AB  - The  culmination  of  the  research  process  is  the  communication  of  results.  This  final  stage  may  be  the  most  important  part  of  the  process  in  that  only  shared  information  can  clarify,  amplify  and  expand  the  professional  body  of  knowledge.  Research  reports  can  be  developed  in  a  variety  of  ways.  The  written  article  published  in  a  refereed  journal  provides  a  permanent  record  of  research  that  will  be  available  to  a  large  audience.  Oral  reports  and  poster  presentations  at  professional  meetings  serve  to  disseminate  research  information  in  a  timely  fashion,  although  the  audience  is  limited  and  the  record  of  research  findings  will  be  found  only  in  abstract  form.  Students  are  usually  required  to  document  their  work  in  the  form  of  a  thesis  or  dissertation,  but  may  be  given  the  option  of  writing  the  paper  in  the  form  of  a  journal  article.  The  purpose  of  this  chapter  is  to  describe  the  process  of  preparing  manuscripts  for  publication  in  scientific  journals,  poster  presentations  and  oral  reports.
