SinoScript生物医学SCI写作教程(五)


【2018 Summer Issue】

Discussion是最难写的部分之一。它之所以难写,是因为这里面最能显示一个作者研究问题的广度和深度。深度就是论文对于提出的问题的研究到了一个什么样的程度,广度指是否能从多个角度来分析解释实验结果。Discussion的部分还要注意保持和Result的一致性,即结果和讨论要一一对应。千万不要出现按讨论的内容可以推出与实验相反的结论这种情形,那证明你的讨论思路压根儿就是失败的。所以,Discussion的文字描述和表达的精确性尤为重要。由于中英文表达的不同,在投稿之前要尽量避免出现表达上的失误。

本期关键词:Result Discussion Conclusion
