This is the section where you display the ‘findings’ of your project. How you do this may well depend on whether you have used quantitative or qualitative techniques. A quantitative project might begin with general results such as demographics, number of participants etc. before covering specific results. You would generally just display findings here, with the interpretation in a separate discussion section. You may want to display your analysed results in the form of a table, chart, graph etc. These all need to be titled and numbered and referred to in the text. You will also need to explain what statistical tests (if any) that you have used and what the level of significance is.
If you have undertaken qualitative research, this section will tend to be ‘textual’ and you will need to provide examples from the narratives to demonstrate your themes or ideas. Qualitative projects often discuss the findings in relation to previous work in the same chapter/s, rather than in a separate discussion section.
Depending on the type of project, this section may interpret and debate the findings from the results section. You may want to include some ‘reflexive’ thoughts.
You may decide to have one/two/three analysis chapters, or one results and one discussion chapter, but this will depend on the type of dissertation you are doing.
