    Writing the Result Section of an IMRaD Paper

    • The result section presents observed data from a study.
    • It displays the raw findings, without analysis.
    • Qualitative studies report "findings," while quantitative studies report "results."
    • Data presentation formats include textual descriptions, tables, and graphs.
    • Tables should be self-explanatory and organized in a standardized way, enabling easy comprehension of relationships.
    • Tables are numbered sequentially using Arabic numerals.
    • The title of each table should be descriptive and written in bold capital letters.
    • A short introductory paragraph for the results section is useful, as it sets the stage for the subsequent content.
    • The introductory paragraph concisely explains what follows.
    • Use simple past tense in the verb descriptions.
    • The table body contains numeric or textual data, arranged from top to bottom or left to right.
    • Table notes, or descriptions clarify details of the table, concise and comprehensive.
    • Table titles are positioned centrally and are descriptive.
