dc.descriptionThis chapter outlines the structure and writing style of a research report, recommending the professional journal format for clarity and usability. It emphasizes data-driven reporting, starting from results to guide the narrative. The hourglass format—moving from broad to specific and back—is suggested, along with key principles like clarity, accuracy, and simplicity. Practical advice includes writing from an outline, using examples, and seeking feedback from non-expert readers.
dc.description.abstractYou have conducted a study and analyzed the data. Now it is time to tell the world what you have learned, to write the research report. Even if your report is not for a professional audience, we suggest that you adopt the format used for research articles in the professional journals. This for mat permits readers not only to read the report from beginning to end, as they would any coherent narrative, but also to scan it for a quick overview of the study or to locate specific information easily by turning directly to the relevant section. Despite the standardized format, your individual style will find ample opportunity for expression..
