Am working on research and write draft version and that version need more details and results and more versions are appears each period of time. my question is how to validate the work
how could I know that the work is going to publish in a journal or still need further work. how to know if the result is enough to be published in a journal
could I have online resources that help me on that validation
and journal preparations
Thank You
Your first port of call would be the Journal's website, and the instructions for authors. this will give you an idea of what the journal is after.
Then, you ought to read some papers published in the journal to get a feel for the type of publications on offer.
You mention drafts. It is perfectly normal to work through several drafts as you review your paper, and get input from others, read more in a particular area and add material, etc.
I do not understand what you mean by 'validate'. Your methodology should include a section on validity for your research.
What makes your paper interesting to the readership of a journal is the quality of research, whether it is relevant to the readership, and the quality of the writing. If you think these three things are in order, then contact the editor, and ask directly before submitting.
Good luck.
Zeina,
