Abstract
It is acknowledged that research articles are a common channel of communication and dissemination of knowledge among scholars. Of all the sections in research articles, abstracts play a distinctly pivotal role, determining the acceptance, or rejection, of article publication at the initial stage. Moreover, abstracts facilitate the task of information retrieval by capturing major highlights of the articles. Even though there seems to be a general structural organization prevailing in abstracts, it remains to be investigated if abstracts from different sub-disciplines associated with a single academic field display variation in their structural organization. To address this question, first, two sizable datasets representing two sub-disciplines of civil and biomedical engineering were compiled. Subsequently, the datasets were analyzed by genre analysis to identify the “moves” which made up the abstracts. Although the two datasets generally showed a common structural organization of the same set of moves, they displayed significant differences, particularly with regard to the frequent use of certain moves in certain sub-disciplines. The variation identified is possibly attributed to the inherent nature and expectations of each sub-discipline. This study bears crucial pedagogical implications towards the development and design of an academic writing course. To successfully prepare students for professional communication in their future undertakings, the course should aim at not only keeping students abreast of the prevailing structural organization but also sharpening their awareness of the impact of diverse sub-disciplines.
1. Introduction It is acknowledged that research articles
(RAs) are one of the common channels of communication and dissemination of knowledge among scholars across disciplines. Of all the sections typically found in RAs,abstracts are one of the most important. First, abstracts play a distinctly pivotal role, determining the acceptance or rejection of article publication at the initial stage [1]. Moreover, abstracts facilitate the task of information retrieval by capturing major highlights of the articles [2]. Finally, the
availability of abstracts expedites the dissemination of knowledge and discoveries. English has attained the status of the primary language for international communication in business, education, and tourism. Scholars from different linguistic backgrounds are compelled to engage in their academic activities in English. As a result, scholars are pushed to publish in international journals for their academic growth and success. Scholars who are not English native speakers find the task of writing successful abstracts daunting and challenging.

Swales’ genre analysis [3] has provided scholars a tool to embark on the task of writing RAs, especially to begin with the introduction section of RAs. Precisely, genre analysis considers that a text type is structurally constructed, consisting of text segments for particular communicative functions. The implementation of genre analysis analyzing the introduction section has been extended to other RA sections, including the RA abstract section. Genre-based studies have congruently shown that each text type generally shares a structural organization. At this juncture, it should be noted that despite a multitude of studies adopting genre analysis as a theoretical framework, the application of the framework seems to display certain weaknesses in several ways. For instance, the datasets analyzed can be rather small. To be precise, for instance, Cross and Oppenheim analyzed a set of only 12 abstracts [2], possibly resulting in limited generalization of the findings. Additionally, the selection of the texts to be analyzed was not systematic or objective. To elaborate, for instance, in another study, 80 abstracts were randomly selected from “two leading international journals in the field of experimental phonetics and experimental psychology” [4]. In this particular study, without specific criteria regarding the journal selection and the absence of evidence justifying the status of the journals, it remains to be questionable whether the journals selected do actually represent leading international ones as claimed by the author.Therefore, in order to finally obtain a valid description of both the structure and organization of the texts analyzed, these two limitations, among other factors, need to be addressed by subsequent studies. Despite some pertinent problems related to the dataset selection and compilation, genre-based studies are illuminating,providing insight into how RA texts are written in different disciplines. For instance, a number of studies across disciplines reveal that the abstract genre in general seems to be made up of a number of moves. However, disciplinary variation is discernible [5] - [11].
At this point, based on previous genre-based studies [5] – [11], despite a general structural organization prevailing in RAabstracts, it remains to be investigated if abstracts from different sub-disciplines associated with a single discipline display variation in their structural organization. The field of engineering thus provides an initial impetus for this study. As known, Engineering is a well-established discipline, encapsulating a substantial number of sub-disciplines.
In this paper, the abstracts of two engineering sub-disciplines were analyzed using genre analysis: civil engineering (CV) and biomedical engineering (BM). These two sub-disciplines are quite distinct in their nature, focus, and history. Therefore, it is interesting to examine whether the two sub-disciplines are similar or different as far as the abstract texts are concerned. The differences identified by genre analysis potentially highlight the impact of sub-disciplines on how the abstract texts are written. The findings are pedagogically beneficial to prepare novice scholars for academic pursuits in their respective sub-disciplines.
2. Methods To address the question whether the
abstracts of different engineering sub-disciplines share the same structural organization, two sizable datasets representing CV and BM were compiled. To assure the abstracts represent those from high quality journals of the sub-disciplines, the five journals with the top impact factors of each sub-discipline were identified. From each journal, 12 abstracts were systematically selected to evenly distribute the entire publication year. In short, 60 abstracts from each sub-discipline were compiled. At this juncture, it should be noted that the dataset compilation did not take into consideration the length of the abstracts, the focus of the research presented, the nature of the studies, and the nationality of the author(s).
Subsequently, the two datasets were analyzed by genre analysis to identify the structural organization consisting of “moves”
or text segments which perform communicative functions. The move frequencies across the two sub-disciplines were compared and contrasted, with regard to the move sequence and the frequencies of occurrence of individual moves. Finally, multiple t-tests were conducted to identify whether there were significant differences in the move frequencies across the datasets.
3. Results The analysis revealed that the abstracts in
CV and BM consist of a maximum of five moves: Background (B), Purpose (P), Methods (M), Results (R), and Discussion (D). The labels of the moves reflect their principal communicative functions. To illustrate, the two abstracts below from CV and BM, respectively, consist of five moves. The demarcation of the abstracts into moves is marked by // with the names of the moves assigned, and the linguistic features signaling the moves are highlighted in bold. The sentences in the abstracts are numbered (e.g., S1, S2, S3) for the ease of reference. Here is the example from CV: Move B (S1) Few case studies areavailable on stream water quality monitoring during road construction, especially in highly protected watersheds. (S2) Recent reconstruction of two tunnels and approach roads in the great smoky mountains national park potentially could have impacted the adjacent stream due to sediment and acid-generating geology.// Move P (S3) Todetermine whether impact occurred,// Move M grab and passive sampling were conducted at stream sites above and below each construction area before, during and after construction. (S4) Performance of individual structural best management practises (BMPs) was also monitored. //Move R (S5) Due to the small disturbance area, the results showed that tunnelreconstruction had no statistical impact on stream water quality based on comparison of upstream and downstream pH and suspended solids. (S6) Surprisingly, median suspended solids concentrations for the stream sampling locations were lowest during construction, //Move D ostensibly because construction
occurred in winter when the ground was frozen. (S7) Differences in stream pH and water quality between construction and pre and post construction phases were attributed to normal seasonal variation. (S8) BMP performance was mixed; the efficiency of check dams was dependent upon their ability to pond water. As shown, the abstract from CV displays a set of five moves. Now consider the next abstract from BM, which also displays a set of five moves.
Move B (S1) It is commonly accepted that locomotor-related neuronal circuitry resides in the lumbosacral spinal cord. (S2) Phramacological agents, epidural electrical stimulation, and sensory stimulation can be used to activate these intrinsic networks in in vitro neonatal and in vivo cat preparations.//Move P (S3) In this study, we investigatedthe use of low-level tonic intraspinal microstimulation (ISMS) as a means of activating spinal locomotor networks in adult cats with complete spinal transections.// Move M (S4) Trains of low-amplitude electrical pulses were delivered to the spinal cord via groups of fine microwires implanted in the ventral horns of the lumbosacral enlargement.// Move R (S5) In contrast to published reports, tonic ISMS applied through microwires in the caudal regions of the lumbosacral enlargement (L7-S1) wasmore effective in eliciting alternating movements in the hindlimbs than stimulation in the rostral regions.// Move D (S6) Possible mechanisms of action of tonic ISMS include depolarization of locally oscillating networks in the lumbosacral cord, backfiring of primary afferents, or activation of propriospinal neurons. As demarcated above, both abstracts congruently begin with Move B (Background), establishing current and common knowledge of the topic as signaled by the verb of state (are) and the extra-posed it construction (It is accepted that) in CV and BM, respectively. However, in some abstracts, this move can perform the function of claiming the significance of the topic. In short, it can be claimed that Move B, if used, occupies the initial position of the abstract,

or text segments which perform communicative functions. The move frequencies across the two sub-disciplines were compared and contrasted, with regard to the move sequence and the frequencies of occurrence of individual moves. Finally, multiple t-tests were conducted to identify whether there were significant differences in the move frequencies across the datasets.

and it functions to situate the research within the scientific community. Following Move B is Move P (Purpose), in which a purposive statement is expressed using the phrases beginning with infinitive to verb clause (To determine whether) in CVand the deictic expression (this study), the pronoun (we), and the verb (investigated) inBM.
Then, Move M (Methods) describes methodological procedures employed in the studies, being recognized by the passive construction: were conducted and was monitored in CV and were delivered in BM. Next is Move R (Results), in which the findings are presented. As shown, in CV, this move is signaled by the clause the results showed that. However, in BM, the result was compared with that generated from previous studies and was found to be more effective. Finally, both abstracts conclude with Move D (Discussion). In CV, this move provides explanatory accounts to the findings, as recognized by the key words because and were attributed to. Similarly,Move D in BM identifies potentialmechanisms responsible for the finding by using the hedging device of possible. The two exemplified abstracts from CV and BM display the use of five constituent moves. However, this does not imply that all of the 120 abstracts analyzed in this study follow the five move sequence. Variation can be observed including the frequency of individual moves, the sequence of the moves, and also the use of linguistic features. The following section presents two textual examples of individual moves from the two abstract datasets, CV and BM, respectively. Linguistic features indicating the functions of moves are highlighted, justifying their communicative functions.
3.1 Move Background (B) (1) Intelligent vision-based traffic surveillance systems are assuming an increasingly important role in highway monitoring and road management schemes. (2) Three-dimensional (3-D) recording of the surface of the human body or anatomical areas has gained importance in many medical specialties. Thus, it is important to
determine scanner precision and accuracy in defined medical applications and to establish standards for the recording procedure. Based on the two excerpts, Move B congruently situates the studies being presented by claiming the importance of the research topics. Consequently, the highlighted words are those conveying the importance of the topics, be they important(an adjective) or importance (a noun). 3.2 Move Purpose (P) (3) Real-time identification of freeway segments with high crash potential is addressed in this study. (4) The study was designed to determine whether the novel spatial geometry of macroporous condensed poly (tetrafluoroethylene) (cPTFE) favorably affects the in vivo repair process.
Move P states the objective of the study. Lexical items used to serve this function include the words addressed and to determine. As shown, the deictic expression this study isused to indicate specifically the objective of the study. Additionally, Move P can state the research question being addressed by the current study by the word whether.
3.3 Move Methods (M) (5) Experiments were conducted usingtwo different nozzles and three tail-water depths. (6) The impedance of the electrode interface was monitored for changes due to insertion as well as repetitive delivery of current pulses. Move M describes the methodology adopted by the study. The function of this move is realized by the use of research activity verbs (were conducted and was monitored) in past tense and passive voice. Moreover, the use of jargon terms in the field is prevalent in this move, including nozzles and three tail-water depths in CV; andimpedance, electrode interface, and current pulses in BM.
3.4 Move Results (R) (7) We show that a relatively small number of such salient geometric features characterizes the surface well for various similarity applications.
(8) For all markers but bite acids, the single-treatment as well as the overall treatment phrase reduction ratios obtained with PROM were significantly highercompared with those obtained with MARS.
In (7), the pronoun we and the verb showare used to state the result in CV. In BM, the results are not only presented but also compared (were significantly higher). 3.5 Move Discussion (D) (9) Potential applications include video editing, surveillance summarization, assembly instructions, composition of graphic novels, and illustration of camera technique for film studies. (10) Collectively, these results provide insight into the potential mechanisms responsible for the particulate activation of osteoblast chemoskine expression. As shown, Move D in both CV and BM, respectively, suggest practical applications (potential applications and provide insight into) of the results of the studies.
In summary, genre analysis conducted on 120 abstracts revealed that the set of five moves, if all occur, are likely to be in the sequence of B-P-M-R-D across the two sub-disciplines. The opening move is Move B. Move P, if used, is found after Move B, but before Move M. Finally, Move D is usually a closing move and follows Move R. Not all abstracts display the use of five moves. That is, some moves are more frequent than the others. Therefore, to investigate how stable each move was in each dataset, theirfrequencies of occurrence were recorded. Finally, to compare whether the two datasets display significant preferences for particular moves, multiple t-tests were conducted on the frequencies of individual moves across the sub-disciplines. The results are summarized in the following table.
For the frequencies of occurrence, all five moves were used more frequently in BM than in CV. Multiple t-test results suggested that the frequencies of the five moves across the datasets are significantly different (p > .001). That is, every move in BM was significantly more frequent than in CV. Certain similarities across the two sub-disciplines emerge. Based on the numbers presented in
the table, the two datasets are congruent with regard to their preference of Move M and Move R. Both have the highest frequencies of occurrence over 90%. Move P is illuminating, demonstrating its substantial preference in BM (about 83%), but not in CV (only about 68%). In addition, Move B and Move D are the least preferred moves. That is, Move B was used in 60 and 70% of occurrence in CV and BM, respectively. Similarly, the next least frequent move is Move D, with 67 and 78% in CV and BM. In short, the findings suggest disciplinary preference in each sub-discipline.

4. Discussion and conclusion Although the two datasets generally
display a common structural organization of five moves, they reveal certain significant differences. The significant variation in the frequencies of occurrence across the dataset is possibly attributed to the inherent nature and expectations of each sub-discipline. As shown, among the three moves in the two datasets (Moves M, R, and P), Move P in BM is relatively much more frequent, compared with that of CV. An explanation to this finding is that BM is a hybrid field of engineering and medicine, focusing on inventing devices that help improve human life quality. In BM, human lives are at stake. Therefore, in a BM experiment, the purposes must be explicitly stated so that stakeholders are aware of possible unpleasant and unexpected outcomes.

design of an academic writing course. To successfully prepare students for professional communication in their future undertakings, the course should aim at not only keeping students abreast of the prevailing structural organization but also sharpening their awareness of the impact of diverse sub-disciplines. As shown, in CV and BM, Moves P, M, and R are three crucial moves. Therefore, teachers and students in an academic writing course should devote substantial time on these moves. Meanwhile, as demonstrated, abstract writing is flexible, allowing authors to employ specific moves that accommodate space allocated and the nature of the study. Caveats are in order. When the datasets were compiled, a number of factors related to the abstracts were not considered including length, research topics, and nationality of the authors. Finally, this study did not focus on the linguistic features used to express individual moves which might be different across sub-disciplines.
