The second chapter should not be confused with the Introduction in Chapter I. The introduction provides a review of the topic; the Literature Review summarizes what has been said about the topic. The Literature Review is not a series of book (or journal article) reports. A good literature review tells a story about the topic, using published works to support what is written. The chapter should be organized in such a way as to (a) bring together the most important writings about the research question in general, followed by (b) a closer examination of the writings related to the component parts detailed in the Purpose and Objectives subsection of Chapter I. It is very helpful to the reader if the ideas are presented in the same order throughout the thesis.
This chapter will contain the greatest number of citations, so it is important that they be done correctly. Each citation must have a corresponding listing in the Reference section.
The final paragraphs of the Literature Review should identify 3-4 studies in the Chapter II Literature Review that you believe were exceptionally good in that they strongly supported your research hypothesis(ses). These studies will be carried over to Chapter III as specific studies that support your hypothesis as identified in Chapter I. You should identify these as Studies 1, 2, and 3. These should be studies that have tables, graphs, and/or charts that the authors used to support their hypotheses which will be carried over into Chapter III and discussed in greater detail.
Chapter III: Findings and Results (4 pages)
This chapter includes a presentation and analysis of the data. You should carry over to Chapter III the 3-4 studies that you identified at the end of Chapter II. You will discuss these studies in greater detail, explaining the methodology the authors used in their study that supports your hypothesis(ses). Tables, charts, illustrations, graphs, etc. that these authors used in their studies should be cited and referenced in your Chapter III. At the end of Chapter III, you should summarize the findings of these 3-4 studies and explain how the findings of these studies support your hypothesis(ses) and your research questions.
Chapter IV: Discussion, Conclusions, and Recommendations (2 pages)
This chapter involves (a) a discussion of the research project, including the findings, interpretation of the results, and problems and/or limitations; (b) a conclusion: what did we find out? what did we learn? and (c) recommendations for changes in policy or practice, future research, or anything else that will direct solutions to the problem(s) that were the focus of the research.
