Study Notes

Research Purposes and Types

Predictive (Prognostic) Research Purpose: Aims to forecast future outcomes based on existing data and trends, enabling better decision-making and planning.
Primary Focus of Directive Research: Concentrates on providing specific actions or recommendations to solve identified problems, often leading to direct interventions.

Illuminative Research

Distinction of Illuminative Research: Emphasizes understanding the meanings and experiences of individuals within a context, rather than numerical data or generalized conclusions.

Importance of Understanding Research Methods

Essentiality for Researchers: Knowledge of diverse research methods allows researchers to choose the most applicable approach for their study, ensuring valid and reliable results.

Research Process Steps

Next Step After Identifying a Research Problem: This typically involves conducting a literature review to assess existing information and refine the research question before developing a methodology.
