Briefly explain the problem, methodology, significant findings, and main conclusion of the research. The abstract should consist of four parts describing the purpose, method, results, and conclusion. Results should indicate key frequencies, percentages, and findings.

Keywords: Keywords are important for discoverability as they help readers find your article. Keywords should consist of five or six words that address the entire article.
