The citation rate measures the quality of a research paper. Different strategies can be used to increase the citation rate (e.g., publication in open access journals and in journals with a high impact factor). However, to reach the maximum citation rate, a research paper should be capable of attracting, as much as possible, the attention of scholars. In this context, the paper’s title plays a fundamental role. Since curiosity constitutes the driving force of the research, the article’s title should include words capable of raising curiosity. All titles should be carefully prepared with the aim to inform about the paper’s content by increasing curiosity in the readers.

Abstract
The citation rate measures the quality of a research paper. Different strategies can be used to increase the citation rate (e.g., publication in open access journals and in journals with a high impact factor). However, to reach the maximum citation rate, a research paper should be capable of attracting, as much as possible, the attention of scholars. In this context, the paper’s title plays a fundamental role. Since curiosity constitutes the driving force of the research, the article’s title should include words capable of raising curiosity. All titles should be carefully prepared with the aim to inform about the paper’s content by increasing curiosity in the readers.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
