Quality time · Switch off email · Work somewhere quiet · Do some work on papers every month www. davidpannell. net
www. davidpannell. net 6. Build efficiently off existing papers
Build off existing papers · Look for opportunities to extend a piece of research ¨ Pannell, D. J. (2008).

Don’t waste a submission · Make sure the paper … ¨ Is within scope for the journal ¨ Has an ‘angle’ that is likely to appeal ¨ Is well connected to existing literature ¨ Is presented in a way that is highly consistent with journal style • not just about formats • also broader issues, like use of maths ¨ Is not too long ¨ Is well written ¨ Is polished www. davidpannell. net
www. davidpannell. net 8. Do synthesis papers as well as straight research papers Pulls together various bits of research (perhaps your own) to draw bigger conclusions
Do synthesis papers · · Get extra value from your research Good for citations Good for students Can take less work than a standard research paper www. davidpannell. net
www. davidpannell. net 9. Support your students to publish
Support students · Encourage them ¨ to write papers ¨ to start early · Help them to do it · For outstanding ones ¨ If appropriate, find them a post-doc position in your School/Centre ¨ If they move, keep collaborating with them www. davidpannell. net
www. davidpannell. net Increasing citations
Increasing citations · Increasingly important for ERA · We can’t control citations of our own papers · But we can have an influence www. davidpannell. net
1. Cite yourself Hilmer, C. E. , Lusk, J. L. (2009). Determinants of citations to the agricultural and applied economics association journals, Review of Agricultural Economics 31: 677 -694. Abstract This paper investigates citations to articles published in the Review of Agricultural Economics and in the American Journal of Agricultural Economics to better understand the impact of articles published in these journals and to evaluate recent policy decisions made by the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association. The biggest factors affecting non-self citations are self-citations and whether the article received at least one citation in the year after publication, suggesting that "advertising" and "signaling" play important roles in the extent to which a paper is cited. Principal papers and comments/replies are associated with significantly fewer citations for both journals. www. davidpannell. net
2. Advertise your work · Conference presentations · Have a personal web site, and link to your papers on-line · Have pre-publication versions of your papers on your web site · Write a blog about your papers · Put out brief discussion papers/articles on line that summarise a paper · Send the paper to selected people www. davidpannell. net
3. Collaborate · Researchers in collaborations tend to cite each other www. davidpannell. net
4. Write papers that are highly citable · · Reviews Synthesis papers Currently hot issues Methodological papers www. davidpannell. net
Citations (from Scopus. com) M S R RH M = methods R = Review S = Synthesis H = Hot topic SH H H R www. davidpannell. net
5. Work across disciplines · Good for social scientists, as biological and physical scientists cite each other a lot more · Interdisciplinary work may be of broader interest · Two or more disciplines might cite it www. davidpannell. net
