Types of Paper

e-INVESTA: Jurnal Rumpun Ilmu Ekonomi dan Bisnis Islamreceives manuscripts in an original research paper and review paper.

  1. An original study work, which is recognized as primary literature and reports on in-depth research. It is organized as follows: introduction and background problems, literature review and development of hypotheses, research methodology, results, interpretations of findings, discussion, and conclusion. Typically, the length of the paper falls between 4500 and 7500 words. Example of a scientific paper: GoFood MSEs Partnership Performance: An Integration of Entrepreneurial Attitude, Marketing Capabilities, and Brand Attitude
  2. A review paper, which is an article that provides up-to-date reports and discussions on the current issues of economics and business. It discusses previous development from the topic and gives an overview of the future. Its format includes an introduction and followed by necessary subsections. In general, a review paper usually consists of 3000-6000 words, depending on the case being reviewed. Example of review paper: A Critical Review of the Market Efficiency Concept

General Structure of Original Research

Paper Identity

The title of the paper must be succinct and informative. It should be pertinent to the topic at hand and no longer than 15 words. Following the title are the authors' names, affiliations, and email addresses. The writers' names should not be followed by an academic title.

Abstract
The abstract should be concise and informative, and it is composed of one paragraph. The abstract should provide a concise summary of the full study. It begins with the research gap, followed by the study objective, methodology, key findings, and significance of the findings. The abstract should stand alone, which means it should not contain any citations or references. The abstract should describe the author's methodology and emphasize the significant findings. Avoid using uncommon abbreviations and technical jargon. Following the abstract, there must be between three and five well chosen and closely linked keywords.

Introduction
The goal of a research paper should be clearly stated in the introduction. It offers important references to relevant works. It describes the research's major contribution. Background of the study, research contexts, research gaps, and research objectives should comprise the introduction (at the end of the introduction). The introduction should demonstrate the scientific significance or originality of the paper. All openers should be presented as paragraphs, not bullet points, and comprise 15 to 20 percent of the total article length. Additionally, the introduction should represent the theoretical foundation of the study article. It includes a literature evaluation written in essay format. The objective of a literature review is to "review" (re+view) what previous researchers have done in relation to the article's themes. Therefore, in the literature review, researchers should analyze, reorganize, and synthesize the work of earlier researchers, and then formulate hypotheses (if any). This section provides an outline of your research. It is then followed by a specific statement of your paper's uniqueness or differentiation relative to earlier research.

Method
The procedure part comprises a paragraph-based description of the study design, sample selection and data sources, research tools, data collection, and data analysis (variable measurement), accounting for 10 to 15 percent of the entire article length.

Results
The research must yield outcomes that are supported by appropriate data. The study results and the discovery must correspond to the research questions and/or hypotheses provided in the literature review. The results section describes the outcomes of the data analysis performed to address the research question (s). The outcomes should provide a summary of (scientific) findings. It typically includes information displayed in tables, interview responses, and figures (see the Article Template for detail description of how to present tables, interview responses, figures, and graphs)

Discussion
Each contributor has a unique writing style for the discussion area. In general, the commentary should examine the relevance of the work's findings rather than restate them. It is the most crucial section of your article's discussion. Here, you have the opportunity to sell your data. Make the commentary relevant to the results, but avoid restating the results. Typically, scientific articles should begin with a concise description of the key findings. The significance of the findings should be demonstrated using current theories and references of the subject area. The following topics must be addressed in discussion: What is the relationship between your results and the initial topic or hypothesis expressed in the Introduction/literature review section? Do you provide scientific interpretation for each of your presented outcomes or findings (why)? Are your findings compatible with those of other researchers (what else)? Or, are there any distinctions? (The percentage of the Results and the Discussion parts is 40-60 percent of the entire article length).

Conclusion
The conclusion contains a summary and restatement of the key results. It should provide a succinct summary of the paper's key arguments and the author's interpretation of the practical significance of the findings. Describe how your work improves upon the current state of knowledge in the field. Without a strong conclusion, it will be difficult for reviewers and readers to determine whether the work merits publication in the magazine. Do not repeat the Abstract or just state the outcomes of the experiments. Provide a transparent scientific argument for your work and identify potential applications and extensions. You can also suggest future research and identify ongoing studies. Write no more than one or two sentences for the conclusion.
