The structure of the two subgenres is essentially the same, the greatest difference being that the review of the literature in theses is much longer. Without the review the length of the rest of the papers is similar and a reasonable comparison can be drawn. Both include the presentation of method, main findings and conclusions. As Table 11 shows, MA theses are generally twice as long as RAs, however, the two differ mainly in the length of their review of the literature. While RAs cite a similar number of references, thesis writers need to explain their resources to demonstrate understanding of the literature, and ability to apply the common terms and linguistic device characteristic of a field of study. RAs have a much denser review of the literature, requiring more skill from the writer to package the information in a way that it is still accessible for the reader.

An MA thesis is not only similar to RA in structure, content and purpose, but is also a pedagogical genre in the sense that a successful thesis is usually a first step in genre acquisition for students hoping to enter a target discourse community. As differences also exist between the two genres, students are not expected to imitate expert writers’ RAs, but can and are indeed expected to borrow ideas, ways of structuring their thoughts, and lexico-grammatical and cohesive features used by experts.
