Congrats.

Congrats to Curt on Juxtapoz too.

I've been published in a small form factor "Computer security" magazine that has a name with numbers in it. (I'm trying not to get blacklisted.)

Coheed and Cambria once retweeted an article I wrote ripping on plastic instrument games :lolz:

even though their music is in plastic instrument games?

My daughter was actually published in a book, can't remember the title, something along the lines of Youth Poetry...

it's in the house somewhere... I'll have to dig it out.

Congrats Eddie.

Did you cite research done here properly?

Congrats.

Now that you've got a manuscript published, you'll have to keep publishing yearly for as long as your academic career persists...publish or perish.

Congrads.

The only time I've been "published" was when Neal Boortz posted up a short blog-style email on his website that I wrote to him.

neogeo.com will be my dissertation...

I hope you cross-referenced with Wizkid first.

I was on the staff at a local magazine for a couple years. It's really cool seeing your name in print for the first time.

Congrats dude!

Congratulations Alex, that is awesome. I wonder if I could get my cognitive neuroscience research paper published (from last semester) as well... how did you go about doing it?

My professor said that if we did well on the final research paper that they were worthy of publishing, and I got 100% on it. And thats coming from a guy who has published numerous books and is highly regarded in his field. (Dr. Matthew J. Sharps, if you're interested.)

I hate books like that where you can clearly tell each section is by different authors. Ran into several books like that through college and they always pissed me off. Sometimes there would be no attempt to make the book flow easily or at least bring the sections reading levels closer together. I mean no offense Bobak, most of the books I saw with this problem were medical lab books.

It's not that kind of book. It's from a much longer chapter where various attorneys talk about the entire law school process from their perspectives and the route they took to get to where they are in their career.

I also forgot to add: I've had my photos published in various sources, including a few books and by organizations such as NHK and the Vancouver Olympics. I usually ask for a copy of that kind of work so I can add to a small collection I have.

I was on a research team, I did the coding of answers (the qualitative measure, not the quantitative measure since that is just plug into SPSS derp derp results), data organization, and proof-reading.

Look for some journals that publish material in the area of the subject of your paper and look to see how to submit the paper. Submit it and wait to hear back, most likely they'll say "revise and resubmit" which is just a bunch of vague bullshit that doesn't say a lot. I'd say from there ask a prof to read it if they are willing to (really varies on the professor) and ask for any comments or critiques they can offer. They're experienced and likely are published themselves and know what to look for. From there just keep trying.

The article I co-authored in was deemed APA Journals "Article Spotlight" on Facebook. You can actually 'Like' it.
http://www.facebook.com/APAJournals
and if anyone is up for some "light reading" here is the link to the online version. http://psycnet.apa.org/psycinfo/2011-17133-001/ Unfortunately you need an APA membership to read it. I can always upload the draft.

the article will be in print in the upcoming October issue of PMM (it had been online-first electronically printed previously). In fact it will be highlighted in a special section on Masculinity Among College Football players in the journal.

I got one of my questions read by the Comic Book Club guys on youtube.

lol I got one of my questions answered in a GI Joe comic by Larry Hamma himself (for those who know who he is). I was pretty excited by that, and it was just last year.

And yet you never question anything. In fact you fit in right in with the current direction of this field. Congrats on your achievement that’s really a non-achievement.

And psych is a science, but people continue to refuse it as such because they attack it from the wrong end entirely.

Once people learn to question things again, then the field will once again combine all the research data already available with general consistencies that litter the field as it stands, bringing together a unified loose theory on where research should be headed. After all psych is a mental phenomenon and should be treated as such when defining it using everything at our disposal. And not only that, but it has other far reaching implications into things like mathematics as well. Effectively making it quantifiable.

But frankly, its to late for you as you acquire the ability to question early in your life. And if you dont do it now, youll never do it.

Congrats on the publications, never noticed the thread before.

I was published 3-4 times, can't remember exactly. All were fluids related, one garden variety stuff and the others were supersonic combustion. I was building computational models of supersonic aircraft combustion chambers at the time. It was actually kinda fun. A couple of them were presented at an annual aerospace conference in Vegas but I was busy so someone else did it for me.
