Answer to Question 1

ANS: D, E
An abstract is usually about 200 to 300 words and describes the problem, purpose, framework, methods, sample size, key results, and conclusions. In describing the problem and purpose, it strongly implies the gap. The introduction of a research report discusses the background and significance of the problem, identifies the problem statement and purpose, reviews the relevant empirical and theoretical literature, describes the study framework, and identifies the research purpose. The summary of the literature review clearly identifies what is known, what is not known or the gap in knowledge, and the contribution of this study to the current knowledge base. The methods section of a research report describes how the study was conducted.
