Study Notes

Chapter One: The Research Process

  • Research involves a systematic examination to establish facts and principles.
  • It's composed of two parts: "re" (again) and "search" (examine).
  • Research must be controlled, rigorous, systematic, valid, verifiable, empirical, and critical.
  • Controlled research minimizes the effect of external factors.
  • Rigor implies meticulous procedures.
  • Systematic research follows a logical sequence.
  • Validity and verifiability mean conclusions are accurate and can be confirmed by others.
  • Empirical research is based on observable evidence.
  • Critical scrutiny ensures the process is thorough.

Types of Research

  • Pure research develops and tests theories, often without immediate practical applications.
  • Applied research addresses specific, practical, often policy-orientated questions. It can be descriptive, correlational or explanatory. This type of research is almost always done on the basis of pure research.
  • Descriptive research systematically details a situation, problem, phenomenon, etc.
  • Correlational research investigates the relationship between two or more aspects of a situation.
  • Explanatory research seeks to clarify why and how a relationship exists
  • Exploratory research investigates possibilities for future research studies.

Steps in Research Process

  • Formulating the Research Problem
  • Extensive Literature Review
  • Identifying Research Objectives
  • Preparing Research Design & Sample Design
  • Collecting the Data
  • Analyzing Data
  • Generalizing/Interpreting
  • Preparing the Report
