Drawing Conclusions

Conclusions is the first section of your Chapter 5. This section as described by Prieto et al. (2017), is commonly composed of the inclusive summary of findings of the research study. In this section, you can find facts that were learned from the inquiry. Conclusion serves an important part in making a research paper as it is the chance of the researcher to leave a lasting impression.

What’sIn? Concluding qualitative research needs the researcher to recall more thoroughly the problem statement, objectives, and results and findings of your analysis and how they connect and organize together. The aim is to integrate them to come up a comprehensive, logical, and smart answer or explanation to the research question. Research conclusion has its important roles and purpose in a research study. These are commonly elaborated as the following: a) it stresses out the importance of the thesis statement, b) it gives the written work a sense of completeness, c) it leaves a final impression to the readers and d) it demonstrates good organization. Conclusions are inferences, deductions, abstractions, implications, interpretations, general statements and/or generalizations based upon the finding. It should appropriately answer the specific questions raised at the beginning of the investigation in the order that they are given under the statement of the problem. When making the conclusion in qualitative research, it should be drawn from the patterns and themes. Patterns and themes that were extracted from the real-life experiences. In vanManen’s point of view, conclusions can be best illustrated in literary works as poem, quote, and/ or songs as it conveys emotions like making metaphors. Through metaphor like results can go beyond a descriptive synthesis of data. Strategies or tips to writing conclusions: 1. Write in a manner that is comfortable to you and edit while writing. 2. Write to be understood. Do not write to impress or to sound smart. Avoid highfalutin words to replace the common but clearer ones. 3. Write from an objective distance. Remember that you are writing a formal academic paper. 4. Write in a fresh new style. In concluding your qualitative research, you are supposed to present a new knowledge after all. 5. Conclusions should be formulated concisely, that is, brief and short, yet they convey a meaningful and logical arguments. It is important that conclusions have a conceptual significance and can imply, indicate, or chart future research directions.

Making Recommendations Based on Conclusions

A recommendation in research proposes a solution to a problem or evaluates possible solutions and recommends one. Before crafting a recommendation, the investigator must look CHRISTY CASERES GABULE, Doctor of Science in Nursing

What’sIn? After crafting your research conclusion, the next step for you to take is to write your research recommendations. Recommendations will be the last part of your Chapter 5. Recommendation is commonly known as the section where you can give suggestions on the matters relative to your research that must be improved. When writing you must take the following considerations: • Recommendations must be brief. When writing your recommendations, take note to write it concisely and as brief as possible. • Recommendations should be clear. You must state the specific suggestions that you want to imply in you study. • Recommendations must be precise. When giving suggestions, you should avoid vague recommendations to secure sufficient results.

New? As recommendations should be crafted briefly, clearly and precisely, here are some guidelines by Prieto et al. (2017) that you can use. • You must avoid writing broad and generic recommendations. Also, avoid recommendations that are directly related to the topic of the research. • Remember that recommendations are one step further than the conclusion. • You must take into consideration that recommendations must be specified according to the areas of concern (i.e. academe, policymakers, etc.)

3 References list is part of the paper that provides information necessary to locate and retrieve the source of the material. The purpose of the reference list is to allow the sources to be found by the reader. It gives credit to authors of the publication being consulted and extracted from the ideas. All references cited in the text must appear in the reference list.Bibliography is another form of reference listing with different style as it lists all the sources used during research and background reading.

What’sIn? In previous lessons, you have learned the In-Text Citation. In-text citation refers to all of the citations that can be found in all of the chapters in your research paper. Proper citation of a source is important for you to avoid complications and problems on the authenticity of your data once your paper is already published. Citing of sources comes in two (2) manners, namely: a) in-text citation and b) referencing list.The commonly used information in this manner of citation are the following: • Author’s name • Date of the publication of the source • The page number where you found the information.

New? Referencing list refers to the bibliography and/or references of your research paper. This holds the summary of the information of all of your sources. Information needed in making the referencing list involves the following: • Author’s name • Date of the publication of the source. • The page number where you found the information. • Publisher • Place of Publishing • Volume • Edition • Other relevant information
