Questions and Answers

What is the characteristic of the inductive model?

Begins with a clearly defined research problem

Tests whether the expected pattern actually occurs

Develops general principles from specific observations (correct)

Moves from the general to the specific

What is the characteristic of the deductive model?

Moves from the general to the specific (correct)

Forms general principles from specific observations

Develops general principles from specific observations

Begins with a clearly defined research problem

What is the relationship between induction and deduction?

Induction forms general principles from specific observations; deduction tests whether the expected pattern actually occurs (correct)

Induction develops hypotheses from theories; deduction forms empirical generalizations

Induction begins with a clearly defined research problem; deduction develops general principles from specific observations

Induction moves from the general to the specific; deduction moves from the particular to the general

Study Notes

Inductive Model

Begins with specific observations and data to develop broader generalizations and theories
Often used in exploratory research where little is known about a topic
Involves moving from specific to general

Deductive Model

Starts with general principles or theories and applies them to specific situations to test their validity
Used in confirmatory research where hypotheses are tested against empirical data
Involves moving from general to specific

Relationship between Induction and Deduction

These models are complementary and often used together in a research process
Inductive reasoning can generate new hypotheses that can then be tested deductively

Stating Research Objectives Clearly

Research objectives should be clearly stated and unambiguous to guide the research process and ensure that findings are relevant
Objectives should be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART)

The Purpose of the Deductive Model

To test existing theories and hypotheses using empirical data
To confirm or refute prior knowledge
To provide evidence for a particular claim or theory
