    Study Notes

    Research Report Structure

    • The Results section should focus on presenting the findings of the study, without interpreting or discussing them.

    Descriptive Statistics

    • The Descriptive statistics subsection should consider statistical measures such as mean, median, mode, range, and standard deviation.

    Discussion Section

    • The Discussion section should interpret the results, relate them to the literature, and explain their significance.

    Limitations Subsection

    • Researchers should address the limitations of their study, including potential sources of error, biases, and areas for future improvement.

    Implications Subsection

    • The Implications subsection should focus on the practical applications and implications of the findings.

    Conclusion and Synthesis

    • The Conclusion and Synthesis section should summarize the main findings, reiterate the research question, and provide a final thought or recommendation.

    Summary Section

    • The purpose of the Summary section is to provide a concise overview of the entire study, including the research question, methodology, main findings, and implications.

    Statistical Analysis

    • The null hypothesis signifies that there is no significant difference or relationship between variables.

    Linear Regression

    • Linear regression predicts continuous or quantitative data.

    Chi-Square Test

    • The purpose of the Chi-Square Test is to determine whether there is a significant association between two categorical variables.

    Inferential Statistics

    • The main purpose of the Inferential Statistics section is to make inferences about a population based on a sample of data.

    One-Way ANOVA

    • One-Way ANOVA compares the means of three or more groups to determine if there are significant differences between them.

    Balance Principle

    • The Balance principle in reporting ensures that the presentation of results is balanced, unbiased, and free from selective reporting.

    Hypothesis Testing

    • The significance level is commonly set at 0.05, which means that there is a 5% probability of rejecting a true null hypothesis.
