The IMRaD model of scientific articles: what is and how can be applied in the humanities and social sciences?

The IMRaD acronym stands for the terms: Introduction, Methods, Results and Discussion. It is a proposed structure and also a standard expected by most academic journals when accepting manuscripts reporting research results. It is important for novice researchers to know its components, but above all...

It is a proposed structure and also a standard expected by most academic journals when accepting manuscripts reporting research results. It is important for novice researchers to know its components, but above all to interpret its meaning in the human and social sciences as it can help them to be successful in manuscript acceptance. Its components are presented following the APA standards (among other sources) and the possibilities of application to fields other than STEM are discussed, as well as in the case of qualitative methodologies. It is concluded that nothing in the IMR&D model precludes its application to research in the humanities and social sciences. On the other hand, applying IMRaD improves quality transparency of research reports and increases the chances of the manuscript to be accepted by academic journals.Universitat Pompeu Fabra202320232022info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10230/56721http://dx.doi.org/10.31009/hipertext.net.2022.i24.01reponame:Repositorio Digital de la UPFinstname:Universitat Pompeu FabraInglésHipertext.net. 2022;(24):98-103.Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacional (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0)http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:repositori.upf.edu:10230/567212026-06-12T07:21:37Z
