• The importance of the study and its objectives.

• Previous studies that benefit the subject of the study and assist the researcher in discussing its results. The researcher is committed to presenting previous studies according to the chronological order from the oldest to the most recent, or vice versa. Each of them is in one paragraph that clarifies its main objective, sample, tools and most important results.

• Clarify the study methodology that is appropriate to the nature of the research problem and includes quantitative or qualitative procedures and data that enabled the researcher to address the research problem.

• Determine the study population and its sample accurately.

• Determine the tools used in the study and clarify their psychometric characteristics.

• Explain the results of the study in a scientific way.

• Discussing the results is a scientific discussion based on the theoretical framework and previous studies, so as to reflect the researcher's interaction with the subject of the study through the conclusions and recommendations reached based on those results.
