Different Types: Descriptive, Informational, and Structured. Descriptive abstracts are typically used in social sciences and humanities, providing general information about the study without specific details about research methods and conclusions. Informational abstracts, on the other hand, are commonly found in scientific papers, presenting details regarding research background, objectives, methods, results, and conclusions. Structured abstracts are information-focused and organized by a series of headings (e.g. study objectives, methods, results, conclusions), primarily used in medical papers and clinical trial reports

Accuracy: The abstract should accurately reflect the purpose and content of the paper; Independence: The abstract should stand alone, be independent, and explain any special terms, abbreviations (excluding measurement units), or omissions; Concise and specific: Each sentence in the abstract should provide maximum information and be as concise as possible; Tense and voice: Abstracts generally use present and simple past tense, and passive voice is often used to describe factual information

It's so frustrating, last year I got over 2 points for a publication, but this year it's just over 1 point. Will it drop even more next year? Who would be willing to invest in it?

Too ruthless! It has dropped so much, who dares to invest in the future?

This journal used to very good. Papers doing statistical methods if not good enough for The American Journal of Human Genetics will be submitted to this journal, but its quality recently started to go down. Changing the editor didn’t help. I submitted one, the reviewers gave 74 comments! 8 pages, even longer than the paper itself. Even though I answered every comment, the editor rejected it. After that, the journal has been going down. It seems that it has never come back up. Recently, the source of contributions has been worrying. I have reviewed manuscripts for them and feel the quality of the manuscripts is not that great.

This magazine used to be very good for general statistical methods. If it can't be published in the American Journal of Human Genetics, it will come to this magazine. Recently, it has started to decline. Even changing the editor-in-chief didn't help. The current editor-in-chief is an Indian-descended from MD Anderson. When I submitted once, there were as many as 74 comments in the review, single-spaced pages of A4 paper, 8 pages, longer than a paper (with tables and figures). Responding one by one, it was still rejected by the editor-in-chief. Afterwards, the magazine just kept going downhill and seems unlikely to recover. Even the source of submissions has become worrying. I have reviewed their submissions before, and the quality of the manuscripts is not good

The score dropped so much, what should we do next year? Last year was 4 points, this year it suddenly dropped to below 3 points

Review Speed: 2.0 | Submission Success Rate: 75.0
Experience Sharing: Scoring below 3 this time may significantly reduce the number of submissions, which is not favorable for the future. 3 is the threshold - if it is exceeded, the number of submissions will increase, and if it is lower, the number of submissions will decrease
