4. Sections Of An Abstract
There are several sections that need to be included:
background, methods, results and conclusions.
Sometimes different universities require slightly
different titles for the sections, so check with your
tutor about this.
5. BACKGROUND
This section should be no longer than two or three
sentences and should shortly describe the
following:
Information that is already available
to the reader about the topic
Connection between available
information and the research paper
(what needs to be examined by you) In some cases background is written in one
sentence; the length really depends on the
length of entire paper. The main purpose of
this section is to provide the reader with
background information about the subject
and provide a smooth transition to the next
section. Please pay attention to the length
of your abstract because the more space
you use for it, the less space will be there
for presentation of the results.
6. METHODS OF STUDY
The main purpose of this section is to show the
reader what have you done in order to prove your
point, and how did you do it.
There are mandatory elements which
should be included, such as sample size,
duration of study, and numbers of people
in groups and so on.
For example, if you are writing a
paper on medical topic, you may
include information about means of
gathering, sample sizes in various
groups, experiments setting (if
necessary), time of the study and
instruments that were used on
patients and so on.
7. RESULTS OF THE FINDINGS
This section is considered to be the most
important, because professors expect the highest
quality possible.
Naturally, it is the longest part of the
abstract and should include as much
relevant information as it can.
Let’s continue with medical
example: here you may include the
number if people that were
participating in your study, drop
rates, results of your primary and
secondary analysis, existing risks,
limitation of the study and standard
variations.
8. CONCLUSIONS
That’s the “lesson” part of the abstract: it should
convey outcomes of the study as precise as
possible.
Describe primary results of the research
and secondary findings and include
perspective data on the subject.
It is recommended not to claim about
something that presented data can
prove because writers should be
trusted by readers.
