Abstract
Comparison of 39 full texts of articles in the ONTAP Com puter database with their abstracts showed (1) no significant relationship between abstract length and full-text length, (2) a small, but significant, tendency for abstract words and phrases to concentrate at the beginning of the full text, (3) little use in abstracts of longer verbatim word sequences from full texts. Additional results using the RightWriter style checker are also reported.
