Abstract

Expert writers are defined as someone that frequently publish their research articles (hereafter RAs) in reputable journals during their established-career period. Publication in highly reputable journals is an essential part of academic life. Therefore, many academicians are competing to produce articles that can be published in international journals. However, the path to achieving this goal is not easy. This study investigates the rhetorical moves in 16 English RAs written by four highly reputable lecturers from soft and hard science throughout their established-career period. The RAs were chosen randomly from highly reputable journals and were analyzed using a framework from Maswana et al. in 2015. The results revealed that there were moves/steps often present in both soft and hard science articles in some sections, i.e., Move a Step 2 Purpose; Move a Step 3 Methods; Move a Step 4 Results; Move a Step 5 Conclusion; Move 1, Step 1 Reference to established knowledge in the field; Move 7, Step 4 Stating specific findings; and Move 9, Step 1 Stating the main results and significance. However, both disciplines also organize their RAs in different ways, specifically in the Methods section. Move 5 Describing experimental procedure was found to be frequently used in hard science articles rather than in soft science. These results can conclude that the cross-disciplines partly project rhetorical moves in RAs. The findings of this study provide a guideline and overview for expert writers in evaluating their writing and for novice writers in increasing their discourse competence.

Abstract

Abstracts serve as a critical persuasive tool that influences both the peer review process and readers’ perceptions of research quality. While rhetorical moves have been extensively studied across disciplines, limited attention has been given to how rhetorical structures of abstracts are realized and constructed in Scopus-indexed risk management research article associated with a co-authorship network of an established researcher. Thus, this research seeks to identify dominant rhetorical patterns that reflect shared rhetorical norms within the scope. Employing a corpus-based genre analysis combining qualitative move identification with descriptive quantitative analysis, the study utilized snowball sampling and centered on Baruch Fischhoff as a pioneering entry point to curate 100 abstracts. The data were analyzed using Hyland’s (2000) five-move model and Kanoksilapatham’s (2005) salience framework. The findings revealed high structural variability, indicating that the abstracts do not strictly follow a single canonical pattern. Move 1 (Introduction) emerged as the most dominant component (31.15%), while Move 2 (Purpose) was the least frequent (11.51%). At the step level, Move 1 Step 2 (Making topic generalization) and Move 3 Step 3 (Describing procedure and context) both carry the highest rhetorical weight (19.62%), suggesting strong contextualization and methodological transparency. The study provides valuable insights for novice researchers and ESP educators on recurring rhetorical tendencies within the sampled academic network.
