Writing Good Titles is Hard Work! Part 2


Here are some examples of Before and After titles:

The experience and the struggle with difficulty of psychiatric and mental health nurse in the community who ever worked in the ward
→The Struggles of Former Ward Nurses Working in Community-Based Mental Health
(psychiatric and mental can be combined; struggle includes the idea of "with difficulty"; experience and struggle are very similar)

Women’s Perception of Receiving Women-Centered Care During Pregnancy - A Comparison Among Birth-centers, Clinics, and Hospitals in Japan
→Perceptions of Woman-Centered Care During Pregnancy Comparing Japanese Birth Sites
(women's perception of women-centered care is redundant; no need to name all three kinds of birth sites)

The Experience of Having Thought and Sense the Men of Couples Who are Undergoing Infertility Treatment
→Men’s Experiences in Couples Undergoing Infertility Treatment
(experiences can include thought and sense)

Meanings of nurse touch in nurse-cognitively impaired elderly interactions
→The Meaning of Touch for Nurses Interacting With Cognitively Impaired Elderly
(confusing; nurse is repeated twice)

Effective coping methods to adapt to life of climacterium
→Coping Methods of Women Adapting to Menopausal Life
(climacterium is too technical; use the normal English when possible)

Factors caused feeling burden to winter driving in home visiting nurses
→Driving in Snow-Cold Districts: Burdens on Visiting Nurses
(this was a creative re-writing of the title, making clear that the burden being studied is connected to driving in cold weather)
