Findings of The Sample Research Study Discussion
Findings of The Sample Research Study Discussion
Discussion: Findings
Last week, you summarized the “How” of the research study (the methods). Now you engage with the real heart of the study: the findings. The findings answer the “What” question (What resulted from the study? What information was gathered?). If you are a fan of mystery novels or TV programs, you might think of the Findings section as the moment when the whodunit is solved. The Findings section reveals truth in much the same way by sharing potentially groundbreaking data.
