What to include in an abstract

The format of your abstract will depend on the discipline in which you are working. However, all abstracts generally cover the following five sections:

1. Reason for writing:
What is the importance of the research? Why would a reader be interested in the larger work?

2. Problem:
What problem does this work attempt to solve? What is the scope of the project? What is the main argument, thesis or claim?

3. Methodology:
An abstract of a scientific work may include specific models or approaches used in the larger study. Other abstracts may describe the types of evidence used in the research.

4. Results:
An abstract of a scientific work may include specific data that indicates the results of the project. Other abstracts may discuss the findings in a more general way.

5. Implications:
How does this work add to the body of knowledge on the topic? Are there any practical or theoretical applications from your findings or implications for future research?

How to Write a Good Abstract

How do I write an abstract?

The format of your abstract will depend on the work being abstracted. An abstract of a scientific research paper will contain elements not found in an abstract of a literature article, and vice versa. However, all abstracts share several mandatory components, and there are also some optional parts that you can decide to include or not. When preparing to draft your abstract, keep the following key process elements in mind:

  1. Reason for writing: What is the importance of the research? Why would a reader be interested in the larger work?
  2. Problem: What problem does this work attempt to solve? What is the scope of the project? What is the main argument/thesis/claim?
  3. Methodology: An abstract of a scientific work may include specific models or approaches used in the larger study. Other abstracts may describe the types of evidence used in the research.
  4. Results: Again, an abstract of a scientific work may include specific data that indicates the results of the project. Other abstracts may discuss the findings in a more general way.
  5. Implications: What changes should be implemented as a result of the findings of the work? How does this work add to the body of knowledge on the topic?

How to measure Journal Impact Factor Quartile

The Journal Impact Factor quartile is the quotient of a journal’s rank in category (X) and the total number of journals in the category (Y), so that (X / Y) = Percentile Rank Z.

Q1: 0.0 < Z ≤ 0.25

Q2: 0.25 < Z ≤ 0.5

Q3: 0.5 < Z ≤ 0.75

Q4: 0.75 < Z
