    I have never subscribed and set 'all' notifications on any channel ever until now. Andy, may I be informal 🤭, I cannot thank you enough for your information and true mentorship on this journey along the information highway. Beyond that I am so grateful for your humor and practicality. It's akin to hanging out with a friend. Although you are unaware, we regularly have coffee on Saturday mornings. In closing, I am here and continue to come back because of your integrity. Thank you for your work, gifts, and time 🙂.

    Thank you for this video. I just received feedback from my supervisor saying that my thesis needs improvement as it is too informal.

    Do you have any advice for turning a thesis to a journal article to publish?

    Err.. `data' is the plural of `datum', so it should be "data were collected over a period of six months."

      In academic writing data is mostly used as a collective noun, like team, family or group, and thus takes a singular verb.

    One journal rejected my research article with comments, should I revise and submit it back?

    • @inveele
      @inveele 2 дні тому +3

      Usually a rejection means the door is closed for that paper and you should try elsewhere. If they wanted you to resubmit, the paper would get a "major revision" instead. Resubmitting after a rejection is rare and can be off-putting, thread very carefully.

      @@inveele I disagree. Our group had quite a few reject and resubmit papers. It just means that your revisions probably aren't done very quickly and are quite extensive. But as long as your revision actually adresses all the points a reviewer makes there's hardly any reason to reject it again.

    • @DrAndyStapleton

      If you can address the comments and prove to the editor that you've updated the article enough - it may be worth testing the journal again.

      @@llbodlearning8591 It may be worth for your PI to write the chief editor of the journal. It's a bit unorthodox but can help.
      If you really adressed all the initial concerns of the reviewer but they just keep piling up new demands you can have a discussion about how reasonable they're being.
      Also, if it's just a low-medium impact journal there is a limit to how much data they can expect for the exposure you're getting there.

    If I provide a paragraph that I wrote to ChatGPT for revision or grammar checking, will the result be considered plagiarism?, because I used AI to check my paragraph, and it has made some changes or added new words.

    • @AlphaCrystal21

      Nope! Because the original idea is your idea, you're not considered plagiarising off of ChatGPT. Have a great day, mate :)

    I disagree on the active voice. To me, an academic article sounds more formal and professional if it uses passive voice.

    • @mehtapcaglar
      @mehtapcaglar День тому +2

      it mostly depends on the field and the epistemological/ontological perspective the researcher choose.

      @anneshleah3626 День тому

      In any work where actual physical experiments are described, I tend to expect the passive. On the other hand, in Math and Computer Science (to varying degree) active voice is fairly popular, and imho makes the whole thing much more engaging
