Conclusion
Results Main outcome measure Subjects Setting Design Objective Tips Structured abstracts How to write an abstract for the research article UNIT 11 An abstract is a type of summary in your own words, of an article, chapter or a book. The goal of the abstract is to give sufficient information to a reader to decide if it is worth to read the whole article or not. It is “an art” to give as much information as possible in a few words. The abstracts are possible to find in special collections of abstracts, such as Medline, or in conference programmes, as well as at the beginning of a research article. Many journals demand authors who want to publish their articles in the journal to write a structured abstract - an abstract which is divided into specific sections. There could be informative or descriptive abstracts. The informative abstract is the most common type of abstract. It summarizes the whole article and includes the core themes and the purpose of the paper, main facts of the results and in the conclusion. The descriptive abstract is more specific, it emphasizes on identifying the purpose of the paper, describes the main fields which the author is going to cover in his report. It is often met in the review or survey of literature in a particular area. The author should remember whatever type of abstract he is going to write, it is very important to think about the first impression of it. Try to follow the following advices, your abstract should include: - the importance of the topic, what problem it covers -hypothesis being examined - methods and approaches used - key findings (particularly appropriate to a scientific paper). - conclusions or discussions stem from the findings. -a short abstract, not longer than one page -do not include tables, figures, or references in an abstract. - check with your professor or mentor
