countries (IFRS, 2004). This provides the foundation for much of the
research to date.

However recent research from emerging and developing countries such

as Brazil (Ferrero, 2013), China (Wang, 2012) and Zimbabwe (Kalumi, More specific context

Issues such as the lack of a qualified workforce, interpretation problems,
the absence of available resources, and the lack of a tradition of
undertaking professional judgment on principles based standards, has
caused problems. Adopting IFRS does not always lead to effective
implementation and these issues issue have been more profound for the
public sectors in developing countries more so than developed economies
(Jackson, 2015).

What NEVER to do



Authorship

• Authorship credit should be based only on
substantial contributions to:

 Conception and design, or analysis and


interpretation of data

 Drafting the article or revising it critically for


important intellectual content; and on

 Final approval of the version to be published.

• Conditions 1, 2, and 3 must all be met.


• Participation solely in the acquisition of
funding or the collection of data does not
justify authorship.
• General supervision of the research group
is not sufficient for authorship.
Common Mistakes
1.

Failure to cite landmark studies
2. Failure to accurately present the theoretical and
empirical contributions by other researchers
3. Failure to stay focused on the research question
4. Failure to develop a coherent and persuasive argument
5. Too much detail on minor issues, but not enough detail
on major issues
6. Too much rambling -- going "all over the map" without a
clear sense of direction (The best paper move forward
with ease and grace like a seamless river.)
7. Too many citation lapses and incorrect references
8. Too long or too short.
9. Failing to follow the references style
10. Slopping writing
Tips & Tricks

• Publish with the senior author
• Select a top journal -- a key for smooth further publication
• Networks are important
• Communicate with the chief of editor, if applicable
• Scaling up your reputation

Sit down – move away your mobile – focus – keep in mind


Predatory Publishers

• Does the journal have an editorial board with the
names of academics listed and their institutions?

• Is there a specific chief editor?

• Do editorial staff possess expertise in the relevant field?

• Are members of the editorial board also replicate


members of another journal?

• Is the organisation of the submission logical and clear


to the reader?

• Are editorial members located across a range of


geographical locations?

• Are there upfront disclosures of fees for journal


submission?
Predatory Publishers

• Does the publisher send spam requests to scholars to review
manuscripts when the scholar is not qualified in the area of
expertise?

• Does the journal provide adequate copyediting or


proofreading of submissions?

• Does the journal have a contact page with only a web-based


form and no mailing address or email address?

• THE KEY IS DON’T GO FOR AN EASY PUBLICATION IN A


PREDATORY JOURNAL. PUBLICATIONS IN THESE JOURNALS
DO NOT COUNT TOWARD PROMOTION OR A JOB
APPLICATION

• Better ONE in a reputable journal then 10 in predatory journal
