TYPES OF RESEARCH
LEARNING The learners

should be able to
describe the
different types of
scientific research

PENS GROCERY
RESEARCH
PURPOSE VARIABLES
SCOPE DATA
Research based on
01 Purpose
Basic Research
- It is used to
A. investigate the basic
reasons and
principles behind a
phenomenon or event
Basic Research
- AKA Theoretical research
A. - Driven by pure curiosity
- No immediate usefulness
to humans
Basic Research
A. - Boyle’s Law
- Newton’s Law
- Archimedes’ Law of
Buoyancy
Applied Research
- Aims to provide
B. solutions to problems of
the society by applying
basic research (theories
and principles)
Applied Research
- A problem is identified, and
B. a new method is applied to
solve it
- Produces useful knowledge
with practical use
Applied Research
- Improve agricultural crop
B. production
- Treat or cure a specific
disease
- Improve energy efficiency
Research based on
02 Scope
Historical Research
- Concerned with the
A. past and aims to
trace it to see the
present perspective
Historical Research
- Historical
A. - Legal
- documentary
Exploratory Research
- Relies less on theory
B. and more on the
collection of data to
explain a
phenomenon
Descriptive Research
- Concerned with the
C. present and aims to
determine the status
of the phenomena
under investigation
Explanatory Research
- Cause-and-effect
D. relationships that
allow generalizations
- Closely related to
descriptive research
Correlational Research
- To identify the
E. relationship between
two or more variables
- If one variable changes,
how much the other
elements change
Research based on
03 Data

QUANTITATIVE
RESEARCH
MIXED-METHOD
RESEARCH
1. Qualitative Research
- Does not require a sophisticated
statistical treatment because it
investigates on non-quantifiable
events
- Naturalistic inquiry to understand social
phenomena in the natural setting
(University of Utah College of Nursing, n.d., as cited in UTA Libraries n.d.)
04 Variables
Experimental Research
- Strictly adheres to the
A. scientific research
design
- Includes a hypothesis
and variables
Experimental Research
- To determine a
A. relationship between
the variables
(dependent and
independent)
Experimental Research
- Data collected must
A. be quantified or
measured and
carefully observed
qualitatively
Non-Experimental
Research
- More on observational
B. study
- Used in descriptive
research
Quasi-Experimental
Research
- Controls some of the
C. variables
- Samples are not
randomly selected to
ensure data is relevant
