Followings are the definition of different types of paper Dastavard accept:

Research paper:

It is a type of academic writing which is written on the basis of an original research. In this paper, the research findings are analyzed and interpreted to generate a piece of new knowledge. You should use Dastavard Research Paper Template to submit your research manuscript.   

Review paper:

Like research paper, a review or survey paper is another form of academic writing, but instead of collecting, analyzing and interpreting raw data, it summarizes the current state of understanding on a specific topic, previously published as a book or a paper and as such. You may use Dastavard Review Paper Template to submit your review manuscript.  

Critical Essay:

Like research and review papers, a critical essay is another form of academic writing, but instead of working on raw data or summarizing and interpreting written documents, a critical essay scientifically analyzes and evaluates a text (i.e., on a specific philosophy). Text, here, means any form of material such as a product, video, poster, song, or even a theme or concept.  You may use Dastavard Critical Essay Template to submit your critical manuscript. It should also be noted that the word “critical” is frequently associated with a negative perception, but this is not true in the context of a critical essay. In this type of paper, "critical" just means discerning (differentiating) and analytical. Critical essays assess the meaning and significance of a text.
