Study Notes
Types of Qualitative Research
- Applied Research: Focuses on finding practical solutions for existing problems, aiming to solve a specific issue.
- Examples:
- Studying bullying in senior high schools to develop an intervention program.
- Investigating ways to improve illiteracy in teenagers.
- Researching marketing strategies for millennials.
Basic Research
- Basic Research: Designed to answer a scientific question out of curiosity or interest, focused on improving understanding of a phenomenon.
- Does not necessarily produce results of practical value.
- Examples:
- Investigating how alcohol consumption impacts the brain.
- Discovering the components of human DNA.
- Studying the relationship between stress levels and aggression.
Correlational Research
- Correlational Research: Establishes a relation or association between two or more variables through experimental manipulation.
- Involves a systematic investigation of relationships among variables.
- Examples:
- Analyzing the effectiveness of modular instruction on students' academic performance.
- Investigating the correlation between income and spending habits.
- Studying the relationship between vegetarianism and a healthy body.
Descriptive Research
- Descriptive Research: Provides an accurate portrayal of a particular situation or group.
- Also known as statistical research, involves describing what exists, determining frequency, and categorizing information.
- Examples:
- Investigating the extent of therapeutic intervention among COVID-19 patients.
- Determining the percentage of Head Start teachers with a bachelor's degree or higher.
- Studying the average reading ability of 5-year-olds when entering kindergarten.
Ethnographic Research
- Ethnographic Research: Involves an in-depth study of a culture through the systematic collection, description, and analysis of data.
- Aims to develop theories of cultural behavior.
- Examples:
- Investigating cultural awareness and integration of peace education in indigenous peoples' communities.
- Studying folklores and cultural presentations of Maguindanaon.
- Analyzing traditional marry-making practices of indigenous peoples.
Experimental Research
- Experimental Research: Involves the manipulation of one or more variables to predict and control phenomena.
- Examines probability and causality among selected variables, establishing a cause-effect relationship.
- Examples:
- Conducting an experimental study on the effects of vaccines on COVID patients.
- Investigating the effects of an independent variable on a dependent variable using a pre-experimental research design.
Pre-Experimental Research
- Pre-Experimental Research: Involves observing a group or multiple groups to see the effect of an independent variable on a dependent variable.
- Examples:
- Conducting a one-shot case study research design to examine the effect of a treatment on a dependent variable.
