1. Descriptive Research
Descriptive research is all about describing people who take part in the study. It is designed to
depict the participants in an accurate way.
There are three (3) ways a researcher can go about doing a descriptive research project. These
are:
• Observational – defined as a method of viewing and recording the participants
• Case study – defined as an in-depth study of an individual or group of individuals
• Survey – defined as a brief interview or discussion with an individual about a specific topic
2. Correlational Research
It is a procedure in which subjects score in two (2) variables which are simply measured
without manipulation of any variables to determine whether there is a relationship between
them.
3. Causal-Comparative/Quasi-Experimental Research
It is also known as “ex-post facto” research (Latin for “after the fact”). In this type of research,
investigators attempt to determine the cause or consequences of differences that already exist
between or among groups of individuals
4. Experimental Research
It is a systematic and scientific approach to research in which the researcher manipulates one
(1) or more variables and controls and measures any change in other variables.
