Abstract

This chapter covers the mechanics of the discussion section of a scholarly manuscript. The discussion section is intended to tie together the study and leave a meaningful, perhaps inspiring, impression on the reader. In this chapter, we review writing style, structure, common components, and common errors found in discussion sections. A variety of examples and tips are provided to aid the construction of a factual and impactful discussion section.
