results

Effects of actions

Results are outcomes or consequences—what happens after an action, experiment, or process.

Search results show what you found; test results reveal what was measured.

In plural, results often implies success: a coach who gets results, I want to see results.

Results can also mean data from research or statistics: The results of the study were inconclusive.
