Within one method (e.g. the experimental method) you may have a number
of specific techniques or devices, that are used in the implementation of
such method. Examples: random selection of samples or experimental
groups; statistical significance tests such as chi square; specific statistical
analysis procedures or models such as linear regression; specific techniques
for dealing with special kinds of data, e.g. techniques for deciphering ancient
texts or for digging an archaeological site; and so on.
(2) Distinguish between research methods and research techniques .
Method and technique are two English words that have nearly same meaning
and also used almost interchangeably. You do not notice any difference if the
user mentions baking method or baking technique of a recipe or when you
read about management methods and management techniques. It seems
that we have accepted the two words as interchangeable and use them
according to our own personal choice or whim. But there are differences in
usage of these two terms that will be clear after reading this article.
There are a few of us who feel that the word technique is a loaded one and
must be used for gadgets and appliances that work on scientific principles
though to an extent this is correct as the word technique is etymologically
liked with the word technical and technology, the word has come to acquire
many meanings and is being used in even every day situations.

The methods depend on the fact that seismic waves have differing velocities
in different types of soil (or rock): in addition, the waves are refracted when
they cross the boundary between different types (or conditions) of soil or
rock. The methods enable the general soil types and the approximate depth
to strata boundaries, or to bedrock, to be determined.
