Study Notes

Research Study Objectives

  • Students will define terms related to research studies
  • Students will gather and synthesize information from diverse sources
  • Students will be familiarized with different citation styles and formats
  • Students will understand the characteristics and mechanisms of reviewing related literature
  • Students will learn to correctly cite sources used in research
  • Students will appreciate the importance of ethical standards in research source use

Research Overview

  • Research is systematic inquiry involving data collection, documentation of information, and analysis/interpretation via methodologies specific to disciplines
  • Primary sources detail research findings (e.g., journals)
  • Secondary sources summarize another author's work (e.g., textbooks, encyclopedias)
  • Proper citations prevent authenticity issues in published papers
  • Citations inform readers about borrowed information, clarifying its source and context
  • Citations take two forms: in-text citations and a reference list

In-Text Citations

  • In-text citations appear within research chapters
  • Include the author's name, publication date, and page number

Referencing Lists

  • Referencing lists are a complete record of all sources
  • Include author's name, date of publication, page number, publisher, publication location, volume, edition, and other relevant information

In-Text Citation Guidelines

  • Citations can be organized by author, topic, or chronologically
  • Author method: Separate discussion of each author's ideas
  • Topic method: Group works with identical points on a topic
  • Chronological method: Order sources by publication date

Synthesis of Information

  • Synthesis combines information from multiple sources
  • Explanatory synthesis: Presents information objectively
  • Argument synthesis: Presents a viewpoint or argument
  • RRLs typically have three sections: Introduction, Body, and Conclusion
  • Introduction summarizes the general research topic
  • Body presents gathered information logically; considers objectives and themes
  • Conclusion provides an overall summary of the topic's knowledge base; highlights research significance

Literature Review Guidelines

  • Define the topic and audience
  • Search and research reference materials
  • Create a conceptual diagram of different types of literature review
  • Take detailed notes while reading
  • Select a desired review type
  • Maintain a focused and broadly interesting review
  • Be critical and consistent
  • Employ a logical structure
  • Consult and incorporate feedback

Research Ethics

  • Research ethics establish acceptable conduct
  • Eight key principles guide ethical conduct:
    • Honesty (transparency, accurate citation of sources)
    • Objectivity (avoiding bias)
    • Integrity (sincerity, consistency)
    • Carefulness (avoiding negligence and errors)
    • Openness (accepting feedback, handling criticism constructably)
    • Respecting intellectual property (properly citing sources, acknowledging ownership)
    • Trustworthiness (protecting data integrity, maintaining confidentiality)
    • Social & legal responsibility (adhering to institutional policies and laws)
  • Scientific misconduct involves unethical research practices (e.g., fabrication, falsification, non-publication of data, faulty data gathering procedures, plagiarism)

Categories of Sources

  • Four main categories of information sources
    • Documents (written materials: books, articles, reports)
    • Numerical records (census data, reports, financial statements)
    • Oral statements (stories, legends, personal accounts)
    • Relics (physical objects, artifacts)

Techniques for Writing a Synthesis

  • Summary: The simplest approach; organizes information coherently based on source material
  • Illustration/example: Uses concrete examples related to a topic
  • Reasons: Thesis development with supporting reasons for the thesis
  • Comparison and Contrast: Examines similarities and differences between topics or data

Presenting a Written Literature Review

  • Must observe objectivity and respect for others' work
  • Features of a strong literature review include:
    • Focused; addressing the research topic directly
    • Concise; presenting essential information effectively
