ABSTRACT
POSTER PAPER
I. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
A. This section corresponds to the data analysis and interpretation stages of the research process.
Functions:
Presents data in an organized manner.
Derives and discusses generalizations from the data.
Establishes highest and lowest data values (the data range) if there are any, as well as other values of special interest.
Links findings established by the research with one another as well as to previous findings.
Offers explanations for expected as well as for unexpected results.
Content:
Tabulated data in their final form, unless these are designated as appendices at the end of the paper.
Graphs and illustrations relevant to the discussions presented.
Discussions and explanations about the data to explain relationships among them and findings because of them (trends, patterns, quantitative and/or qualitative information, causes and effects, errors, etc.)
Treatment:
This may be presented as one section or divided into two, one for results and another for discussion.
Tables, graphs, charts, illustrations and sometimes photographs, as well as text in paragraph form are used to present the content of this section.
Statements should be supportive of each other.
In the sentences of the discussion, use phrases like “…may be due to…” and
“…seem to…” which hint of probability rather the definiteness.
Expository techniques should also be relied on.
