  2. A research report is one type that is often used in the sciences, engineering and psychology.
  3. Here your aim is to write clearly and concisely about your research topic so that the reader can easily understand the purpose and results of your research.

  1. Preliminaries
    • Title page
    • Terms of reference, including the scope of the report
    • Contents
    • List of Tables and diagrams
    • Acknowledgments, i.e. thanks to those who helped with the report
    • Summary, i.e. key points of the report
  2. Main part
    • Introduction
    • Methodology
    • Findings/results
    • Discussion       
    • Conclusions and recommendations
  3. Supplementaries
    • References/bibliography
    • Appendices
    • Glossary
   

Therefore, from the above explanation, Preliminary pages contain components like tables and figures.
