Study Notes
Research Overview
- Research is a systematic, meticulous study aimed at establishing facts or principles in a specific field.
- Etymology: Derived from Old French “recerchier” meaning to examine closely, implying thorough investigation.
- Involves both reading and writing skills, merging ideas and theories from various experts in the field.
Purposes of Research
- Descriptive: Identifies characteristics and patterns to enhance understanding of phenomena.
- Exploratory: Investigates new areas to generate insights, hypotheses, and pave the way for deeper studies.
- Explanatory: Clarifies the causes behind occurrences, leading to better comprehension.
- Predictive and Control: Anticipates outcomes to aid strategy development in various sectors.
Importance of Research
- Advances progress in health care, technology, and social sciences.
- Ensures facts are validated, fostering trust in knowledge.
- Enhances planning and decision-making through insightful data.
- Addresses societal challenges, creating growth opportunities.
Comparative Analysis: Qualitative vs. Quantitative Research
-
Similarities:
- Both involve thorough inquiry to understand and address real-life issues.
- Initiate with problem identification and can reveal new questions.
- Utilize textual analysis and interpret data employing various methodologies.
-
Differences:
- Qualitative: Explores ideas, focuses on individual experiences, employs flexible data collection.
- Quantitative: Tests specific hypotheses, uses numerical measurements, follows structured data collection methods.
Characteristics of Qualitative Research
- Provides in-depth exploration of human experiences, emphasizing situational context.
- Interprets data using narratives and visuals to convey perspectives.
- Adapts data collection methods during the research process for diverse information.
- Offers flexibility in design, allowing for various approaches.
- Focuses on internal traits of subjects during data analysis.
Qualitative Research Designs
- Case Study: Long-term observation of a particular phenomenon or individual.
- Historical Analysis: Reflects on past events to derive conclusions and predict outcomes.
- Phenomenology: Captures individuals' perceptions and lived experiences to understand phenomena.
- Ethnography: Observes cultural practices and beliefs, attempting to minimize researcher bias.
- Content/Discourse Analysis: Evaluates communication modes by analyzing documents and interactions.
- Grounded Theory: Develops new theories based on empirical data collected during research.
Outcome of Research Approaches
- Qualitative Research promotes deep understanding with a focus on validity.
- Quantitative Research emphasizes replicability and consistency with statistical analysis.
