    Question: what do you consider the most important part of a scientific study?

        Hard to answer because they are not necessarily mutually exclusive....

        This is not a fair question! You can't judge one without the others.

        If you had to pick one thing tho - the key part of a study that you reckon defines it more than anything

        Results are important, obviously, as they influence the discussion and conclusion. However methods influence the results. The introduction may influence the methods (as in the original hypothesis/research question). So E, all of the above.

        Can I say bias. I don't mean that in a bad sense, as I think everybody has a bias

        Surely its the methods section because that informs everything else (although the introduction is often underrated, because understanding the research gap and the specific research question is very important context).

        Important in what way and to whom??? I feel like the "correct" answer is Methods but as a reader I really enjoy the discussion (what good is this study anyway) and intro (where does it fit in with previous research). Without context does the rest even matter?

        Results is the reason the study exists but it's meaningless without Methods.....pic.twitter.com/Fue9SEVHFY
