Not all articles published in research journals are bona fide empirical studies; many are theoretical discussions, reviews of other people's research, or other kinds of articles besides those which test a hypothesis using empirical data. Watch out for articles that are part of "Special Issues," "Forums" on special topics, "Responses" to particular authors.
If you're not sure whether your article fits these criteria, and/or you want to use one from another journal, show me your article.
