ABSTRACT
Researchers may begin the discussion by restating the themes and their relation to one another and relative strength, and then describe the theory that has emerged or is supported by the themes. The introduction and literature review began the project by framing the question, its meaning, and how it fits with prior published research. The details of the data itself have been presented in the Results section, with explanations as needed to understand it. While there are many ways in which a Discussion section may be organized, certain types of information are usually included. When the results have practical implications, these should be explicitly stated, and the researcher should indicate what actions a particular person, group, or organization should perform. The Discussion section is an appropriate place to describe limitations and to indicate how the limitations might affect interpretations of the results.
