Writing papers for high-quality journals in the social and behavioral sciences is both an art and a science, and this workshop will delve into both the art and the science. A discussion of theory and theory development will be situated within the elements of an empirical journal article - including identifying a scientific gap and writing a good article. A broader emphasis of the workshop will be to situate theory within a research program and paradigms of research.
