Types of Research: Pure vs Applied and Descriptive vs Correlational

Quantitative Approach involves the generation of data in qualitative form.

Explanatory research aims at showcasing what we already have.

Qualitative Approach is concerned with subjective assessment of attitudes and behavior.

Exploratory research finds a solution for a problem that has been extensively studied.

Correlational research measures the relationship between multiple variables without influence from any extraneous variable.

Quantitative Approach is concerned with qualitative analysis in a formal and rigid fashion.

Empirical research is based on theoretical assumptions rather than direct experience and observation by the researcher.

Qualitative research focuses on quantifying data.

Rigorous research involves following procedures that are irrelevant and unjustified.

Explanatory research aims to explore a new field of study.

Reliable research ensures that the results can be depended on to be accurate.

Exploratory research is often used at the initial stages of a research project.

A good research study should not employ hypothesis testing as part of the process.

Correlational research focuses on establishing cause-and-effect relationships.

Qualitative research primarily focuses on numerical data.

Quantitative research emphasizes quality over quantity of data.

A good research study does not need to be systematic and methodical in its approach.
