Summary

This chapter discusses students’ intuitive thoughts, four real cases (Chase, Marty, Judith, and Daniel), and four core concepts (Typology of Methodological Articles, Methodological Review, Methodological Empirical Research, Methodological Tutorial) with four examples regarding how to publish methodological articles. Based on the above review, it ends with three specific practical suggestions regarding writing methodological articles for publication, including writing and publishing different types of methodological articles to make different types of scientific contributions, developing a skill to identify various publishable topics, and expanding the Method section of an empirical study (e.g., a thesis, a dissertation, a final project, or a substantive study) to methodological articles (e.g., articles on design, measurement, or data analysis) and meanwhile applying methodological skills learned from writing and publishing methodological articles to improve the Method section of a study.
