Results and Discussion
Research Result * The ultimate objective (key component) of scientific research * One of the four major sections that constitute the main body of the research * Presents all the data collected and accumulated, together with the statistical treatments and analyses without discussing the implications of the findings. * Consists of the observations and measurement recorded while conducting the process and procedures describe in the Methodology section * It must address the questions raised and the hypotheses formulated in the beginning of the research
QUALITIES of GOOD RESULT
1. CONCISE - summarized the results in a detail and comprehensive way the experimental outcomes and statistical results of the study
2. ACCURATE -Data should not be manipulated. -Researchers must be cautious and careful in presenting the gathered results
3. INCLUSIVE - Must include not only affirmative data but also the negative result, (e.g. experimental errors that may have a significant bearing in your conclusion based on the results gathered)
4. SYSTEMATIC - Data presentation must be done in a logically; in a way that it can be easily understood. - Usage of legends explaining what are being summarized. 5. RELEVANT- Results should compliment and be related to the hypotheses and problems the research is trying to address
FORMS of RESULT PRESENTATION * Numerical Presentation * Graphical Presentation * Written Text
Two Basic ways of Organizing Results * Presenting all the results and then the discussion * Presenting part of the results and the related discussion thereof What to include in the Result Presentation? * Result that answer the research questions * Data that can be used to outline the important trends * Negative results * Results that are intended to be address in the discussion section * Results of
