Writing Ideas
Readability of Manuscript
According to Tarshis
Umbrella: the general or core ideas one is trying to get across.
Big thought in writing: specific ideas or images that fall within the realm of umbrella thoughts and serve to reinforce, clarify, or elaborate upon the umbrella.
Little thoughts: ideas or images whose chief function is to reinforce big thoughts.
Attention or interest thoughts: ideas whose purposes are to keep the reader on track to organize ideas, and to keep an individual's attention
Voice, Tense, and ''Fat''
According to Ross Larson
If the subject acts, the voice is active.
If the subject is acted on, the voice is passive.
A past tense represents a commonly used form in quantitative research.
Fat refers to additional words that are unnecessary to convey the meaning of ideas and need to be edited out.
