Writing Your Article
The Shape of an Article
An article is written in the shape of an hourglass. It begins with broad general statements, progressively narrows down to
the specifics of your study, and then broadens out again to more general considerations. Thus:



This closing statement might be a bit grandiose for
some journals—I’m not even sure what it means—but if
your study is carefully executed and conservatively interpreted,
most editors will permit you to indulge yourself a
bit at the two broad ends of the hourglass. Being dull only
appears to be a prerequisite for publishing in the professional
journals.
The Introduction
The Opening Statements. The first task of the article
is to introduce the background and nature of the problem
being investigated. Here are four rules of thumb for your
opening statements:
1. Write in English prose, not psychological jargon.
2. Do not plunge unprepared readers into the middle
of your problem or theory. Take the time and space necessary
to lead them up to the formal or theoretical statement
of the problem step by step.
3. Use examples to illustrate theoretical points or to
introduce unfamiliar conceptual or technical terms. The
more abstract the material, the more important such examples
become.
4. Whenever possible, try to open with a statement
about people (or animals), not psychologists or their research
(This rule is almost always violated. Don’t use
journals as a model here.)
Examples of Opening Statements:
Wrong: Several years ago, Ekman (1972), Izard
(1977), Tomkins (1980), and Zajonc (1980) pointed to

你的研究小心地被執行和保守地解釋，
大多數的編者將允許你們縱情於你自己
