Writing a Scientific Paper for Publication
*รห�สืผ�แตี.ง (author identifier) Many authors have similar names . The Scopus Author Identifier distinguishes between these names by assigning each author in
Scopus a unique number and grouping together all of the documents written by
that author. Additionally, author names in Scopus can be formatted differently . For
example, the same author could appear in one document as Lewis, M; in another as L
ewis, M.J; and in another as Lewis, Michael . Scopus Author Identifier matc
hes the documents of this author and g roups these name variants together so
that authors, even if cited differently, a re identified with their specific papers.
This helps you find and recognize an author, despite variations in name spelling.

Discussion:
Recommend
• Using figures instead of tables (One picture is indeed better than a thousand words.)
• Recognize the importance of negative results. (Don’t automatically conclude that the experiment is a failure or that you’ve made a mistake.)
