    literature:
    Writing an abstract
    Part-1

    Writing skills
    Standard of writing an abstract
    Scientific literature: Writing an
    abstract

     This chapter isn’t intended to guide


    you to be a professional Author of
    scientific journals
     You will learn how to write an
    informative abstract
     Remember:
     Do not write an abstract in your own
    language first then translate it into
    English, instead, do it in English directly.
    How to do so

    • Pick up out of these references (we’re going


    to discuss) or
    • Pick up out of the journal that you want to
    work with (we have some examples to
    show)
    • Find out a scientific paper from which it has
    some resources that really close to the
    abstract you are going to construct.
    • However, a standard form to write an
    abstract should be as the following:
    The standard form of writing an abstract
    “A title”& “Word count”

    • First of all; an abstract must have “A title”:


    – The title of the article should be concise but informative
    – You need to put a lot of thought in to the title of the article
    • Second of all; a written abstract should consider about
    “word count”:
    – Construct of no more than 150-300 words (depends on the
    journal)
    – An abstract is a synopsis , not the introduction to the
    article
    – An abstract should answer the question: “What should
    readers know after reading the article”
    – Most journal recommend that an abstract is divided into
    four paragraphs
    The standard form of writing an
    abstract
    “The four paragraphs”

    Heading with as the following:


    1.“Objective”:
    2.“Materials & methods”:
    3.“Results”:
    4.“Conclusion”:
     “Keywords”:
    Objective; Materials & Methods; Results; Conclusion + ended with some Keyword s
    The standard form of writing an
    abstract
    “objective”
    • The “objective "must state clearly (choose
    one):
    – The purpose of the study or investigation;
    – The hypothesis being tested (if any);
    – The procedures being evaluated;
    • Notice that:
    – Very often you may construct the sentence
    beginning with an infinitive tense (the sentence
    that start with “ to+verb 1”)
    – Here are some examples:

    the sentence start with “ to + verb 1”


    The standard form of writing an
    abstract
    “objective”

    To establish …, to perform …., to study …,to design …, to anlyze …,to test …, to define …, to
    illustrate …, to describe ….
    The standard form of writing an
    abstract
    “objective”

    The aim …, the purpose …,the objective …, the goal … + was to …..
    The standard form of writing an abstract
    “objective + a backgroud sentence to introduce the
    aim of the study”

    Introducing a brief background before stating the objective of the study


    The standard form of writing an abstract
    “objective + a backgroud sentence to introduce the
    aim of the study”

    • The clues:
    – The introductory sentence should convey the nature &
    the purpose of work, quotes the relevant literatures in
    within
    – Put strictly pertinent background information necessary
    why the topic is important
    – Give a good reasons as references that inform the
    reader as to why you undertook your study
    • Notice that:
    – Do not review literature extensively
    – The final paragraph should clearly state the aim
    of your study

    Introducing a brief background before stating the objective of the study
