How to gather data to

collect Results of
Findings?
 PROCESS OF COLLECTING
DATA

1. Decide What Data You Want to Gather

We must choose the subjects the data will cover, the
sources we will use to gather it, and the quantity of
information that we would require. For instance, we
may choose to gather information on the categories
of products that an average e-commerce website
visitor between the ages of 30 and 45 most
frequently searches.
2. Establish a Deadline for Data Collection

The process of creating a strategy for data

collection can now begin. We should set a
deadline for our data collection at the outset of
our planning phase. In these situations, we will
have a schedule for when we will begin and
finish gathering data.
3.Select a Data Collection Technique
We will select the data collection technique
that will serve as the foundation of our data
gathering plan at this stage. We must take
into account the type of information that we
wish to gather, the time period during which
we will receive it, and the other factors we
decide on to choose the best gathering
strategy.
4. Gather information
Once our plan is complete, we can put our data
collection plan into action and begin gathering data.
In our DMP (Data Management Platform), we can
store and arrange our data. We need to be careful
to follow our plan and keep an eye on how it's doing.
Especially if we are collecting data regularly, setting
up a timetable for when we will be checking in on
how our data gathering is going may be helpful.
5. Examine the Information and Apply
Your Findings
.
It's time to examine our data and arrange
our findings after we have gathered all of
our information. The analysis stage is
essential because it transforms
unprocessed data into insightful
knowledge that can be applied to better
our findings.
 Results of Findings
• The Results of Findings describes
what the researcher(s) found when
they analyzed their data. The results
section should not attempt to interpret
or analyze the findings, only state the
facts.
 The Results of Findings section is where you
report the findings of your study based upon
the methodology or methodologies you applied
to gather information. It is one of the most
important parts of a research paper, in which
an author reports the findings of their study in
connection to their research question(s).
Steps for Composing the Results of
Findings:

Step 1: Consult the guidelines or instructions

that the target journal or publisher provides
authors and read research papers it has
published, especially those with similar topics,
methods, or results to your study.
How Is a Results/Findings Section
Structured?

When structuring the results

section, it is important that your
information is presented in a
logical order. There are three
basic parts to this section.
• First, begin with an introduction to connect the results with
the research question(s). This brings the readers' focus back
to the purpose of the study after reading the literature review
and methods sections of your paper.

• Second, present your findings in a structured way (such as

thematically or chronologically), bringing the readers' attention
to any important, interesting, or significant findings. Be sure to
include a combination of text and visuals.

• Third, the results section should include a closing paragraph

that clearly summarizes the key findings of the study. This
paves the way for the discussion section of the research
paper, wherein the results are interpreted and put in
conversation with existing literature.
What is the Purpose
of a Results Section?
 The results section summarizes and
presents the findings of the study to put them
in context with your research question(s).
The study's data should be presented in a
logical sequence without bias or
interpretation. Findings may be reported in
written text, tables, graphs, and other
illustrations.
