52. Example of a well-written abstract (other than the one by Nobel Laureates)
Manage episode 480976844 series 3493940
Let’s talk about an excellent abstract that I read this week. It was so well written, and I was so excited to read it that I wanted to talk about it with you today. The beauty of it is that the first 3 structural components guide us through the authors’ intention and question very clearly. But there was also a little twist to the structure: we will talk about it, too.
The abstract that we talked about today was from the following paper:
- “A meta-analysis of technology use and cognitive aging”
- Benge & Scullin, Nature Human Behaviour, 2025
- “Online ahead of print” (thus, no volume number or page numbers) as of the date of this episode upload.
- PubMed link: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40229575/
- Journal link: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41562-025-02159-9
We can read its abstract on either of the above websites.
Unfortunately, the other parts of the paper are subscription-based. So, they are accessible, if you or your institutions have a subscription to the journal.
This episode = mini-series: reading-32.
