Hey Everyone,
I hope your projects are going well. With your papers due soon, it is
time to start thinking about your abstract and paper titles. As Gary
notes in "publication, publication" the abstract and title are two of the
most critical components of your paper. Therefore, in order to improve
your abstracts and title, we require that \emph{everyone} send their
abstract and title over the list, so that it can be critiqued by your
fellow classmates, Gary, Holger, and myself.
For more guidance on what you should include in the abstract and title
check out section 5, part (c) of "publication, publication". Also, now
would be a good time to re-read "publication, publication" as we begin the
final push in the class.
Also, for next week's final class please read the following article:
King, Gary. Christopher Murray, Joshua Salomon, and Ajay Tandon. 2004.
"Enhancing the Validity and Cross-Cultural Comparability of Measurement in
Survey Research" (98) 191-207.
We look forward to reading your abstracts and titles!
Cheers,
Justin
