Abstract

The article exposes the structure of abstracts of published scientific articles, based ona line of research into academic discourse on education; specifically, with relevant textualgenres in this area.

The primary objective is to analyze the internal structure of 194 abstracts of articlespublished in a Venezuelan journal dedicated to education. This was accomplishedthrough micro-sociolinguistic analytical procedures, taking into account evident rhetoricalmovements, such as Introduction (I), Method (M), Results (R) and Conclusions /Recommendations (C).

The outcome of the study, in terms of the structuring of abstracts, suggests a disciplinarycomponent for these texts, one akin to historical- philosophical traditions andremoved from the post-positivist traditions of the social sciences and the humanities.
