2. What is a research?
Sanchez (2002) defined research
as a discovery and exploration of

investigation of facts leading to the
discovery of new ideas and new
methods. The end result is the

Polit and Beck (2001) stated that
research is a systematic inquiry that
uses disciplined methods to answer
questions or solve problems. The
goals of research are to develop,

Johnston and Christensen
(2000) enumerated seven
major parts; these includes
the following:

beginning or more likely near the end with a
list of acronyms, jargon, credits, etc. This is
an important part of Research paper or
report is that in which the key or important
terms in the study are clearly defined.

30. 5. Data Analysis and Procedure
(Statistical techniques)
- Statistical data analysis is a procedure of
performing various statistical operations. It is a
kind of quantitative research, which seeks to
quantify the data, and typically, applies some
form of statistical analysis. Qualitative data
basically involves descriptive data, such as
survey data and observational data.
31. Chapter 4

This part includes the presentation and
the result of an investigation. From the
previous findings of the researches, the
analysis and interpretation must be
thoroughly discussed. Discussion must
be accompanied by graphs, tables, and
figures.
32. Chapter 4
Presentation, Analysis and Interpretation of Data
To facilitate correct interpretation of
data and discussion, research data
