Thank you for your video. The literature review paper is a big challenge for many researchers. It is grateful if you have a video on how to write the literature review paper.
Thanks for comment and suggestion. Review papers can be challenging but fun to write. You might find this video on how to write a literature review helpful: th-cam.com/video/HNJtM-y87HY/w-d-xo.html It focuses on a literature review for a typical research article but the information would also be useful in writing a review paper.
thank you, Karen, another question how the order of authors should be? is the last author important as the last author? in the web of science, they give a weight for first, corresponding, last authors and ignore the rest
Determining authorship order can be complicated, but there are some helpful guidelines. Generally, the first author writes the first draft of the paper (in addition to participating in the research) and usually has the main responsibility for submitting to a journal and overseeing revisions. The last author is sometimes the team leader or principal investigator who conceived the idea and secured funding (and may sometimes be the corresponding author and main contact for journal submissions). Additional authors may be listed in order of their contributions or listed alphabetically; author positions may also be negotiated. If all authors contributed equally, this may be indicated by an asterisk and explanation. It’s a good idea for the research team to agree before the project begins how authorship will be determined and, barring unforeseen events, who will be lead author on each manuscript. Sometimes the author order changes when people’s contributions turn out to be different (for whatever reason) than planned. A student is usually the lead author on papers derived from their thesis or dissertation. Note that many journals now request information about author contributions, which are listed in the published paper. This author information removes some of the mystery about who contributed what. If you look at author contribution statements in journals and compare them to the author order, you will get some insight about how those decisions were made.
@@ScientificWritingwithKarenLMcK thank you so much Karen for your generous answer, I have a systematic review draft can I send it to you to give some suggestions? regards
Highlights are usually three to five statements that convey the main findings reported in a paper. Here is a description of what the publisher Elsevier expects with respect to highlights: www.elsevier.com/authors/tools-and-resources/highlights
From Tunisia, thank you so much for sharing this constructive video.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the helpful suggestions!
Glad it was helpful!
There's certainly a need for content on this question. Every video by Karen L. McKee that I've watched has been really constructive.
Thanks for commenting.

Dr. McKee, thank you very much for the video! Is it possible that you can make a video about grant writing?
Yes. I'm working on a series of videos about proposal writing.
@@ScientificWritingwithKarenLMcK Great! Thank you!

How can I distinguish between the highlights and major findings of our research in my manuscript?
Highlights are usually three to five statements that convey the main findings reported in a paper. Here is a description of what the publisher Elsevier expects with respect to highlights: www.elsevier.com/authors/tools-and-resources/highlights
