 Types of Research Gaps

Miles (2017) proposed a taxonomy of research gaps, built on the two previous models. It consist of
seven core research gaps:

(a) Evidence Gap;

(b) Knowledge Gap;

(c) Practical-Knowledge Conflict Gap;

(d) Methodological Gap;

(e) Empirical Gap; and

(f) Theoretical Gap;

(g) Population Gap.
