•Interpretation means: Searching for meaning and implication of research results, in order to make inferences and draw conclusions and relate to the theory. If a hypothesis is tested and upheld several times, it may be possible for the researcher to arrive at generalisation, i.e., to build a theory. As a matter of fact, the real value of research lies in its ability to arrive at certain generalisations. If the researcher had no hypothesis to start with, he might seek to explain his findings on the basis of some theory. It is known as interpretation. The process of interpretation may quite often trigger off new questions which in turn may lead to further researches.

Aspects of Interpretation :
•Establishment continuity in research through linking the results of a given study with those of another
•Establishments of explanatory concepts
