    Study Notes

    Types of Research Data

    • Research data is determined by the study's purpose, method, and data collection tools.
    • Primary data is unique to the researcher and accessible only after publication.
    • Qualitative data is often in the form of words, while quantitative data is in the form of numbers or counts.
    • Primary data collection methods include questionnaires, interviews, focus groups, observation, case studies, diaries, critical incidents, portfolios, physiologic instruments, and psychometric measurements.
    • Secondary data collection utilizes data collected for other purposes, such as patient medical records, surveys, business reports, and government databases.

    Ex Post Facto Research

    • Ex post facto research investigates relationships between variables that have already occurred without manipulation.
    • Descriptive studies aim to describe phenomena and their characteristics.
    • Case studies explore specific individuals or units in depth.

    Examples of Data Collection in Research

    • A field study exploring childhood obesity uses questionnaires, observations, and physiologic measurements to identify risk factors and develop a Child Wellness program.
    • The purpose of this study is to determine the risk factors for childhood obesity.
    • Secondary data collection techniques for this study include reviewing dietary records.
    • Focused group interviews with parents on their children's health can provide primary data with a cross-sectional perspective, meaning that the data is gathered at a single point in time.
    • Physiologic measurements of children are considered prospective data, meaning the data is collected over time into the future.

    Data Sources for Research

    • Data from the civil registry is secondary data.
    • Examples of secondary data include nurses' endorsement logbooks.
    • Primary research using multiple tools can inform follow-up studies with the same tools or different tools.
    • A descriptive study on the level of knowledge about Dengue Fever can be conducted using checklists, questionnaires, and interview schedules.
