SUMMARY

1. There should be a brief

statement about the main
purpose of the study, the
population or respondents, the
period of the study and method
of research used.
2. The findings may be lumped
together but clarity demands that
each specific question under the
statement of the problem must be
written first followed by the findings
that would answer.
3. The findings should be textual
generalizations, that is, summary
of the important data consisting of
text and numbers. Every statement
of fact should consists of words,
numbers or statistical measures.
CONCLUSIONS

1. Conclusions are inferences,

deductions, abstractions,
implications, interpretations,
general statements, and/or
generalizations based upon the
findings.
2. Conclusions should appropriately
answer the specific questions
raised at the beginning of the
investigation in the order they are
given under the statement of the
problem.
3. Conclusions should point out
what were factually learned
from the inquiry.
4. Conclusions should be
formulated concisely, that is,
short and brief, yet they convey
all necessary information
resulting from the inquiry.
SOME DANGERS TO AVOID FROM QUANTITATIVE DATA

1. Bias
2. Incorrect Generalization
3. Incorrect Deduction
4. Incorrect Comparison
5. Abuse of Correlation Data
6. Limited Information furnished by
any one ration
7. Misleading
RECOMMENDATIONS

1. It should flow logically from the

conclusions.
2. It must meet the purpose and the
scope as stated in the
introductions.
3. Must be practical and workable
4. Write it briefly. Any reason for the
recommendation should only be given if
necessary.
5. Must be clear on how the suggestion should
be implemented.
6. It must be precise (unless you have
insufficient research or analysis)
 SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Summary

This part summarizes the entire study. It is composed of an introductory

statement about the general problem/objective of the study, the specific
problems/objectives, and the methodology employed - all written in paragraph
form. This is immediately followed by the salient findings (numbered list). Take
note that the “findings of the study” is not a separate heading.

Numerical data are included in the “major” findings to be presented. However, no

new findings should be presented in this section that have-not been presented in
Chapter 3. The number of findings to be presented should be parallel to the
number of specific problems/objectives.
CONCLUSIONS

The Conclusion Section draws generalization for the population and

circumstances for which the evidences have been collected.

It is composed of an introductory statement followed by the conclusions in

relation to the findings re: the specific problems/objectives.

The number of conclusions is parallel to the number of specific findings

based on the specific problems/objectives. .These are presented in
numbered list form. The conclusions t should not repeat the same
words/statement used in the findings section

No numerical/statistical presentations are made in this section.

RECOMMENDATIONS

This section offers recommendations based on what the results mean in terms of
existing knowledge, drawing implications for the field or academic discipline
represented by the problem, or the need for further research and policy formulation.

The Recommendation Section is composed of an introductory statement followed by

the recommendations in numbered list form corresponding to the conclusions
presented. More recommendations may be added where necessary and applicable.

The recommendations should be stated in realistic and practicable (doable) terms
