Turn a small study into a self-contained abstract.
The idea
State the purpose with 本研究は…を検討する, then report the sample and method in the past tense. Give the main finding and finish with its limitation or implication. Keep the plain academic style consistent.
Examples
- 本研究は、読書時間と語彙力の関係を検討する。This study examines the relationship between reading time and vocabulary.
- 大学生100人を対象に、アンケートを実施した。We surveyed 100 university students.
- 週の読書時間とテストの得点を比較した。We compared their weekly reading time with their test scores.
- 読書時間が長い参加者ほど、得点が高い傾向があった。Participants who read longer tended to score higher.
- ただし、この結果は因果関係を示すものではない。However, this result does not establish causation.
- より幅広い標本による追加調査が必要である。Further investigation with a broader sample is needed.
Read-aloud uses a synthetic Japanese voice available on your device. Voice quality and availability vary; it does not assess your pronunciation.
No Japanese device voice is available. You can still read the text and use the linked listening resources.
Watch out
A tendency is an association, not proof of causation. Do not replace 傾向があった with a stronger claim or add results absent from the study.
