The ONLY part you have to do is the DISCUSSION part. I want you to read my full paper and write discussion based on that. I have attached both the istructions( on how to do Discussion) and my Full Literature Review. Please read my Literature Review beforw doing the discussion. 

ONLY Discussion part of Literature Review

12. Discussion section prompt Write a brief Discussion section (your instructor will give more detail, but likely at least 2-3 pages). Your Discussion should obey the guidelines described earlier in this lab manual, with the major exception that you don’t have results, so you cannot definitively interpret your results! Instead, you should explain your predicted results and interpret them, and then explain alternative results and interpret those. In each case, relate the results to the previous literature. As you do this, you will cite additional peer-reviewed scholarly publications that you did not already discuss in your Introduction (your instructor will tell you if there is a required minimum number). This is also an excellent place to cite and discuss previous theoretical review articles and explain how your (expected) results would be consistent with or reject existing theories. 

A brief set of requirements for the Discussion includes: 

1. Presents possible results and what each possible result means for the hypotheses from the Introduction. May give equal weight to all possible results, or primarily discuss expected result, but must have at least some significant discussion of unexpected possible outcomes. The ratio could be 50/50, 60/40, maybe even 70/30— NOT 99/1. 

2. Relates each set of possible results to other, published literature. 

3. Discusses practical/theoretical implications.

 4. Discusses limitations. 

5. Discusses future directions.

Conclusion

1. Expected Results

• Restate the purpose & hypothesis of the study
• Be more specific about your expected results than you were in the hypothesis you made in the introduction
• Discuss the hypothesis/hypotheses in the same order used in the introduction
• Since you are discussing all your hypotheses, you should discuss all your possible outcomes (e.g., “art therapy resulted in reduced symptoms,” AND “art therapy had no effect,” AND “art therapy increased symptoms”), though you can give more space/discussion to your most likely expected outcome (e.g., “art therapy resulted in reduced symptoms”)

2. Previous research

1. Connect your “expected results” to previous research – 
2. Why were these results expected (or not)? 
3. How do they change the interpretation of previous research?

1. investigated if your hypothesis is supported?
2. How does this study influence the topic if your hypothesis is rejected?
3. How does this study benefit science? Society?
4. Application
   1. How can the findings from this study be practically applied? 

Implications & Application

• Since you will not be able to conduct an actual study you will have to discuss the hypothetical impact of your results
  • If the hypothesis is supported:
    • What is the impact on science?  
    • Application: What is the clinical significance (impact on the treatment of diseases/disorders)?  
    • If the study was done on animals, how are the results relevant for humans?
  • If the hypothesis is NOT supported: (same)

• Discuss BOTH scenarios: your hypothesis/hypotheses IS/ARE or IS/ARE NOT supported.
• Future Research
  • If your hypothesis was supported…
    • What direction should researchers take this topic next? 
    • What questions may your study be unable to answer? 
    • What variables, or what additional populations, could be studied next time?
  • If your hypothesis was rejected…

8. Conclusion (“mini-discussion”)
   1. Summarize the objectives, hypothesis, results, implications, limitations, & future directions
