Publishing Research: From an Occupational Therapy Perspective
Journal Title: Diabetes Research – Open Journal - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Two years ago, at the inception of this Diabetes Research – Open Journal, I wrote an opinion article for the inaugural issue about the need for articles targeting secondary prevention.1 The journal has grown to provide many quantitative research articles that deal with important issues for managing tertiary issues, thus providing statistically significance current research. However, I failed to convince both the researcher and reviewers about the important of qualitative research.
