  AUTHORS: Yumei Zhu

  KEYWORDS: Diachronic, Hedge, Booster, Rhetoric

  JOURNAL NAME: Open Journal of Social Sciences, Vol.12 No.2, February 28, 2024

  ABSTRACT: This diachronic corpus analysis investigates shifts in hedges and boosters within the “Limitation” rhetoric of Communication Research Articles (RAs). By investigating data from Communication journals of selected two periods, the study reveals a significant increase in the incorporation of limitation rhetoric, hedge markers, and a small increase of boosters. The study contributes insights into evolving scholarly communication, emphasizing the delicate balance between caution and confidence in addressing study limitations.
