Research MAP
1. Research Systematic process of investigating a problem, question, or hypothesis to gain knowledge or find solutions
Quantitative Research I. Descriptive Research II. Correlational Research III. Quasi-Experimental Research IV. Experimental Research V. Survey Research VI. Causal-Comparative Research VII. Longitudinal Research VIII. Cross-Sectional Research
Qualitative Research i- Ethnographic Research ii- Phenomenological Research iii- Grounded Theory iv- Case Study Research v- Narrative Research vi Action Research
2. Research Problem. The research problem is the central question or a study aims to address.
Steps
I. Identifying a Problem II. Clarifying the Problem III. Formulating Hypotheses IV. Developing a Methodology V. Reporting the Findings VI. Recommendation
3-Literature Review: is a comprehensive summary and analysis of existing research on a particular topic
4-Theoretical Framework: A theory-based structure guiding research
5-Conceptual Framework: A visual model showing variable relationships
6-Hypotheses are testable statements predicting the relationship between variables i-Null Hypothesis (H0) ii-Alternative Hypothesis (H1)
7- Research Questions: direct the focus and scope of a study
8. Research Design is the overall strategy used to conduct the research
i-Purpose ii-Philosophical Assumption iii-Research Approach iv-Methodological Choice v-Research Strategy vi-Sampling Method vii-Data Collection viii-Nature of Data Collected ix-Data Analysis Methods
9. Sampling Sampling involves selecting a subset of a population for study I.
10. Measurement and Scaling Techniques Methods to quantify data and measure variables I.
11. Data Collection Techniques used to gather information for analysis i-Primary Sources of Data These involve collecting first-hand information directly from the original source ii-Secondary Sources of Data These involve pre-existing data collected by others for different purposes
12. Analysis of Data Systematic examination of collected data to draw conclusions
13-Conclusion: A summary of key findings and insights from the research
