2022, Journal of English for Academic PurposesCitation Excerpt :Hartley (2007) showed disciplinary differences in the use of colons, for instance, with a greater use in the arts than in the sciences and also in the work of single authors than multiple authors. Haggan (2004) concurs, showing colons to comprise 61% of titles in literature journals compared with less than 30% in linguistics and sciences. Nagano (2015) and Milojevic (2017) argue that the length of titles also differs between disciplines, being longer in the hard sciences such as medicine than the discursive sciences such as sociology.
