==Benefits== The IMRAD structure has proved successful because it facilitates literature review, allowing readers to navigate articles more quickly to locate material relevant to their purpose.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Burrough-Boenisch|first=J|title=International Reading Strategies for IMRD Articles|journal=Written Communication|year=1999|volume=16|issue=3|pages=296β316|doi=10.1177/0741088399016003002|s2cid=145686459|doi-access=}}</ref> But the neat order of IMRAD rarely corresponds to the actual sequence of events or ideas of the research presented; the IMRAD structure effectively supports a reordering that eliminates unnecessary detail, and allows the reader to assess a well-ordered and noise-free presentation of the relevant and significant information. It allows the most relevant information to be presented clearly and logically to the readership, by summarizing the research process in an ideal sequence and without unnecessary detail.
