 TYPES OF RESEARCH QUESTIONS
FACTOR-ISOLATING
- “What is this?”
- isolate, categorize, describe, name
factors and situations
FACTOR-RELATING
- “What is happening here?”
- determine the relationship among
factors that have been identified
SITUATION-RELATING
- “What will happen if…”
- yield hypotheses testing or
experimental study designs
SITUATION-PRODUCING
- “How can I make this happen?”
- establish explicit goals for actions,
develop plans or prescriptions to achieve
goals, and specify the conditions under
which these goals will be accomplished
 SCOPE AND
DELIMITATION

that a researcher collection of characteristics
measures, controls, that can be defined by a
dictionary
and/or manipulates
CONSTRUCT INDICATORS
a new characteristic concepts or ideas the
that results from the researcher has gathered
conduct of research from reading various
literatures

DEFINITION OF TERMS
OF THE STUDY
PURPOSES OF REVIEWING A LITERATURE
1. To build the confidence of the researcher
2. To show similar studies conducted which become the
springboard of discussion
3. To see the objectivity of the study
4. To make the research study empirical
SELECTING THE TOPIC AND THE LITERATURE
1. Pick a topic.
2. Selecting the literature
3. Structure of literature review
4. Characteristics of a good literature review
 CHARACTERISTICS OF A GOOD LITERATURE REVIEW
 Delimits clearly the subject matter to be reviewed
 Covers all important relevant literature
 Is up-to-date
 Provides an insightful analysis of the ideas and conclusions in the
literature
 Points out similarities and differences, and strengths and
weaknesses in the literature
 Identifies gaps in the literature for future research
 Clarifies the context for which the literature is important
 TYPES OF READING
ELEMENTARY READING ANALYTICAL READING
- recognizing the words and literal - process of breaking the whole into
comprehension of the sentences parts for better understanding

SYSTEMATIC SKIMMING COMPARATIVE READING

- prerequisite to analytical reading - analyzes several articles or books
- discerning whether the articles or - concepts and principles from the various
materials can be included in the points of view of authors are compared
analysis or not and contrasted
CONDUCTING A REVIEW OF LITERATURE
1. Looking for relevant materials.
2. Actual reading
3. Note-taking
HIGHLIGHTING ANNOTATIONS
discovering the similarities
and contrasts of ideas and
remembering the location of
important key terms,
phrases, sentences, and
paragraphs
remarks, ideas, and
opinions the researcher
writes during the analysis
and synthesis of related
materials or sources
 ETHICAL

 ON AUTHORSHIP
COERCION
- uses intimidation to gain authorship GHOST
- papers written by people who are not
HONORARY included as authors or are not
acknowledged
- also called a guest or gift authorship

DENIAL
- to gain favor and/or to give the paper
a greater sense of legitimacy
- published work without acknowledging
MUTUAL SUPPORT or bestowing authorship on people who
- two or more investigators include made substantial contributions to the work
their names as co-authors of each
other’s paper
- focuses on published literature on a given
topic
- presents, analyzes, patterns, and critiques
