Description This review paper summarises research on the use of interactional metadiscourse in dissertations/theses by master’s and PhD students. A keyword search in the Scopus database identified ten relevant research articles with corpus-based studies from eight countries. The paper concludes that the topic of metadiscourse remains underresearched in these genres, particularly in European contexts.
