As you hint, I would write the literature review, experimental work, then the results and discussions, the conclusion, the introduction, the abstract, the title, and then rewrite them all.

Dear Researcher

Many Important steps should be followed

1- Select an original goal for your paper.

2-Select an original material and methods for the work.

3- Literature review novel should be very relevant to your work.

4-Write your thoughts and results sequentially when they are received.

5-Your writing should be easy and understood with short sentences.

6- A good idea to compare the results with standards.

Thanks a lot dear Dr. Najah for your contribution

As you hint, I would write the literature review, experimental work, then the results and discussions, the conclusion, the introduction, the abstract, the title, and then rewrite them all.

I agree with you Dr Ian Kennedy.

Regards!

Mental Readiness with thought,idea and spirit

In addition to the recommendations stated by the respected colleagues, the following website provides useful relevant information, and lists valuable modern research tools.

I agree with Dr. Najah M. L. Al Maimuri .

best regard

It is the same as writing your thesis; you must go through the scientific process by first Identifying a problem.

Many thanks dear colleagues for the interesting opinions

Research idea and mental preparation is the most important for me.

I start choosing a journal, then do a a sketch of the abstract, a sketch of the introduction, materials and methods. i then go to detailed methodology and results presentation. i then do a detailed literature review comparing with my results. when I write methodology, i take down relevant references and start building up my reference list. i jot all relevant references also during introduction and discussion. i finally reduce my words in the abstract to correspond to the journal i am writing for.

Initially, I start with:

1. Title

2. Literature Survey

3. Introduction

4. Methodology

5. Results and Discussions

6. Conclusions

7. Abstract

After:

1. Title

2. Abstract

3. Introduction/Literature Review

4. Methodology

5. Results and Discussions

6. Conclusions, Recommendations and Area for further Research

Thanks dear colleagues Becirovic, Mushonga and Adom for your valuable contribution

I agree with Dr. Harry

Attached paper gives my take in detail.

What is the arrangement that you are followed when starting to write your paper?

I usually starts with the collection of papers, review related to the theme of my manuscript....then introduction....while writing introduction one came across some new and useful references.....then material n methods....results discussion and in the last abstract.....keywords and finally title.....

Regards

I agree with Dr. Dickson Adom submission.

First Phase

• Detailed literature survey
• Set of objectives
• Experimental work
• Completion of the first version of tables and figures which are supportive to explain the results
• Writing of the findings of the work carried out
• Demarcation of novelty/new findings
• Thoughts regarding the design of the paper (the way of presentation of the work)
• Writing the 'Results and discussion'
• Conclusions
• Introduction
• Methodology
• Abstract
• Title
• References
• Acknowledgements

Second Phase

• Reading, critical review and necessary modifications of the whole manuscript
• Starting from 'Title' ..... to 'References/Acknowledgements'
• Finalization of tables and figures

Regards

I Agree with Dr. Dickson arrangement

first I will start with good introduction about my work....what it deals with, what I have done and based on that what I have arrived at.

Then second step involves the methodology...results, discussion and conclusions

Based upon all these I will try to give the most title for my paper.

As far as my process of writing a paper is concerned, it follows like this:

Tentative Title, Objectives, Literature review, Methodology, Data analysis & Interpretation, Findings and Conclusion, Introduction, Abstract, Final Title.

Thanks for Recommendations

What is the arrangement that you are followed when starting to write your paper?

Before writing any paper, I need to ascertain I have the following:

I agreed with the points shared by previous RG members on the arrangement on how to write a paper. You can also refer to the following RG links:

Thanks dear colleagues Jejeti, Jha, Joseph, Otekunrin, Batabyal, Al-Zobae, Latha, Shafiq, Roy, Fung for the interesting answers

I am following an order similar to what Dr. Dickson Adom said.

Thank you so much Dr. Rohith R Krishnan

The variety of answers presented shows that there is no "ONE RIGHT ORDER" for writing your research. It is up to you to develop your own order. Bear in mind that there is almost no relationship between the order of doing the research, writing the research and presenting the research.

Also that the process of re-search and writing about it is non-linear and is recursive.

Don't procrastinate now. Stop following this thread and start writing anywhere immediately! Good luck.

Many thanks Dr. Ian Kennedy, it is really interesting information

Best regards

I am answering your question from the perspective of writing, not researching.

I think that it is helpful to write the first draft of the paper in the order that it will be read (assuming that you have already performed the data collection and analysis).

In the introduction, research questions, and significance of the study you frame the issues that you will then address later in the paper. Knowing HOW you have framed the issues helps you as you write the remaining sections of your paper.

Being very clear about what your literature review says will help you as you explain your methodology, findings, and discussion. So you should have at least a starting literature review before moving on.

Writing is an art, and as you write you need to build on what you have written previously, which is why writing in order has value.

Of course, after your first draft is written, writing becomes a iterative process of going back and forth between earlier and later sections, to make sure they all fit together seamlessly. During this phase of writing, you can add to the literature review to incorporate concepts that appeared in later sections, make sure that you are consistent in how you say things, etc.

Before writing any article, I always start with an outline, noting what points I'm going to argue for where. Then throughout the writing process, I know exactly where I am and what still needs to be done.

Very useful information for me, many thanks Dr. Michael W. Mark and Kirk MacGregor.

Dear Mr. Nasr

Detailed discussion pertaining to your question can be see on the given link. I am pretty sure this will be of great help for you.

https://www.researchgate.net/post/What_is_an_ideal_approach_to_start_writing_different_sections_of_research_papers_Which_section_should_be_written_first_and_which_should_be_later

In short, most researchers believe that write up phase should be started with Results section (including tables, figures, and charts), followed by Methodology, discussion and implications, Introduction. In the last, literature review part should be written so that by that author becomes highly aware of the complete write up and in the Literature section it avoids repeating the same things again and again. Once you are done with these things, then one should move towards writing Abstract.

I hope this will benefit you. Good luck!

I think the paper begins with results representation and ends with the abstract.

Thanks Dr. Jawad Abbas for the useful contribution. Thanks Dr. Najah for your answer.

Many thanks again for all colleagues for the nice discussions.

As said Dr. Kennedy: there is no "ONE RIGHT ORDER" for writing your research

Regards

Yes, it is true - there is no "ONE RIGHT ORDER" (arrangement) for writing a research paper. Thanks

First of all get enough literatures, write introduction, literature review and do your practicals , present and analyse your results, discuss the results and make conclusion and get all your references.

I agree with dr. Han Ping Fung.

Many thanks Dr. Emmanuel Ifeanyi Obeagu and Dr. Hind S. Abdulhay

Interesting answers.

I appreciate your answer Dr. Sherief Abd-Elsalam, thank you very much.

Interesting and useful ..... thank you.

Thank you Mr. Ahmed Mahdi for your contribution.
