(普遍期刊)，普遍期刊的文章話題是較為包羅萬象，比如RELCJournal,ELTJournal,System。在某一特定的學科范圍內(nèi)（如二語教學），無論您研究的是correctivefeedback還是teacheridentity投這些期刊都沒有話題限制。NicheJournals

(特定領(lǐng)域期刊)特定領(lǐng)域期刊上的話題除了限定在某一特定的學科范圍，還限定了領(lǐng)域。比如JournalofSecondLanguageWriting,ReadinginaForeignLanguage等等。特定領(lǐng)域期刊因為話題集中，被引用的次數(shù)也多，導致了高影響因子，而且期刊評審都是小圈子里的圈內(nèi)人。有意見認為特定領(lǐng)域期刊的拒稿率較普遍期刊為高。RejectionRateREJECTIONisalmostthedefaultsettinginourfieldofresearch.Theaveragerejectionrateinappliedlinguisticsisabout70%.Wrongsubmission:“Weregrettoinformyouthatyourmanuscriptdoesn’tfitwiththeaim,scopeandtargetreadersofourjournal.”Rejectioninpreliminaryreview：lowqualityofpapers,linguisticandgrammaticalerrors,doesn’tmatchthetargetreadersandresearchareasofthejournal,donotobservethestylespecifiedbythejournal,etc.Reviewers’ConcernsConiam,2012Scholarlybackground(literaturereview)Contributionstothefield(framing,introductorysection,crucial!!)Researchmethodology(crucial!!!)Language(accuracy,writingstyleetc.)ReasonsforRejection:Outofjournal’sscope(editors’decision)Littleknowledgecontribution(editors’decisionandreviewers’recommendation)Argumentdeficiencies(methodological,writingstyle,etc.)(reviewers’recommendation)ContributionsTheoreticalContributionsContributioninMethodologyorPracticeWell-groundedLiteratureRevieworMeta-analysisNewKnowledgeRespondingtotherequirementsofjournalsInstructionsforAuthors/SubmissionGuidelinesTheInstructionsforauthorsorsubmissionguidelinesspecifythestyle,length,topicandresearchethics.Readthemcarefullybeforesubmissioninordertoguaranteethatyoursubmissionmeetthoserequirements.For,System,itsGuideforauthorscanbefoundinthefollowingwebsite:/journals/system/0346-251X/guide-for-authors有時如果作者把被拒的稿件再次投出而忽視了格式，編輯可能會看出該文章曾經(jīng)被哪家期刊拒過。因為各期刊的格式要求都有些微差別，比如LanguageTeachingResearch是偏向APA的格式，而AppliedLinguistics是采取牛津出版社的格式……SuggestionsforNoviceWritersChoosetherighttypeofjournal.Forexample,itisadvisabletotrypedagogicaljournalifyourpapercenteredaroundclassroomteaching.Berealisticwithyourpaper.Youmaysubmittojournalswithlowerrejectionratewhenitisyourfirstsubmissioninyourlifetime.Orelsesomeotherstrytosubmittotopjournalsintheirfieldtocollectfeedbacksforestablishedscholarstogetherwithrejectionletters.ReadtheInstructionsforauthorsorsubmissionguidelinescarefullybeforesubmission.Book
