Results

The results section is where you describe the outcome of your experiment/study. Be careful to only describe the data, all interpretation of data should be in the discussion.

This section includes two mutually supportive elements:

1. Text

The text highlights the important trends shown in your data, including statistical results used to analyse your data (usually presented in brackets).

2. Tables and figures (ie, graphs or diagrams)

Use tables and figures to summarise your raw data. Each figure or table should be referred to in the accompanying text. Number your figures or tables consecutively in the order they appear in the text and place them as close to the text as is practical.

Raw data should be placed in an appendix section (if it is required).
