WU Statistics Write up Worksheet

Question

A research report is based on practical research that is organized in a logical order. This is a brief Question of the research conducted. The report should be objective, treat data confidentially, use APA, show originality, provide findings, and attempt to solve problems and state implications. This process allows one to add to the body of literature on a specific topic. When you follow this formula of writing, you can have greater impact by disseminating your findings.

For example, imagine that you completed a study that explored mental health outcomes for survivors of sexual assault. Your results show that survivors suffer from depression, PTSD, anxiety, and hostility. Writing about the results would help professionals who read your report to further understand the needs of sexual assault survivors.

For this Discussion, you identify areas in a research report, identify a research article that is well written and includes all areas of a research report, and explain how being able to write a research report will help you contribute to social work knowledge.
