dc.description.abstractOver the years, while editing numerous manuscripts, we have noted a consistent problem exists regarding the manner in which the method section, of research articles, is written. All too often crucial content is missing and, thus, the reader is unable to truly understand what the researcher did. If the method section of the article is poorly written, not only will the reader not understand what was done, but no one can replicate the researcher’s work, since no one will know what actually had been done.In general, the method section, of a research article, needs to contain the following elements: design, ethical considerations, sample, procedure, instruments or measurements, and data analysis. Each of these elements will be discussed, over the next two issues of the Thai Journal of Nursing Research. In this issue, we will focus on what needs to be included in the: design, ethical considerations and sample components of the method section of a research article.en_US
