How to Write a Scientific Research Paper

It is necessary to know that our need for studies is increasing every day. Science is in a

frantic race to obtain as much accurate knowledge derived from science as possible that will

ensure the comfort and well-being of human beings and ensure superiority over others.

Scientific research with its methods and procedures is necessary for any field of

knowledge (Asghar and Muhammad, 2). Learn about the different scientific research methods

and the rules to be followed. Starting from defining the scientific research problem and

describing it procedurally, choosing a specific methodology for collecting the required data,

completing data analysis, and drawing conclusions have become one of the most important

questions in all theoretical and applied sciences.

When writing scientific research, you must make a commitment to some general qualities

so that it seems professionally and is free of flaws or imbalances between the information's

content and the method used to create it (Parija and Kate). The most important characteristics

that must be considered when writing research are objectivity, optionality, accuracy, Logical,

Simplification, abbreviation, and scientific honesty.

The process of preparing scientific research consists of several stages, no part of which

can be overlooked (Scholz, 2). Each part represents an important element to show the research in

a reliable scientific manner. These stages are:

1- Topic Selection: This stage is considered one of the most important stages of preparing

scientific research based on which one topic is chosen from among many topics (Parija and

Kate). After defining the topic, you should choose the title of the research, which is required to

be brief, clear, expressive, and not open to interpretation.

2- Identification of problems: The problem in scientific research is the basis of research,

and it is the prerequisite for conducting scientific research (Asghar and Muhammad, 4). After

you have defined the topic of the research, you should determine the main problem based on

practical experiences, readings, studies, or research that you are familiar with, and then formulate

it in the form of a clear, specific, and understandable statement or question (Scholz, 3).

3- Collecting scientific material: you resort to collecting material from several sources to

obtain rich scientific material (Scholz, 3). You can search for theoretical sources of information

such as books and documented scientific articles, through field information through a

questionnaire, personal interviews, or by conducting tests to be given to a certain group to obtain

suggested solutions.

4- Data organization and analysis: after you have collected data that serves the specific

problem, you will use several methods to organize data and information, such as tables, figures,

or graphs (Parija and Kate). In addition, you may use statistical methods such as the arithmetic

mean, median, and others. These tools will help you organize the information to get the best

results.

5- After carefully studying the subject of the research, you have arrived at the results

(Asghar and Muhammad, 5). At this point in the investigation, you will discover the answers to

the questions you first set. When presenting it, you must make it clear and understandable, back

it up with the scientific methods you used to get at the results, and demonstrate that the purported

results are presented in a logical order while presenting the evidence that supports the research

findings.

6- Editing the search: Keep the expression smooth, the word choice accurate, and avoid

tampering and repetition. You must also consider the placement of punctuation marks, for the

safety of spelling, grammar, and the correct use of tenses (Scholz, 4). You must clarify strange

words, strange places, and other things that may constitute confusion for the reader, in addition

to documenting all the information mentioned with its sources, using various documentation and

citation methods.

7- Writing the research: The research could conclude with a ton of data and findings that

are documented on research-related notes, bringing you to the crucial step of structuring your

work inside an established framework that coordinates its various components, including the

introduction and conclusion (Asghar and Muhammad, 5).

Introduction: The length of the study's introduction is between 5 and 10 percent. This section

discusses the significance of the research and the rationale behind its selection in its content

(Parija and Kate). Additionally, it describes the issue, frames it in terms of time and place, and

outlines the study's goals.

Conclusion: It is the last part of the research thesis that presents the result that you reached in

your study, and shows the judgments and answers (Asghar and Muhammad, 5). The conclusion

should be characterized by having ideas arranged in a clear manner, and by direct and strong

formulation, considering the use of sentences and phrases that give the reader an impression of

the end of the research.

8- Formatting the research before printing it: you must submit the research with its

content in a format that considers the content index, which helps to save time and facilitate

access to information (Scholz, 6). Also, pagination begins after the title page and signatures.

Finally, the sources and references, which are placed after the research is complete, include all

the sources you used in your research.

Writing the scientific research in order of steps is the most systematic method for writing

organized scientific research based on the data, information, observations, and scientific facts

necessary to study the problem of scientific research.
