According to Bernardo (2009)
 Publication makes your research findings public,
that is, opening to the examination and use by
other scholars and knowledge users.
 Research is a “social dimension”
▪ A group of people are taking turns in advancing ideas
▪ There are participants in the conversation with a
common goal; the goal changes as the conversation
progresses.
▪ Participants decide on norms and standards of the
conversation.

 push the conversation forward or towards

 always involve building on the previous

 The degree of importance of the contribution
depends on the degree to which the

Data Analysis

31. 

Start the results section by
informing readers the
hypothesis of the study and
what statistical analysis will be
presented in the section.
Report the data collected and
its statistical treatment through
tables and figures. The order of
the presentation of the results
should follow with the statement
of the problem.

32. 
Use Tables and figures to organize the
results:
 Report exact values and illustrate main
effects (for experiments)
 Always tell the reader what to look for in
the tables and figures
 Lead the readers specifically to the point
what to look at in the table
 Provide sufficient explanation to make
tables and figures readily intelligible

33. 

Tips in making interpretation on the
results:
1. Begin with the central findings, and
then move to more peripheral ones.
2. Remind the conceptual hypothesis or
question being asked
3. Tell the answer immediately and in
English
“As table 1 reveals, men do, in fact, cry
more profusely than women.”

34. 4. Then speak in numbers
“Thus, the men in all four conditions produced
an average of 1.4 cc more tears than the women,
F(1, 112) = 5.79, p<1.025”
 5. Elaborate or qualify the overall conclusion if
necessary
 “Only in the father-watching condition did the
men fail to produce more tears than the women,
but a specific test of this effect failed to reach
significance, t = 1.53, p<.12”



35. 6. End each section of results
with a summary of where
things stand
 “Thus, except for the fatherwatching condition, which will
be discussed below, the
hypothesis that men cry more
that women in response to
visually depicted grief appears
to receive strong support.”

36. 
Discussion
 Evaluate, interpret, examine the implications





and draw inferences from the results
Emphasize theoretical consequences
Open the discussion with a support or nonsupport of your alternative hypothesis.
Repost the similarities and differences
between your results and the work of others
should clarify and confirm your solutions
Negative results should be accepted as such
without an undue attempt to explain them
away
Identify the practical and theoretical
implications of your study

Things to be asked in the
discussion:
What have I contributed
here?
How has my study
helped to resolve the
original problem?
What conclusions and
theoretical implications
can I draw from my
study?

Provide recommendations to heighten the
internationalization of research in your
university
For every recommendation what indicator
needs to be observed?
