“Every research has certain limitations, and it’s completely normal, but you need to minimize
their range of scope in the process. Provide your acknowledgment of them in the conclusion.
Identify and understand potential shortcomings in your work”
The limitations of the study are those characteristics of design or methodology that
impacted or influenced the application or interpretation of the results of your
study. They are the constraints on generalizability and utility of findings that are the
result of the ways in which you chose to design the study and/or the method used to
establish internal and external validity

Why Knowing The Limitation of the Study is Important?
 Allows the reader to

 better understand the condition of the study and challenges that researcher
has encountered.
 Understand the better scope of the study and reason for unanswered questions
in their mind.
 Identifying and acknowledging your study limitation helps you provide clarity and
direction of your work – no need to be pointed out by your panelist.
 Knowing your Limitation is an opportunity to make a suggestion for further

research.

 Acknowledging the study’s limitation also provides you with an opportunity to

demonstrate to your panelist/professors that you have thought critically about the
research problem.
 It highlights the that the paper does not only provides “discovery” but also confront
assumption and acknowledge the “we don’t know”.
 Your limitation will provide impact to the overall evaluation – limitation requires a
critical, overall appraisal and interpretation.

Importance and Limitation of the
Description and Possible
Study Limitation
• Limitations are important to understand for placing research findings in context,

interpreting the validity of the scientific work, and ascribing a credibility level to the
conclusions of published research
Do not apologize for not addressing issues that you did

not promise to investigate in your paper.
Define all possible limitation of your paper. This goes beyond listing the magnitude
and direction of random and systematic errors and validity problems.

Study Limitation
Here are the examples of limitation you may need to describe and to discuss how they possibly
impacted your findings. [METHODOLOGICAL LIMITATION]
FORMULATION • You might have formulated research aims and objective too broadly.
OF RESEARCH • You must specify in which ways the formulation of research aims and objectives could e
AND OBJECTIVES narrowed so that the level of focus of the study could increased.
• Data collection method is mis aligned with what is needed. IMPLEMENTATION

extensive experience in primary data collection. COLLECTION

SAMPLE •
•
Sample size depends on the nature of the research problem.
Too small sample size is statistically not be able to identify the significant relationship within
SIZE data set.
• Larger sample size could have generated more accurate result.
• Sample size is relatively important.

Study Limitation
• Lack of data or of reliable data will likely require you to limit the scope of your analysis, the size
LACK OF of your sample, and it can be a significant obstacle in finding a tend and a meaningful
AVAILABLE and/or relationship.
RELAIBLE DATA • Offer reason why you believe data is missing or is unreliable, on the other hand, an opportunity
to describe that the study needs to have future research.
• Not enough prior study made.

• First time to initiate the study LACK OF PRIOR
• Offer reason why you believe data is missing or is unreliable, on the other hand, an opportunity to RESEARCH STUDIES
describe that the study needs to have future research.
• When the measure of collecting data did not suffice to provide answer a clarity of your
MEASURE USED study.
TO COLLECT THE • Sometime it is the case that, after completing your interpretation findings, you discover that the
DATA way you gathered data inhibited you ability to conduct thorough analysis of the result.
ex. You regret not including a specific question in a survey that could have helped address a
particular issue that emerged later in your study.

Study Limitation
SELF – REPORTED • Self-reported data is limited by the fact that us rarely independently verified.
DATA • Self reported data contain several potential sources of bias.
 SELECTIVE MEMORY- remembering or not remembering experiences or event that

occurred at some point in the past.
 TELESCOPIC – recalling events that occurred at on time as if they occurred at another
time.
 ATTRIBUTION – act of attributing positive events and outcomes to one’s agency but
attributing negative events and outcomes to external forces.
 EXAGGERATION – act of representing outcomes or embellishing events as more
significant than is actually suggested from other data.

Study Limitation
Here are the examples of limitation you may need to describe and to discuss how they possibly
impacted your findings. [LIMITATION OF THE RESEARCHER]
ACCESS • Study is dependent on other factors – People, organization, documents. For whatever reason,
you get denied for the reach.

Study Limitation
• Bias is when a person, place, or thing is viewed or shown in a consistently inaccurate way.
CULTURAL AND Note that if you detect bias in prior research, it must be acknowledged and you should
OTHER TYPE OF explain what measures were taken to avoid perpetuating bias.
BIAS
• if your research focuses on measuring the perceived value of after-school tutoring among
Mexican-American ESL [English as a Second Language] students, for example, and you are FLUENCY IN
not fluent in Spanish, you are limited in being able to read and interpret Spanish LANGUAGE
language research studies on the topic. This deficiency should be acknowledged.

How to structure your research limitation correctly.

There ate strict rules to structure this section of your academic paper where you need to justify
and explain its potential weaknesses.
• Announce to identify your research limitations and explain their importance.

• Reflect to provide the necessary depth, explain their nature and justify your study choices.
• Look forward to suggest how it’s possible to overcome them in the future.

Study
How to set your research limitations?

No one is perfect. It means that your work isn’t beyond possible flaws, but you need to use them as a great
opportunity to overcome new challenges and improve your knowledge. In a typical academic paper, research
limitations can relate to these points.

IMPLEMENTATION OF
METHOD
If you formulate goals and objectives too broadly, your work will have some shortcomings. In this case, specify
effective methods or ways to narrow down the formula of goals and aim to increase your level of study focus

Study

IMPLEMENTATION OF
METHOD
If you do not have experience in primary data collection, there is a risk that there will be
flaws in the implementation of your methods. It is necessary to accept this, and learn and
educate yourself to understand data collection methods.

Study

IMPLEMENTATION OF
METHOD
This depends on the nature of problem you choose. Sample size is of a greater importance in
quantitative studies as opposed to qualitative ones. If your sample size is too small, statistical tests
cannot identify significant relationships or connections within a given data set.

Study

Know that you cannot be perfect and there is no individual without flaws. You could use the limitations of research
as a great opportunity to take on a new challenge and improve the future of research. In a typical academic paper,
research limitations may relate to
IMPLEMENTATION OF
METHOD
Writing a literature review is an important step in any scientific study because it helps researchers determine the scope of current work in the
chosen field. It is a major foundation for any researcher who must use them to achieve a set of specific goals or objectives.
However, if you are focused on the most current and evolving research problem or a very narrow research problem, there may be very little prior
research on your topic. For example, if you chose to explore the role of Bitcoin as the currency of the future, you may not find tons of scientific
papers addressing the research problem as Bitcoins are only a new phenomenon .

IMPLEMENTATION OF
METHOD
It is important that you learn to identify research limitations examples at each step. Whatever field you choose,
feel free to add the shortcoming of your work. This is mainly because you do not have many years of experience
writing scientific papers or completing complex work. Therefore, the depth and scope of your discussions may
be compromised at different levels compared to academics with a lot of expertise. Include specific points from
limitations of research. Use them as suggestions for the future.

Study
REMEMBER!
• Information about the limitations of your study are generally placed either at the beginning
of the discussion section of your paper.
• Statement about a study's limitation should not be buried in the body of the discussion
section unless a limitation is specific to something covered.
• if your determine that your study is seriously flawed due to important limitation, consider
reframing it as a pilot study intended to lay the groundwork for a more complete study in
the future. Make sure to specifically explain the ways these flaws can be successfully
overcome in later study. (But this is not an excuse for not developing a thorough
research paper!)

Study
REMEMBER!
• Make sure that when you are discussing the limitations of your research, be sure to:
 Describe each limitation in detailed but concise terms.
 Explain why the limitation exist.
 Provide the reasons why each limitation could not be overcome using the method(s) chosen to
gather the data [cite to other studies that had similar problems when possible]
 Assess the impact of each limitation could not be overcome using the method chosen to gather
the data.
 Assess the impact of each limitation in relation to the overall findings and conclusion of your study.
 Describe how these limitation could point to the need for further research.
• Remember that the method you chose may be source of a significant limitation that
has emerged during your interpretation of the results.
