摘要：are regarded as valuable tools in assessing the relevance of documents
during information retrieval. The determination of abstract compliance based on
international standards is one of the methods which can be used for generating
qualified information, reducing costs and establishing aligned coordination with
international standards. Further, ANSI/NISO Z39.14 standard is one of the
international standards presented by NISO committee which its final amendment
was published in March 2015 and proposed some principles in terms of content and
structural elements of different sources like theses. For this purpose, the present
study aimed to evaluate the abstracts of Persian theses in different educational
levels with ANSI/NISO Z39.14 standard at Shahid Beheshti University of Medical
Sciences (SBMU) during 2010-2014. 386 Persian abstracts were selected from
among the abstracts in master’s theses, PhD dissertations, Medical Doctorate(MD)
and specialized medicine theses at different schools. The standard texts of
ANSI/NISO Z39.14 (R2015) were used as the instrument including 15 structural
and 5 content elements. Results indicated that there was a significant difference
between the consistency of structural and content elements of the standards among
the abstracts of the selected theses at different educational levels in different
schools. The results suggest that an instructional and a coherent model should be
developed, based on international and latest edition standards such as
ANSI/NISOZ39.14 guideline for abstracts which are necessary to be followed by
all centers in order to improve the style of writing abstracts.
