SCOPE AND DELIMITATIO N OF RESEARCH  Why do you think that too broad topics will lead the research nowhere? 2 Scope and Delimitation › It defined the boundaries and parameters of the problem for investigation and narrowed down the scope of the investigation. › The scope of your study applies to what is in the domain and what isn't. You need to make it as clear as possible what you're going to study and what variables are within your study's approved range. 3 Scope and Delimitation › For example, if you're investigating the negative effects of bullying on schoolchildren, your research could include both face-to-face and cyberbullying in grades 6 through 8 (Prieto, Naval, & Carey (2017). 4 Scope and Delimitation Limitations and Delimitation › Limitations in qualitative research have drawbacks in terms of validity and reliability. Experts believe that it is exceedingly difficult to reproduce qualitative research since it takes place in a natural environment. 5 Scope and Delimitation Limitations and Delimitation › Delimitation, on the other hand, applies to the research study's limits, which are dictated by the researcher's decisions about what to exclude; for example, this study only included students in grades 6, 7, and 8 who had been bullied (Prieto, Naval, & Carey (2017). 6 Research (Prieto, Naval, & Carey (2017) 1. This study covers only those families in Barangay San Jose, Pasig City, benefited by the Government’s Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program. 2. This study includes only those English freshman classes that use both Blended Learning and standard ways of Language teaching. 3. This research investigation covers only Landbank-sponsored livelihood projects in 7 Example of Scope and Delimitation from Actual Qualitative Studies “Workplace Ergonomics: Perceptions on Employees’ Stress Levels and Safety” (Lao,2014) The focus of this study is on the workplace ergonomics in the corporate office setting. The study would focus on the relationship of workplace ergonomics and its effects on employees’ stress levels and safety. Moreover, the study would look into the current behavior and approach on workplace ergonomics that Philippine corporations employ in their work environment. This study on work place ergonomics does not encompass benefits received by employees outside of the said subject matter. In addition, this study does not aim to measure productivity 8 Example of Scope and Delimitation from Actual Qualitative Studies “Workplace Ergonomics: Perceptions on Employees’ Stress Levels and Safety” (Lao,2014) The participants of this study would be limited to large corporations whose employees engage in repetitive tasks. The companies involved in this study limit to multinational companies within the country. The data from the study would come from existing literatures, interviews, and surveys from company employees. Furthermore, the data results from this study would only be quantified from the instruments stipulated by the 9  CITE BENEFITS AND BENEFICIARI ES OF RESEARCH Benefits and Beneficiaries of Research › The word "benefits and beneficiaries of research" refers to how and how people will benefit from the study's results. It tells the reader how the research can lead to a person's well-being or the advancement of a community or society in general (Prieto, Naval, & Carey, 2017). 11 Aspects of Significance (Prieto, Naval, & Carey, 2017) 1. Significance for Theory The researcher discusses the research study's contribution to fundamental knowledge. If the analysis is a field in which the theory is well-developed, the study can be a major test or extension of the theory. 12 Aspects of Significance (Prieto, Naval, & Carey, 2017) 2. Significance for Policy and Practice By providing statistics that demonstrate how often the issue happens and how expensive it can be, the researcher emphasizes the importance of a study to enhance policies and practices. 13 Examples of Benefits and Beneficiaries from Actual Studies “The Surviving Cultural Heritage of the Kankeneys of Beguet: Basis of a Proposed Program for Cultural Preservation and Development” (Daaonis, 2002) The beneficiaries of the study were clearly the cultural minorities themselves, the Kankaneys, because the study was designed to identify their needs and concerns that pertinent remedies or programs can be done to improve on their situation. 14 Examples of Benefits and Beneficiaries from Actual Studies “The Surviving Cultural Heritage of the Kankeneys of Beguet: Basis of a Proposed Program for Cultural Preservation and Development” (Daaonis, 2002) The government (GO’s) and non-government organizations (NGO’s) were likewise benefited by the cultural minorities benefited by the study in the sense that its findings helped them identify the needs of the people and served as a basis for them to design an integrated, comprehensive and attainable program for the cultural preservation and development of the respondents 15 Examples of Benefits and Beneficiaries from Actual Studies “The Surviving Cultural Heritage of the Kankeneys of Beguet: Basis of a Proposed Program for Cultural Preservation and Development” (Daaonis, 2002) For the teachers, educators, curriculum planners, administrators and researchers, the findings of the study facilitated the formulation of the implementing guidelines in the teaching of culture in all school levels nationwide, to acquaint them of the different cultural aspirations of the different culture. 16  PRESENT WRITTEN STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM Statement of the Problem › Statement of the problem is broken down into as many subproblems or specific questions as are required. It is common to state the specific subproblems in interrogative form. Therefore, subproblems are considered as specific questions. Each specific question must be clear and unambiguous. It must have only one meaning. There must not be dual meanings of it. Specific questions must not be answered with a simple "yes" or "no" 18 How often and for how long do you visit the gym per week? 19 Example of Statement of the Problem “Narcissism in Teenagers: Root causes, Manifestations and Interventions” 20 -END-
