What Is an Abstract?
An abstract is a short statement that describes a larger work (article, book, report). If the article describes an experiment, the abstract will be divided into these sections (called a "structured abstract"):
- Scope
- Purpose
- Methodology
- Results
- Conclusion
It is not a review or an evaluation.
It contains key words found in the larger work, but is not an excerpt form that work.
