As a researcher, you need to have a clear idea about the different types of articles that you could publish in journals. Last year, we published a post on 6 different types of articles published by journals. Based on this post, we have created a word-grid search for you.
Follow the clues below the grid to identify the type of article the clue is describing. All you have to do is to click on the first and last letter of the word on the grid and the entire word will be highlighted. To help you find the words faster, we've also listed the clues below:
