Tips for writing results in a report

• Failure to provide results for all areas of your investigation may lead your reader to assume your report is incomplete.
• If data are numerous and complex, but important to your conclusions, consider placing much of the detail in appendices rather than creating an oversize results section.
• In the main results section, present numerical totals and/or accounts of salient anecdotes in a sequence that helps construct an unambiguous argument.
• Whenever possible, results should be presented in related categories that allow easy contrast or comparison.
