Study Notes
Research Design Considerations
- Research design selection crucial for answering questions
- Quantitative designs include experimental and non-experimental approaches
- Qualitative designs involve non-numerical data like text, video or audio, for in-depth understanding of concepts and opinions.
- Qualitative designs can use phenomenological (human experience), grounded theory (theory building), ethnographic (culture exploration), or historical methodologies (life histories).
- Researchers must select a suitable setting for data collection (research environment) and specify its relevance to the research project.
Population and Sampling
- Identifying the population being studied is essential
- Selecting a sampling strategy
- Conducting pilot studies for instrument reliability testing
- Data collection method selection
- Using statistical procedures for data analysis
Data Analysis and Interpretation
- Analyze collected data
- Interpret findings based on analysis
- Draw conclusions from the interpretation
- Determine recommendations arising from study findings
Ethical Considerations
- Ethical considerations in research design.
- Ensuring participant confidentiality
- Obtaining informed consent,
- Protecting vulnerable populations,
- Maintaining objectivity, and upholding research integrity throughout the process.
