“…The application of M1 is only found in abstracts 04, 13, 15, 16, and 17. This is also different from Djuwari's (2009) findings which concludes that all of the abstracts he analyzed in his study, 36 (80%) abstracts use Move 1. Thus, it can be said that the abstract writers in this study are likely to lack for awareness of the important function of Move 1 has in the abstract composition.…”

“…Involving the terms "art, skill, techniques, and method" of writing, rhetoric has drawn many researchers' interest in conducting their studies and analysis on it. Therefore, a great amount of studies on the rhetoric of academic writing concerning different sections has been done increasingly in recent years, such as on the Introduction section (Basthomi, 2006a;Samraj, 2002Samraj, , 2008Swales, 1981Swales, , 1990Zeng, 2009); on the Abstract section (Anderson, et al, 1997;Basthomi, 2006b;Djuwari, 2009;Dong and Xue, 2010;Junining, 2003;Martin, 2003;Melander, et al, 1997;Pho, 2008;Salager-Meyer, 1990, 1992Samraj, 2005); and few studies focusing on the Discussion section (Dudley-Evans, 1997;Holmes, 1997;Peacock, 2002). From the examples of studies aforementioned, the rhetoric of an abstract attracts particular attention from many researchers.…”

Rhetoric in an abstract writing literally means the techniques a writer might use to deliver complicated information in a limited amount of space effectively and intentionally. However, as being non-native speaking (NNS) writers, Indonesian EFL Graduate students often have difficulties in producing, organizing, and delivering ideas of an abstract into widely accepted international standard of English academic writing conventions. This study describes the nature and characteristics of the rhetoric of thesis abstract focusing on the moves-step(s) written by Indonesian EFL Graduate Students of Palangka Raya University. The model proposed by Samraj (2002) consisting of five moves: Move 1– Situating the Research, Move 2–Purpose, Move 3–Methods, Move 4–Results, and Move 5–Conclusion was used as a general guideline to analyze the moves-step(s) of the abstracts. The findings of the study show that three textual spaces: M2-Purpose, M3-Methods, and M4-Results are compulsory while the other two (M1-Situating the Research and M5-Conclusion) are optional; and the rhetorical pattern mostly employed in the abstracts is PMRC or M2-M3-M4-M5. However, in realizing the rhetorical strategies of the abstracts, a great deal of first language rhetorical interference (such as redundancy use of steps particularly in M2, reordering or non-linear patterns of steps mostly the steps in M3, the overlap function between moves especially between M4 and M5, the low occurrence of M1, and the repeated use of embedding moves particularly the embedment of M2 and M3) is discovered among the moves or the steps forming each move.

“…The utilization of the genre approach in research was pioneered by influential scholars like Swales (1990) and Bhatia (1993), as well as Hyland (2008), Djuwari (2009), andBhatia (2012). Genre, in this context, refers to communicative events with specific communicative purposes embraced by the community members.…”

“…The process of analysis is as follows. First, each abstract RAS is identified the passive verbal and grouped into each Move, such as Move 1 (situating the topic), Move 2 (expressing the purpose of the research), Move 3 (expressing Methodology), Move 4 (expressing the result of the research), and Move 5 (Occlusion or recommendation) (Djuwari, 2009(Djuwari, , 2013Hyland, 2008;Swales, 1990).

Many authors often receive notifications while typing sentences on their computers and checking grammar using the review and spelling checking menu. These notifications usually appear when sentences are in the passive voice, prompting the authors to consider rewriting them in the active voice. In the abstract of research journal articles, some authors also question whether they should stick to using active sentences. This study aims to investigate the prevalence of passive verbal in abstract research articles (RAS) by the international journal authors, with the sample through purposive technique. It is assumed that all the articles, having been published, underwent blind review, ensuring the publishable scientifically in their status as research articles. The data for analysis were collected from 20 of research articles that met specific criteria, such as being published in international journals. The results indicate that the authors use passive verbal mostly in Move 3 (methodology) and Move 4 (results of the research). Another evidence, the more passive verbal used the more efficient the abstract is. It is advisable to use passive verbal for writing research article abstract for making it efficient
