outcome of research as follows:
The research outcome becomes the most
important of the data as it shows the effectiveness of the research
performance. Data that is collected from interviews are usually coded first to
enable some kind of categorization, which later gives researchers the ability
to analyze and present as the outcome. (2008, p. 205)
