Pastoral Leadership
Strategies in the Southern Baptist Church for Sustaining Membership
Abstract
Use the
following guidelines when writing the abstract. Begin with a wow statement illuminating the problem
under study. Identify the design (case study, phenomenological,
quasi-experimental, correlation) Note: Do not mention the method
(qualitative/quantitative) in the abstract. Identify the study population and
geographical location. Identify the theoretical (quantitative) or conceptual
framework (qualitative) that grounded the study; in APA style,
theory/conceptual framework names are lower case. Describe the data collection
process (e.g., interviews, surveys, questionnaires). Describe the data analysis
process (e.g., modified van Kaam method to identify themes in qualitative
studies or t test, ANOVA, or multiple
regression in quantitative studies). Do not mention software used. Identify two
or three themes that morphed from the study (qualitative). Present the
statistical results for each research question (quantitative studies). Describe
how these data may contribute to social change (use the word social change and
identify who specifically may benefit). Ensure the first line in the abstract
is not indented. Ensure abstract does not exceed one page. Use plural verbs
with data (e.g., the data were).
Write all numbers as digits (i.e., 1, 2, 10, 20) and not spelled out unless at
the beginning of a sentence. Add an abbreviation in parentheses after spelling
out a term in full only if the abbreviation is used again in the abstract.
