dc.description.abstractAcademic writing is important for writers to persuade readers on their claims, which is why theliterature is full of studies aiming to improve academic writing and making suggestions regardinghow the writing style should be. However, the missing point as to this important issue is that theylargely investigate the issue of writing in terms of linguistic, and overlook the extralinguistic factors,or merely investigate a single issue without considering its ensuing ramifications; for example, gendereffect on discourse. On the other hand, this study investigates gender effect together with its possibleimpact on the change of discourse and the style of writing which is crucial to have an impact on theaudience. Also, this study aims to draw attention on extralinguistic factors affecting academic writing.This study showed that academic writing is not independent of the effect of gender because thediscourse style of a female and male author seems to be different from each other. Furthermore, apartfrom the effect of gender, extralinguistic factors like social and intrapersonal parameters play animportant role in determining the discourse of the author, and accordingly the writing style. Thisstudy calls further studies in order to reveal rhetoric differences and the effect of gender on morespecific linguistic components.
