Good Writing Practice

Authors: Wendy Kingdom, Amy Whereat

Paragraph lengthiness and complexity cause a continuity inexplicity (discontinuity), which can be lessened by using forecasting and backcasting markers of the information pattern. Thus, omission of such continuity markers (e.g., a subheading) impedes immediate comprehension. In this article, examples of continuity marker omission are analysed according to the section of a journal article (experimental, contextual), the conceptual component therein, and the type of omitted marker.
