4.5. Data Presentation The data will be presented in three parts according to the theories used so that the thesis will be organized while the writing style will be simple as possible so that any person can access it. For this matter, I will adopt the KISS (Keep It Short and Simple or Keep It Sure and Safe) and be KISSABLE (Keep it Informative, Stimulating, Satisfying, Accurate, Believable, Likeable and Enlightening) principle of the journalists.

Moreover, if a research participant does not want to proceed in the research,
