1. What is Research?

Research is a process of systematic inquiry that entails collection of data; documentation of

critical information; and analysis and interpretation of that data/information, in accordance with
suitable methodologies set by specific professional fields and academic disciplines.
2. What are the types of Research?
Theoretical Research
Theoretical research, also referred to as pure or basic research, focuses on generating
knowledge, regardless of its practical application. Here, data collection is used to generate new
general concepts for a better understanding of a particular field or to answer a theoretical
research question.
Applied Research
Here, the goal is to find strategies that can be used to address a specific research problem.
Applied research draws on theory to generate practical scientific knowledge, and its use is very
common in STEM fields such as engineering, computer science and medicine.
Exploratory Research
Exploratory research is used for the preliminary investigation of a subject that is not yet well
understood or sufficiently researched. It serves to establish a frame of reference and a
hypothesis from which an in-depth study can be developed that will enable conclusive results to
be generated.
Descriptive Research
The primary objective of descriptive research is to define the characteristics of a particular
phenomenon without necessarily investigating the causes that produce it.
Explanatory Research
Explanatory research is the most common type of research method and is responsible for
establishing cause-and-effect relationships that allow generalizations to be extended to similar
realities. It is closely related to descriptive research, although it provides additional information
about the observed object and its interactions with the environment.
Correlational Research
The purpose of this type of scientific research is to identify the relationship between two or more
variables. A correlational study aims to determine whether a variable changes, how much the
other elements of the observed system change.
Qualitative Research
Qualitative methods are often used in the social sciences to collect, compare and interpret
information, has a linguistic-semiotic basis and is used in techniques such as discourse
analysis, interviews, surveys, records and participant observations.
Quantitative Research
Quantitative research study delves into a phenomena through quantitative data collection and
using mathematical, statistical and computer-aided tools to measure them. This allows
generalized conclusions to be projected over time.
Experimental Research
It is about designing or replicating a phenomenon whose variables are manipulated under
strictly controlled conditions in order to identify or discover its effect on another independent
variable or object. The phenomenon to be studied is measured through study and control
groups, and according to the guidelines of the scientific method.
Non-Experimental Research
Also known as an observational study, it focuses on the analysis of a phenomenon in its natural
context. As such, the researcher does not intervene directly, but limits their involvement to
measuring the variables required for the study. Due to its observational nature, it is often used in
descriptive research.
Quasi-Experimental Research
It controls only some variables of the phenomenon under investigation and is therefore not
entirely experimental. In this case, the study and the focus group cannot be randomly selected,
but are chosen from existing groups or populations. This is to ensure the collected data is
relevant and that the knowledge, perspectives and opinions of the population can be
incorporated into the study.
Primary Research
This fundamental research type is defined by the fact that the data is collected directly from the
source, that is, it consists of primary, first-hand information.
Secondary research
Unlike primary research, secondary research is developed with information from secondary
sources, which are generally based on scientific literature and other documents compiled by
another researcher.
3. Cite at least 5 differences of Qualitative and Quantitative.

Qualitative Quantitative
Methods include focus groups, in-depth Surveys, structured interviews &
interviews, and reviews of documents for observations, and reviews of records or
types of themes documents for numeric information
Primarily inductive process used to formulate Primarily deductive process used to test pre-
theory or hypotheses specified concepts, constructs, and
hypotheses that make up a theory
No statistical tests Statistical tests are used for analysis
More in-depth information on a few cases Less in-depth but more breadth of information
across a large number of cases
Text-based Number-based
 4. What are the characteristics of Quantitative. Cite at least 5
 Large Sample Size.
 Structured Research Methods.
 Highly Reliable Outcome.
 Reusable Outcome.
 Close-ended questions.

5. Give at least 5 sample title of qualitative and Quantitative. Explain what made
them Quali. And Quanti.
Qualitative
This 5 is Qualitative research titles because it involves collecting and analyzing non-
numerical data (e.g., text, video, or audio) to understand concepts, opinions, or
experiences.

Pilgrimage Series
 Sustainable Tourism Development in Boracay Island, Malay, Aklan
Quantitative
This 5 is Qualitative research titles because it involves collecting and analyzing
numerical data collected through polls, questionnaires, and surveys, or by manipulating
pre-existing statistical data using computational techniques.
