How do you determine if
How do you determine if your scientific paper has a structural problem? Often, reviewer comments provide clues but don’t explain what the problem is. In this video, I use eight common reviewer comments to identify structural problems and then explain how to fix them. If you want to jump to a particular reviewer comment, see the time stamps below.
00:00 Intro
01:12 Says the point of your paper is not clear.
02:08 Suggests the paper does not flow well.
02:40 Asks why you focused on the topic.
03:28 Disagrees with your conclusion.
04:12 Criticizes your approach or methods.
05:37 Complains of boring, repetitious, or lengthy results.
06:25 Says your paper is not novel enough.
07:29 Says your writing is choppy.
