Publishing paper in high quality journals requires high quality article, trustworthy,native language and a lot of expertise. It is more difficult to publish a paper unless it is a good quality original research.
Dear Rasha
There are no difficulties, but it is a passage through a publishing system that differs according to the rules of publication of each magazine. The cost of publishing varies. Some scientific journals cost less. If you are an annual participant, It is always preferable to read the instructions well and some published research for the supposed magazine to deposit a search, some centers and universities have committees to read the research and prepare it before publication by experts
good luck
It depends on the several reasons. For example:
Structure and quality of your manuscript, the quality and acceptance capacity of a journal, scientific levels and positions of manuscript's authors, selective reviewer by a journal, ...
A high quality scientific researches need work hard and patient.
All the best
Publishing paper in high quality journals requires high quality article, trustworthy,native language and a lot of expertise. It is more difficult to publish a paper unless it is a good quality original research.
Not always, as the subject is related to the publishing instructions and contexts of acceptance of the articles in each journal.
Good Greeting all dear colleagues and friends
Dera Dr Alshamssi
You are right and I agree with You!
There are several factors ranging from finance to personal commitment
No, I do not admit it.
If your research is good, you just need to read some good related articles from the journal of your choice. Then prepare your article accordingly. Keep it for one month as such. After that, read it and correct the mistakes. Show it to your colleagues for further corrections. Then submit it for publication to the journal you chose previously.
For submission of any other journal, you have to change the text and references as per the journal style only.
Regards.
I have the same problem! But I can't blame the journals or their editorial boards. Now it is not easy to verify the quality of published data, of course this is in part of it a reflection of technological development and our ability to compile unrealistic data.
It can only be hard if a quality and thorough work has not been done and/or the work was not properly reported/presented.
To publish a good paper in a journal of repute always has been a tough job.
Because each journal has its protocol to follow. A more prestige more protocol.
Regards!
I agree with Dr. @Mushtak T. S. Al-Ouqaili
The research is the hard part. The writing is nearly as hard as the research. The publishing is annoying, but not hard if you did the two other parts well.
Research is hard because you have to formulate new, interesting questions that you have to be able to address in a sound and complete manner. This takes years to learn to do well
Writing is hard because you have to take all the ideas in your head that you have been focusing on for months to years (or even longer) and translate them into simple, natural language that the intended audience can understand and finds interesting. Your audience is determined by the journal you intend to publish in, so you have to have some concept of what articles in that journal look like in terms of the formatting and language.
Publishing is submitting a paper and having other authors who've published in that journal think that the article is above threshold. It can be a slow, persnickety process, but it isn't hard per se.
Publishing becomes very hard when you don't succeed at the research or writing.
I strongly concur Dr. Hassan Alshamsi.
To publish our research works in a reputed international scientific Journal of good impact factor, We must consider the following:
the quality of the language
The novelty and good organizing of the work
The importance of the point of the research
The scientific treatment processing should be good and accurate.
The importance of selecting the appropriate journal for the topic.
If the authors take care of all of the above mentioned, the publishing process will be available and easy.
Good luck
Why not establish one yourselves? There tends, certainly in literature for example, fixed views and power plays amongst editors and influential people. Of course, publishing must be difficult in order to gain the writer and journal authenticity, but many published papers are reiterative, suggesting such a fixed approach and, at times, an unwillingness to accept exploration. I know a group, from this or another research site, set up an online history journal-their academic qualifications gave it immediate credibility.
Presentation /Presentation and Presentation
Make the title catchy / Focus on Abstract and Intro
Give good captions for images .
Whole idea is to either improvize or criticize $^%&*(
It is not so hard! It is a meticulous process should do on regular base. It is practice and learning process.
A tough work indeed especially if you want to reach larger audience with great visibility. You need finances because some journals require about $US500 for the Article Processing Charge. Some require patience because it could bi- annually or quarterly publication. Sometimes you can be faced with manuscripts rejection mainly because of some strict journal rules and guidelines. Good research is a serious business/work wick can lead to high quality research outcome.
Thank you
Because, from one point of view, the target journal is of a high quality, respecting itself and its readership.
Regards
Because it's the only way to share your reseearch with others......And it depends upon the journal too....To increase their citation ....For increasing the IF
I can talk from my own experience. I had on my doctoral committee a journalism professor, so when I published my first paper with him, it got accepted without any revisions. From then on, I learnt that I should publish with an experienced researcher until I got the hang of the process. I have been successful to some extent in publishing but not without the cooperative effort of more experienced researchers, so I will recommend this strategy, until you are have been groomed to do it on your own.
Many thanks,
Debra
Publishing quality research paper in quality journals is hard. This is because, research results are scrutinize, the language structure used to communicate the findings is also scrutinized. This is aside reviewers perception to the work and how they understand what you are communicating. So good quality work published takes time....
Because someone else or some other people will look at (review) it and every fact has to be true and supported by results. If a small issue is not explained or is not supported by literature or your results, the reviewer makes sure you have addressed it together with a host of other issues
For publishing high quality paper, high quality research is required, which definitely take little bit extra time
Why is publishing a research paper so hard?
Because there are SMEs to review your paper in order to meet certain minimal standard. Sometimes also due to our inexperienced or working alone / silo in writing & submitting our paper for review.
You can also refer to the following RG links on how to write & publish your paper successfully:

For clarification, publication in magazines with high impact factors is difficult and is often due to the high standards required by these journals in addition to the high frequency of publishing in them, which gives them a wide range of choice between the research provided

Is there any history of genuinely innovative papers being consistently rejected, their promise emerging later?
Publishing research paper in a reputed scientific journal though apparently look difficult it is not so. Practice makes man perfect. Two or three publications of yours will help you master the manuscript writing art.
Before formulating the hypothesis, it is necessary to show where the gap in research exists. In other words the Introduction part of your paper must reflects extensive literature overview with maximum citations and then come out where distinctly the gap is and then frame the hypothesis (for management paper), or frame the purpose and scope of the research (for engineering paper), or clearly deduce what exactly is unlawful or amendment through research you are interested in (for Legal research). It is extremely necessary to mention research design in management and legal research or materials and methods in case of engineering. Respondents and questionnaire needs to be discussed for social science/management or the experimental set up and standard lab materials etc should be very clearly stated. Results and discussions must must be quite scientifically acceptable. Open minded discussion with clear understanding will then lead to conclusions.
If the content remains through out consistence, your paper will definitely be published with least observations from the reviewer.
Believe me it is really not tough to get the research paper published if the work is qualitative and appreciable to peers.
PAPERS REJECTED FROM JOURNALS:
Enrico Fermi's seminal paper on weak interaction, 1933
"It contained speculations too remote from reality to be of interest to the reader." - Frank Close, Small Things and Nothing Rejected by Nature
Hans Krebs' paper on the citric acid cycle, AKA the Krebs cycle, 1937 -NATURE
Murray Gell-Mann's work on classifying the elementary particles, 1953-Physical Review
The first model of the Higgs, 1964
Paper outlining nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, 1966 -JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL PHYSICS
Rejection is mainly because of lack of novelty and strict criteria set by most high impact journals to prevent reproducibility of research.One other reason may be mother tongue is not english and lack of training for scientific writing and how to publish along with high fees of publication,these of course are among other several reasons
AND MRE:
The discovery of quasicrystals, 1984
"It was rejected on the grounds that it will not interest physicists." - Dan Shechtman
Quasicrystals are structures that are ordered but not periodic, but when Dan Shectman first reported on these strange structures back in his 1984 paper "The Microstructure of Rapidly Solidified Al6Mn," it was rejected by Physical Review Letters for being more relevant to metallurgic researchers.
It was published by Metallurgic Transactions A later that year, and Shechtman went on to win the Nobel Prize in 2011.
8. The first paper on polymerase chain reaction (PCR), 1993
"Dan Koshland would be the editor of Science when my first PCR paper was rejected from that journal and also the editor when PCR was three years later proclaimed Molecule of the Year." - Kary Mullis, Nobel Prize
Kary Mullis was jointly awarded the 1993 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for "his invention of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method".
PCR is the technique that is used every day in labs across the world to amplify DNA strands - but the first paper describing it was rejected by Science. No word as yet on why, but we bet the journal was pretty sore to miss out on that scoop.
It is difficult till you have not done it.once done then it is easy

Good luck
Dear Dr. Wilkin,
It is true that many excellent research works were rejected in the past. It is happening now also.
The main reason is the dependence on the reviewer's report on the paper. The reviewers (in most of the cases unpaid) have their own limitations like all other human being. I know some reviewers who did not read a single published research paper on his subject during last 10 years!
Past achievements and position is their fuel.
If, by bad luck, any two of such reviewers comment that paper can not be accepted, then journal editorial board do not try any alternative generally. The reason is that the famous journals always search EXCLUSION CRITERIA to reject the articles due to pressure of a huge number of articles.
This is my personal idea.
Regards.
Dear
I think it required your ability to transmission your work to all with application of style of site you need to published in it
What is hard is trying to publish in a high IF journal which must be the target of every serious academic.
The peer review is robust, the process can take a great deal of time.
To be successful, researchers must be dedicated to excellence and integrity in their research expeditions and writings.
Its a journey, though difficult, but often ends in very positive results for the academic and professional development of a researcher/scholar.
Publication of a research entirely depends on the reviewers of a journal. If reviewers think the work is having adequate novelity and it contributing some new knowledge then maybe they'll consider the work for publication.
Many times it also happened that very good articles have been rejected because of reviewers disagreement to publish but later published in other journals.
Write a draft, submit in relevant journal, let the reviewers decide. If they reject, improve it according to their comments and submit it to other journals.
At the end all work will find a suitable home.
Cheers.
Sumit
You must have something important to share for it to be published.
@Dr. Olutosin Ademola, you need no payment of APC if you have a well written manuscript with a novel idea. All you need doing is to find an appropriate journal with a high impact factor for comprehensive peer review.
Why scholars find it difficult to publish in refereed journals with high impact factor:
High impacts journals require original articles, well articulated points, with clear objective(s), research gap and conclusions.
The time take for peer review process lengthy and needs is to be reviewed down. I advise peers that we should see a review task as a necessity not voluntary contribution to the research community, we need to act faster and be more thorough. For the authors, we need to ensure that we proof read our manuscript before submission, this will make it more apealing to the reviewers and will ease the publication process
It depend on the quality of the work and the type of journal you send the article to.
