This research aims to reconstruct the cognitive processes experienced by a number of expert writers in Indonesia in writing high-reputable international articles. With the grounded theory approach, it performs open coding, axial coding, selective coding, and generating theory from data gathered of the in-depth interviews and document analysis of the informants- articles. It reveals that the activity of literature review or "search before research" is an upstream of the whole cognitive process in composing academic articles. Accuracy in the process of review of the library will bring up the state of the art and research gap that then has the element of high novelty so that the reading-researching-writing activities are integrated into one-unity of flashed cognitive process. Publication as a downstream of the literature review activity or the end of the cognitive process of academic writing becomes a medium for scientific writers to be obedient to the provisions of the focus and scope of the intended journal. This research concluded that “search-topic-research-writing-publication” or the “cognitive model of academic writing” is a series of cognitive processes as well as raw materials in the formulation of theories and cognitive models in academic writing.
