Penerbitan (Publication) Dalam Kajian (Research Study)

gambar hiasan

Apakah itu penerbitan (publication)? Pelajar master & PhD diperlukan menghantar artikel untuk penerbitan iaitu sebagai pra-syarat bergraduasi.. sekurang-kurangnya bertaraf Citation-Indexed Journals iaitu jurnal yang selalunya bertaraf antarabangsa (international) seperti Science Direct, Wiley-Blackwell, Taylor & Francis (boleh rujuk di post saya sebelum ini, DISINI) Antara sebab kenapa perlu kita merujuk & menghantar artikel bertaraf CIJ adalah:

1. Publisher menyediakan sistem yang agak ketat seperti double blind reviewing, mementingkan content terutamanya dari segi body of knowledge.
2. Selain itu, jurnal indeks ini mempunyai high impact journals (SCOPUS - managed by Elsevier, Web of Knowledge, ISI Thomson - managed by Thomson-Reuters). Ini bermaksud, jurnal ini mempunyai benchmark yang dinamakan Impact Factor (IF). IF adalah ukuran purata sesuatu artikel itu dirujuk dalam artikel lain.

Bagaimana dengan proceeding? Proceeding lazimnya tidak melalui proses refereeing yang rigorous. Ini kerana panel-panel hanya menilai kesesuaian artikel untuk tema-tema dalam conference sahaja. Namun ada proceeding yang mencapai tahap refereeing seperti journal iaitu terbitan Procedia (Elsevier). Oleh sebab itu, tugas kita sebagai researcher, perlu memastikan semua perkara ini sebelum menghantar artikel..

Menjejaki Author Tersohor, Journal dan Artikel Dalam Bidang Anda

academic.research.microsoft.com

Kenapa kita perlu tahu siapakah authors dalam bidang penyelidikan kita? Bagi saya, bila kita minat terhadap sesuatu, kita ingin mengenali siapa leader kita, siapa yang expert & rujukan kajian kita.. Contohnya....dalam bidang supply chain management... Martin Christopher, Emeritus Professor of Marketing & Logistics dari Cranfield School of Management, Cranfield University (Klik disini utk maklumat lanjut) dan Dr. Angappa Gunasekaran dari Charlton College of Business, University of Massachusetts Dartmouth (USA) (klik disini utk maklumat lanjut) adalah penyelidik terkenal seantero dunia. Kalau kita tahu intisari kajian penyelidik tersohor... kita akan dapat panduan yang mantap kajian terkini dalam bidang kajian kita....Maka kita perlu membaca "semua" artikel beliau utk mendapatkan hala tuju kajian kita... supaya selari dgn sifu kita tersebut.

Antara sifu dalam bidang kajian saya ialah:

1. Kevin B. Hendricks dari Wilfrid Laurier University  
2. George A. Zsidisin dari Bowling Green State University 
3. Murali Sambasivan dari Universiti Putra Malaysia (my co-supervisor)
4. Suhaiza Zailani dari Universiti Sains Malaysia (my ex-supervisor)

Bukan itu sahaja, kita juga dapat tahu artikel / penulisan akademik yang berkaitan dengan sifu kita... kita juga akan tahu journal mana yang menerbitkan artikel beliau... maka secara tak lansung, kita pun tahulah senarai journal yang releven dalam bidang kajian kita... 

Berikut saya extract journal-journal yang dimaksudkan... jadi dengan tak semena2 saya dah tahu journal yang terlibat dalam supply chain management.

• Supply Chain Management-an International Journal
• The International Journal of Logistics Management
• Journal of Manufacturing Technology Management
• International Journal of Production Research
• Production Planning & Control
• Journal of Strategic Information Systems
• International Journal of Operations & Production Management

The 11 commandments for PhD failure

1. Isolate yourself

You are surrounded by other very smart people with different experience and ways of viewing problems.

But if you want to fail, don’t ask them for their opinions. Never ask for advice if you find something difficult, and never admit that you’re making less progress than you think you should.

Don’t discuss your research. Instead, wait till you write your thesis before you attempt to explain your work for the first time.

 

2. Don’t take time to think

You have to work hard if you’re doing a PhD.

Professors work 26 hours per day, so you must too. Clearly, that’s the best way to do your best work. If you stop to think, people might think you are being lazy, and it’s vital to maintain the appearance of being busy even if you’re too exhausted to tie your own shoelaces.

If you stop to think, you might be able to find a better way of doing things that saves you time… or a new idea that’s a breakthrough in your research. Then what are you going to do for the rest of the day?

 

3. Don’t ask for what you need

Your supervisor might say no, after all. Instead, carry on doing things the way you are whether it’s working or not.

You can avoid asking for things by following commandment 2. If you don’t think about what you need, you can’t ask for it.

 

4. Make lots of excuses

Things will happen that will slow you down.

It’s not your fault… you didn’t have the support, you didn’t have the resources, this didn’t arrive on time, there are too many distractions…

Excuses are a great way to cover up your own responsibility for your own research. Strip them away and the onus is on you to think about what you need to do to overcome the circumstances and make progress.

 

5. Spend all your time reacting to new things

Your inbox is your master. If you want to stay a PhD student forever then spend all your time reacting to new (but non-urgent) tasks coming in, rather than on your long-term goals or finishing what you’ve already started.

Wait till Monday before you decide what you’ll do next week, and then just do what you feel like doing at that moment.

 

6. Do everything important at the last minute

You work best with tight deadlines.

Doing everything at the last minute means that you won’t have time to think about what you are doing, and gives plenty of opportunity for excuses to crop up.

 

7. Ignore your own mistakes

Successful people acknowledge and think about their mistakes, then act accordingly.

But you learned from undergrad studies that a mistake is the worst thing you can make in an exam or in an essay. Back then there was little chance or need to learn from mistakes, as you only had to retake the exam if you failed.

Failing a PhD is all about working harder without gaining a deeper insight into your research. So don’t stop to think about what you’ve done wrong and what you can do differently, and never, ever admit your mistakes to others.

 

8. Avoid making decisions

You can avoid making mistakes in the first place by doing nothing.

Spend all your time worrying about whether this or that option is best, because you don’t and can’t ever know with certainty until you try (that¡s why it’s called research).

You could decide to try something new, but that means having to stop to think about the options. And you risk making mistakes which you’d then have to think about some more and try to learn from, or admit to.

 

9. Try to be an expert in everything

No good at statistics or data analysis? Never written a computer program before? No idea where to start with a new sub-topic?

Try to do it all yourself and don’t ask for help. Spend most of your time doing things you are bad at, and less time doing the things you’re good at.

It might take a colleague 30 seconds to do something it will take you a week to figure out, but then you can’t make excuses and look busy by struggling on alone.

 

10. Be totally passive with your supervisor

Just do as you are told. Don’t bring your own ideas to meetings, don’t ask for clarification, don’t stand up for yourself or what you think is best.

If you want to be treated with respect, act with dignity and act proactively. 

But speaking your mind, voicing your concerns, coming up with your own solutions to problems means that they might start to see you as a human being and a capable researcher, but there’s also a risk of them disagreeing with you.

You supervisor is not your employer. They aren’t your owner, either. Your time is yours, and you are investing it in the PhD.

But just stay quiet and stay chained to your desk for 3 more years.

 

11. Forget why you’re here

You are here to succeed. You are here to finish your PhD and move on to the next challenge in your life.

It involves taking some risks, making difficult decisions, thinking creatively, overcoming obstacles. It involves thinking about what you are going to do right now, and acting decisively to achieve what you want to achieve.

But it’s easier in the short term to see the whole thing as an impossible burden, to hide behind excuses, be passive, avoid making decisions and focus on all the problems you face instead.
