Study Notes
The Research Process
- Researchers conduct experiments, gather data, and measure situations and conditions to test hypotheses.
- They collect data through observation and measurement to validate their hypotheses.
Research Outcomes
- Researchers may contribute new knowledge to their field, which can occur at the master's or doctoral level.
- At the doctoral level, researchers must present new and original scientific results.
Academic Requirements
- University professors and institution instructors are often required to write research papers to evaluate their performance and considerations for promotions to higher academic ranks (e.g., associate professor, professor).
Types of Scientific Research
- Scientific research can be categorized into two main types based on their nature:
- Basic theoretical research: focuses on developing theories and understanding phenomena.
- Applied research: aims to solve practical problems and apply scientific knowledge to real-world issues.
