Structuring papers for success: Making your paper more like a high impact publication than a desk reject

A comparison is made between the structure of 10 high impact papers and 50 desk-rejects.

In doing so, authors are offered empirical evidence and insights into why papers that have a high impact not only differ from unsuccessful papers in terms of content, but also their structure.
