On the basis of this theorisation from sociology of disciplines as different kinds of knowledge structures we might expect to find differences in the ways in which research writers from different disciplines go about constructing a warrant for their research in the introductions to their research papers If they come from disciplinary homes that view knowledge differently and have different ways of accumulating knowledge then we might expect that they would engage differently with other sources of knowledge in the construction of their research warrants. We might expect to find evidence in their writing of differences in degrees of integration or of segmentationOn the basis of this theorisation from sociology of disciplines as different kinds of knowledge structures … we might expect to find differences in the ways in which research writers from different disciplines go about constructing a warrant for their research in the introductions to their research papers.
