PhD studentsย โ How to read a research paper?
Here is how you can get 10x more out of reading a research paper.
๐. ๐๐ก๐๐๐ค ๐ซ๐๐ฅ๐๐ฏ๐๐ง๐๐: Before diving deep into a paper, skim through the abstract, introduction, and conclusion of the paper to make sure that the paper is relevant. You don't want to spend 2-3 hours ending up with nothing.
๐. ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ญ๐ ๐ฌ๐ฒ๐ง๐จ๐ฉ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌ: If you found the paper to be relevant, write the synopsis of the paper within concrete 3 bullet points - (i) what the authors did (ii) How they did it (iii) What they found. It will establish the broader picture of the paper within your mind. Once you are certain what is it about, you can easily navigate through the paper.
๐. ๐๐๐๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐๐ฒ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฌ๐:ย Why do you want to read this paper? Do you want to understand the research methodology? Are you looking for a new research idea to take from this paper? Be clear about the purpose. It will save your time and help you to focus on the specific part.
๐. ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฒ: Read the paper critically. This means that once you have read the paper, you should be able to answer - what are the strengths and weaknesses of this paper. This is important so that you get the capability to assess the quality of a research piece.
๐. ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ญ๐ ๐ค๐๐ฒ ๐ญ๐๐ค๐๐๐ฐ๐๐ฒ๐ฌ: As you go through the paper or after finishing reading, write about points like (i) what are the key takeaways for me from this paper (ii) where I can use these takeaways (iii) what can be done on the top of the existing work (iv) Can something be improved. You don't need to write long stories. All of this you can write within 5-10 min. Knowledge not put in writing evaporates.
๐. ๐๐ค๐ข๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ก๐ซ๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก ๐ซ๐๐๐๐ซ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฌ: After finishing the main body, check the references. You may find some very relevant works there too. If such is the case, you can snowball depending upon the time you have for reading.
๐. ๐๐ซ๐๐ฌ๐๐ง๐ญ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐ญ๐๐ค๐๐๐ฐ๐๐ฒ๐ฌ: Look at the diagrams, tables, graphs, and writing style of the paper. Ask yourself whether such style of diagrams or graphs, etc would be good for my paper. If the answer is yes, note it down in your takeaways.
๐. ๐๐จ๐ญ๐ ๐๐ฑ๐๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐๐ซ ๐ฉ๐๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ฌ: Some papers you read might be very relevant to the paper you want to write next. Note 2-3 such papers and put them in front of yourself while writing your next paper. It will serve as a reference guide for your paper writing.
๐. ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ง๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ก๐๐ซ๐: As a researcher, the more you read, the better for you. A paper is not to be read only in the lab or office. Sometimes, you get more out of a paper - reading it while sitting in a park or traveling on a train or bus. Try reading in different places and see what works the best for you.
