Summary
Empirical articles are familiar to students and researchers because they read and write in their college courses or their professional careers. These articles are also challenging and difficult to write well and publish in good journals because writing and publishing them requires not only various research skills (e.g., design, review, method, data analysis) but also the integration of these skills in one empirical article. Furthermore, writing and publishing empirical articles are useful and rewarding because a good empirical article might have empirical, theoretical, methodological, and practical contributions to knowledge. In this chapter, we have shown students’ intuitive thoughts, presented four real life cases (Yusel, Zaro, Robert, and Sheila and Feng), and discussed three core concepts (description research, practice-embedded research, and replication research) and two reporting standards (quantitative and qualitative). It ends with three practical suggestions, including finding highly publishable topics, understanding the diversity of empirical articles, and follow the report standards.
