Abstract

Background: Reading comprehension (qirā’ah) is a fundamental skill in learning Arabic as a foreign language. As the complexity of texts and the demands of critical literacy increase, there is a need for a conceptual model that can map the cognitive and epistemic processes involved in understanding Arabic texts. Purpose: This study explores the technical potential of the Reference Epistemological Model (REM) in enhancing students' qirā’ah comprehension. Method: This study employs a qualitative approach with an exploratory case study design. Data were collected through text-based comprehension tests using authentic materials, semi-structured interviews, structured observations, and classroom documentation. Thematic analysis results indicate that the REM is effective in identifying students’ conceptual representations, epistemic activities, and epistemic stances while reading Arabic texts. Results and Discussion: The main findings indicate that the majority of students are still at the stage of literal comprehension and have not yet fully activated inferential and reflective strategies in reading. The REM has potential as both a diagnostic and pedagogical framework for developing qirā’ah assessment, constructing authentic evaluation rubrics, and designing learning strategies based on deep meaning-making. Conclusions and Implications: Contains one to two important sentences. This section provides a conclusion about the results of the research and what these results mean for us today, as well as the implications of the suggested research results for future research on the topic.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and compare the rhetorical move structures of Arabic-language journal article abstracts indexed in Scopus and Sinta based on Hyland’s (2000) five-move model. A genre analysis framework using a comparative corpus linguistics method was employed to examine rhetorical structures and linguistic features in academic abstracts. The corpus consists of 35 journal article abstracts selected through purposive sampling, covering Scopus (Q1, Q3, Q4) and Sinta (S1–S6) journals. The data were analyzed to identify the frequency and distribution of each rhetorical move. The findings show high consistency (>86%) in Purpose (Move 2), Method (Move 3), and Product (Move 4) across both groups. Variations appear in contextualization and concluding elements. Sinta journals show higher Move 1 frequency (90%), whereas Scopus journals show lower Move 1 (40%) and higher Move 5 (80%). Differences were identified in rhetorical preferences, particularly in the balance between background information and concluding statements. Move 5 occurred less frequently in the Sinta corpus than in internationally indexed journals, indicating differences in rhetorical emphasis between national and international publication contexts. These findings suggest that internationally indexed journals tend to emphasize research implications and concluding remarks more consistently. Furthermore, the findings may serve as a useful reference for researchers and students in improving the effectiveness and quality of academic abstract writing. The study also contributes to genre analysis research by providing empirical data on rhetorical practices in Arabic-language academic publishing contexts.
