Q

is a condensed form of the results/findings of a study being
undertaken by the researchers.

A

Summary

40
Q

It is related to the introduction and should answer the statement of the problem in
sequence. It is the part whether the study supports or refutes a hypothesis.

Recommendation

42
Q

Guidelines in Writing the Summary of Findings.

A
  1. There should be a brief statement about the main purpose of the study, the
    population and respondents, the period of study, method of research used,
    the research instrument, and sampling design. There should be no
    explanations made.
  2. The findings may be lumped up all together, but clarity demands that each
    specific question under the statement of the problem must be written first to
    be followed by the findings that would answer it.
  3. The findings should be textual generalizations that is summary of the
    important data consisting of text and numbers.
  4. Highlight only important findings in the summary, esp. which conclusions
    will be based.
  5. No new data should be introduced in the summary of findings.
43
Q

Guidelines in Writing Conclusions

A
  1. No conclusion should be made that are not based on the findings.
  2. Conclusion should appropriately answer the specific questions raised at the
    beginning of the investigation.
  3. Should point out factually learned from the inquiry.
  4. Should be concise, brief, short yet has the necessary information needed in
    the questions raised.
  5. Refers only to the population, area, or subject of the study.
  6. Should not be in repetition.
44
Q

Here are some suggestions on strategies for writing effective conclusion:

A
  1. Conclusion are intertwined with the introduction.
  2. Conclusions are inferences and generalizations based upon the
    findings.
  3. Conclusions should specifically answer the questions posed in the
    “Statement of the problem” of your study.
  4. Conclusions should contain facts or actual results from the inquiry or
    research study.
45
Q

Guidelines in Writing the Recommendations.

A
  1. Recommendation should aim to solve or help solve problems.
  2. Recommendations for things not discussed in the study is irrelevant.
  3. Should be feasible, practical, and attainable.
  4. Should be logical and valid.
  5. Recommendations should address to the persons, entities, agencies, or
    offices who or which are able to implement them.
  6. There should be recommendations for further research on the same topic in
    other places to verify, amplify, or negate the findings of the study.
