Study Notes
Scope and Delimitation of Research
- Defines boundaries and parameters of the research problem, focusing on specific variables.
- Clarifies what will and will not be studied to ensure a clear investigative scope.
- Example: Investigation of bullying (face-to-face and cyberbullying) among schoolchildren in grades 6-8.
- Limitations in qualitative research affect validity and reliability, making reproducibility challenging due to natural settings.
- Delimitation refers to the researcher's choices about what to exclude; for instance, only students in grades 6-8 who had experienced bullying were included.
Research Examples
- Focus on specific communities: e.g., families in Barangay San Jose benefiting from government programs.
- Concentration on teaching methods: English freshman classes utilizing Blended Learning in combination with traditional strategies.
- Investigate targeted livelihood projects: research limited to Landbank-sponsored initiatives.
