Step 7: Analyze the Data
All the time, effort, and resources dedicated to steps
1 through 7 of the research process culminate in this
final step. The researcher finally has data to analyze
so that the research question can be answered. In
the instrumentation plan, the researcher specified
how the data will be analyzed. The researcher now
analyzes the data according to the plan. The results
of this analysis are then reviewed and summarized in
a manner directly related to the research questions.
