ALL FROM FIGURE 4 FROM THE ARTICLE
ALSO I PROVIDED AN EXAMPLE PDF TO SO YOU UNDERSTAND MORE
Data Analysis
Analysis of what was actually done, synthesis of information
Understand the whole of the experiment and background
Understand the techniques and why those, what those techniques measure
Big picture of the results (filter out details, go for larger, more important trends)
Write a few words summarizing each paragraph or part of a picture (scratch before writing sentences)
Only make conclusions from what was measured
Some experiments are descriptive not experimental
Hypothesis:
Broad
No approach
The authors hypothesized…
Biological system, not the experiment
Always true of physiology (maybe include context or constraints)
Approach:
Past tense
Check out caption (reword it)
Do not just lift the science bits
Do not add own information (or at least say “I assume…”)
Include what was manipulated, if anything
Results:
Also past tense
Not so numbery, not lists (summarize trends in meaningful ways)
Mention comparisons with statistics and magnitudes and ranges
Conclusions:
Present tense
May limit scope (only in some context)
Not results although results supporting the conclusion could be included (explicitly say something “the result that X, supports the conclusion Y because…)
