Chapter 6 Legitimation Strategies in Hard Science RAs

6.1 Introductory Remarks

This chapter will conduct an analysis on the legitimation strategies in hardscience research articles. The current author chooses chemistry and materials scienceas data. As mentioned in Chapter Three, legitimation strategies are made up of foursub-categories: authorization, moralization, rationalization and mythopoesis. Anoverall view of the frequencies per thousand words of each legitimation strategy isgiven before a comprehensive analysis of the selected hard science research articles.The corpus is extracted from two international journals: Chemistry--A EuropeanJournal and Advanced Materials. Both of them are from Wiley Blackwell. Fiveresearch articles are taken from each journal in a chronological order from 2011 to2015. Each research article’s code number is as follows: CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4 andCH5 stand for five chemistry RAs; AM1, AM2, AM3, AM4 and AM5 stand for fivematerials science RAs.The words number in these five chemistry RAs runs into 10311 words in total,and legitimation strategies in chemistry RAs are used 394 times. So the frequency perthousand words counted 38.21. All these strategies permeate through whole researcharticles. The overall distribution of legitimation strategies in chemistry RAs ispresented in Table 6.1.

Conclusion

Within the framework of legitimation strategies developed by van Leeuwen, thisthesis explores the discursive strategies of legitimation and their typical realizations insoft science and hard science research articles. It demonstrates how the strategies oflegitimation are utilized to contribute to the persuasiveness of RAs and reveals thedifferences between hard science and soft science in the application of differentlegitimation strategies.This thesis explores the differences in legitimation strategies between softscience and hard science RAs. Based on our analysis of HS and SS RAs, our tentativefindings are listed as follows:Firstly, there are abundant legitimation strategiess in research articles, which areeffective and useful in establishing legitimation and in achieving the persuasivepurpose of getting acceptance from readers. legitimation strategies are rarely usedseparately. Combinations of different legitimation strategies permeate researcharticles. The legitiamtion strategies authors of RAs use are very different. Though thewhole words number of SS RAs is more than that of HS RAs, the frequency perthousand words of legitimation strategies in hard scien本论文由英语论文网提供整理，提供论文代写，英语论文代写，代写论文，代写英语论文，代写留学生论文，代写英文论文，留学生论文代写相关核心关键词搜索。
