It should tie together the various points from the discussion section while still reflecting the original objectives, and provide answers to the research questions. The conclusion should also identify theoretical and policy implications and note any limitations of the study, while highlighting areas for future research.

as the main purpose of the study, the population or respondents, period of the study, method of research used, research instrument and sampling design. CHARACTERISTICS
2. Findings should be written in textual generalization,
that is, a summary of the important data consisting of text and numbers. CHARACTERISTICS
3. Only important findings should be included

However, the limitation should end on a positive note to show how they worked together to provide focus and strengthen the empirical results. IMPLICATION S
