Using "my" in a publication In publications the wording often resembles the following: "We found that our results followed what we found in our previous research."  I am now writing a publication alone, with no co-authors.  Is it bad form to use "my" in place of "our" in such cases?
In my field, it is not common to use first singular personal pronoun even when the paper has only one author. Using 'we' and 'our' in this case means that the author refers to the reader and him/herself.
