Study Notes
Research Resources and Time Scale
- Archival literature serves as a valuable resource for problem-solving in research.
- Research typically spans a time frame of months to years.
- General subject areas can emerge from personal experiences if not specified by an instructor.
- Research relies on journals, newspapers, and personal networking for information gathering.
Research Objectives and Techniques
- The primary goal of research is to achieve agreement or validation of the situation being studied.
- Regression analysis models the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent (explanatory) variables.
- A research paradigm consists of assumptions, concepts, values, and practices that shape a community's perception of reality.
Research Methodologies and Tests
- Requirements specification is the initial phase in the waterfall model.
- The T-test evaluates hypothesis testing where the test statistic follows a Student's t-distribution if the null hypothesis holds.
- ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) tests for statistically significant differences between multiple group means.
Key Concepts in Research Approaches
- Defining the problem is essential in research processes.
- The purpose of research extends beyond generating new knowledge; it can also involve improving existing understanding.
- Peer review is a critical step in ensuring research quality and reliability.
- Exploring ideas is significant in the implementation of research steps.
Research Framework and Definitions
- A general problem statement is essential, followed by specific questions or subproblems to guide the research focus.
- Presentation of the problem establishes the study's scope.
- Definitions should involve terms from the title and relevant variables; researchers can also develop their own definitions based on term characteristics.
- Rationale of the study reflects the justification for conducting the research.
False Statements to Consider
- The time scale of research is inaccurately stated as days to weeks; it's typically months to years.
- The goal of research includes addressing undesirable situations that require change.
- ACM does not refer to the "Association of Commitment Machineries"; it's commonly understood as the Association for Computing Machinery.
