Williamson
states that examining the 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.
