, and reporting practices to address this issue and focus on quality rather than popularity.
