No. The more detail the better to support the ideas presented.
Then it would have to be subjective
YES. Your feelings and opinions on the subject are irrelevant. Your job is to report on the research that has been done and the results of that research. Period.
Now, let me make on caveat. It is reasonable to express an opinion that, say, more research needs to be done to draw a definitive conclusion. A small sample in a survey or lab experiment, for example, may not lead to a conclusion that can be generalized. And if the research project has not or cannot be duplicated, it is valid for the report to conclude that additional research should be done. Criticism of the methodology used in the research is also valid, if such criticism can be supported. But, again, subjective opinions don't belong in a research paper.
