This document provides guidance on writing the discussion section of a research article. The discussion section analyzes the meaning and importance of results, relating them to the literature review and research questions. It should include interpretation of results, implications, limitations, and recommendations. When interpreting results, the author should identify patterns in the data, compare findings to hypotheses and previous research, and explain unexpected results. The discussion should also discuss implications for theory and practice, acknowledge limitations, and make recommendations for further research based on results. The author is advised to summarize key findings, interpret results in light of other research without exaggerating claims, and avoid introducing new results or undermining their own research.
