Identify logical sequences of the following chapters in a research report ?

(i) Introduction
(ii) Findings and suggestions
(iii) Literature review
(iv) Data analysis and interpretation

  • A.(i) (iii) (ii) (iv)
  • B.(i) (ii) (iv) (iii)
  • C.(i) (iii) (iv) (ii)
  • D.(iv) (i) (ii) (iii)

Answer: C

The logical sequence of chapters is (i) (iii) (iv) (ii).

  1. Introduction: the problem, objectives and scope.
  2. Literature review: what earlier studies have found.
  3. Data analysis and interpretation: the results of the study.
  4. Findings and suggestions: the conclusions drawn and the recommendations.

Findings can only be stated after the data has been analysed, so any order putting (ii) before (iv) is wrong. The literature review belongs straight after the introduction, since it frames the study, and a report cannot begin with data analysis, which rules out the last option.
