Swales' CARS Model

A model developed by Swales to analyze the structure of research article introductions. It consists of 'Moves' that authors use to establish their research territory.

Cross-cultural Influence

The organizational structure in academic writing, such as research articles, can be influenced by cultural differences, leading to variations in how authors from different backgrounds structure their texts.

Framework of Analysis

An analytical tool to examine how writers structure their introductions in academic texts. It breaks down the introduction into smaller components.

Thesis Introduction Research Gap

Study Notes

  • Swales' CARS model has been extensively analyzed in research article introductions across various sub-disciplines.
  • Eliana (2009) compared 20 research article introductions in Brazilian Portuguese and English within applied linguistics, using Swales’ (1990) CARS framework.
  • The study showed that the model was more applicable to English research article introductions than to Brazilian Portuguese ones, indicating cross-cultural influences on the organizational structure of research articles.
  • Irawati, Saukah, & Suharmanto (2018) investigated how 7 Indonesian authors write discussion sections in English and Indonesian research articles published in Indonesian journals.
  • The researchers used Swales’ CARS model (1990) as the framework of analysis.
  • The results indicated that the rhetorical structures of English and Indonesian research articles differed from Swales’ (1990) model.
  • There is limited research on the rhetorical organization of undergraduate thesis introductions.
  • A study by Fudhla, Rozimela, and Ningsih (2014) analyzed Swales’ CARS model in research proposal introductions of English Language Education Study Program students.
  • Fudhla, Rozimela, and Ningsih (2014) did not provide a clear coding of the findings or investigate the lexical and syntactical characteristics of each move and step.
  • It is important to analyze how Swales’ CARS model is applied in thesis introductions written by Indonesian English learners.
