The writing essentials for paper abstract

Abstract

The abstract is a necessary additional essay to the paper and plays an important leading role for readers to read the paper. When reviewing a manuscript, the quality of the abstract affects the reviewer’s judgment of the paper to a great extent and plays an important role in whether it will be hired or not. When consulting the literature, the abstract is the first part for readers to read. Most readers understand the main contents and characteristics of the paper by reading the abstract and determining whether it is necessary to read the full text of the paper. More opportunities may be lost if a valuable paper is written simply because the abstract is simple. Because of the importance of abstracts in improving the hit rate of contributions, attracting readers, and increasing the number of searches of papers, the writing of abstracts needs to be revised and refined repeatedly. This paper mainly introduces the structural patterns and writing skills of the abstract.
