Monisha conducted a narrative study that turned out exactly opposite of what she expected. She ends the report of her study with a brief summary of the findings and a more lengthy discussion of the importance of the research question, including a new literature review that might explain her unexpected findings. Which of the following pieces of advice is her advisor most likely to give her for revision?A. Sometimes research doesn't turn out as we expect, but those studies generally don't get published. So don't spend too much time on a revision of this paper.B. It was smart to do a new literature review-but it should replace the old one, so that the results do not appear to be unexpected; you should reorganize the paper with a new prediction.C. Instead of a new literature review at the end of the paper, include more information about the possible weaknesses of the method, analyses, and interpretations. That way the reader will have a better understanding of why the results are so unexpected.D. Don't lose sight of what you actually found-suggesting new research is great, but in this report focus first on interpreting the data you have and reflecting on any possible weaknesses in your design.

Monisha carries out a narrative study that shows clearly how she planned. She concludes her report with a brief description of its results and a broader reflection mostly on the importance of the research question besides a current literary review, which might directly illustrate her unexpected findings. It wouldn't lose sight of just what you find because new research is a positive thing.
