Abstract

Research Article (RA) is the kind of academic publication that all researchers must produce constantly but not necessarily have learned systematically in their university education. RA consists of multiple parts as typically summarized to be IMRAD (Introduction, Method, Result and Discussion) which is a considered to be one of the academic genres. Each of the multiple parts of the RA genre is comprised of one or more sub-genres, which makes the RA genre complex and challenging, especially for novice EST (English for Science and Technology) researchers. As an effort to decode the RA genre in order to help the novice EST researchers, the researchers of this study analyze the sub-genre of “Results” using corpus-based approach, after they analyzed the Abstract, Introduction and Method sub-genres in previous studies. The purpose of this study is threefold: to determine the linguistic features of the common moves (structure) in the “Results” sub-genre of RA using corpus analysis, to compare the linguistic features of “Results” with those of the whole RA, “Introduction”, and “Method”.
