بررسي تطبيقي نشانگرهاي فراگفتماني و تحليل بلاغي بخش چكيده در پايان نامه هاي دكتري دانشجويان بين المللي و محلي رشته زبانشناسي كاربردي

Writing that is logical and easy for readers to understand is essential for effective academic communication. One of the key features of effective writing is the use of metadiscourse markers. The purpose of the present study is to analyze the abstract sections of applied linguistics PhD dissertations from the perspective of metadiscourse markers, focusing on their use within each move. This study investigates how interactive and interactional metadiscourse markers are employed by PhD students, and examines the rhetorical structure and use of these markers in each move of abstracts written by both local and international PhD students. Hyland’s (2005) model, which examines interactive and interactional metadiscourse markers, is used to study these markers. Additionally, Hyland’s (2000) five moves framework is employed to identify the rhetorical structure of the selected abstracts. Data were collected from 100 PhD theses abstracts in applied linguistics, with 50 theses chosen from native local students and 50 from international students. Findings indicate that international PhD students use interactive markers more frequently than their Local counterparts, with transitions and endophorics being particularly preva‎lent. Among interactional markers, hedges, followed by boosters and attitude markers, are used frequently. Move analysis revealed that both local and international students predominantly use metadiscourse markers in Move 5 (Conclusion) and Move 3 (Method). The implications of this study suggest that future researchers should use metadiscourse markers more purposefully in their academic writing and pay closer attention to the rhetorical structure of their texts.
