Headings or subheadings

Headings and subheadings are short and pithy summaries of the content that follows. They may or may not be complete sentences. Within a document, subheadings generally fall into two categories: generic/instructional (e.g., Abstract, Methods, Results), or narrative/contextual (specific to the subject matter of your content).
