Multiple Choice

In the Discussion, you typically do what?

Relating findings to existing literature and your thesis is what the Discussion is for. This part interprets what the results mean in the bigger picture, showing how they support, refine, or challenge what others have found and how they connect to the main question or argument of your work. It’s the space to explain the significance, the practical or theoretical implications, and why the findings matter now. You also discuss limitations of the study and suggest directions for future research, helping readers understand the scope and possible next steps. The other tasks belong to other sections. Summarizing results without context reads more like a brief recap and fits a concluding takeaway in a broader sense. Presenting raw data tables belongs in the Results section where the data are shown transparently. Listing all figures isn’t the purpose of the Discussion, though you will refer to figures as you explain your interpretation.
