Carefully study the purpose (484) and major sections of the written research report on pages 484-496 of your text. Explain the importance of each section of the written report. Do you think one section is more important than another? Why or why not? must have 300-400 words.

example of another student post

For this weeks discussion I researched the main sections of a written research report. There are seven main sections and some of these sections have subsections. The main sections of a written research report in order are the title, abstract, introduction, methodology, results, discussion, and the reference section. Each section is of crucial importance simply due to the fact that without them fitting together in the proper order the reader would be completely lost. The main reasons for writing a research report is so you can communicate your results and findings, and so your experiment can be repeated and evaluated by other researchers, and this is the reason you must make sure to explain everything very thoroughly because if you leave a single detail out another researcher may fail to attain the same results and if that were to happen they could say your entire experiment was conducted wrong or you lied about your true results(Myers & Hansen, 2012).

     The title must be written in a way that it completely explains what you are researching but at the same time must be under twelve words. The title and abstract are the very first thing people will read when finding the your research report so they must fully explain your experiment but at the same time be some what short and to the point, and the abstract is written after the experiment is conducted so it should contain your results. The introduction explains the problem you are studying, why it is or should be important to the reader, prior research and literature that analyzed your topic, and towards the end you introduce your hypothesis. The methodology section explains the methods, procedures, conditions, participants, instruments, and must be written very precisely because this area fully explains the details of your experiment so basically if this area is copied step by step by another researcher they should come to the same conclusion. The results section includes the statistical findings from the experiment as well as any tables or figures the researcher decides to put in to better explain the results. The discussion section pretty much puts the experiment together by explaining everything in words rather than numbers and explaining if your hypothesis was correct or not. The reference section gives credit to every research article you read to discover your hypothesis and any source you used to help write your report(Myers & Hansen, 2012). In my opinion every section is very important if you were missing a section it would be like missing a piece to the puzzle.
