Reseach methodology

Research
●Research composed of 2 , re and search.
●Careful consideration of study regarding a
particular concern of a problem using
scientific method.
Methodology:

●The function of Methodology process is to

provide for the collection of relevant
evidence.
Research basically its a way to find
answer to the question and follow the
progress that progress is called
research.
The organized questioning and
exploration either by hypothesis
formation or scientific testing of any
inquisition or query by following a set of
standard rules and procedures is
defined as research methodology.
 Functions Of Research
Methodologies
Research methodologies perform a lot of
functions.
●
Research methodology identifies the
research activity in a true sense.
●
It further specifies and defines the actual
concepts.
●
It further declares what sort of methods
will be required for further inquiry.
●
Research methodology offers a platform
to demonstrate how we can
communicate research.
 Research classification
Research comes in many shapes and
sizes.There are of
dimensions
● classification are:
●
Purpose of doing research
●
Time dimension in search
●
Research techniques used in it
 Purpose of Research
Purpose of research may be organized
into three groups based on what the
researcher is trying to accomplish:
● Exploratory Research
● Descriptive Research
● Explanatory Research
 Exploratory Research
●
Exploring a new topic or issue in order
to learn about it.
●
May be its the first stage in sequence of
studies.
●
Formulation of more precise question
that future reasearch can answer.
 Descriptive Research
●
It the visual presentation of specific
details of a situation.
●
The major purpose of descriptive
reseach,is to describe characteristics f
Focus on who,what,when,where and
●
how but not why.
 Explanatory Research
●
It identify the reasons for something that
occurs.
● Tells us why things are the way they are.
●
The desire to know why to explain, is the
purpose of explanatory research.
●
Determine which of several explnations
is best
For Example:
A descriptive research may
discover that 10 percent of parents
absue their children, whereas the
explanatory researcher is more
interested in learning why
parents abuse their children.
 Types of Research
●
Basic Research
●
Analytical Research
●
Applied Research
●
Quantitative Research
●
Qualitative Research
●
Conceptual Research
●
Fundamental Research
● Empirical Research
 Basic Research:
●
To enhance knowledge
●
Fundamental aspect of research
●

Applied Research:
● Analyzing and showing real life problem
●
Solve practical problems
 Problem Oriented Research:
● Understand each nature of problem
● Find out relevant solution
Problem Solving Research:
● Conducted by companies
● Resolve their problem
 Qualitative Research:
●
Inquiry help in depth understanding of
problem
●
Non-statistical method
Quantitative Research:
●
Structured way
● Collecting data
● Analyzing to draw conclusion
 Characteristics of
Research
The few characteristics are as follow:
●
Rigorous
●
Systematic
●
Valid
●
Varifible
●
Empirical
● Critical
➢
that

➢
Rigorous:procedure should be
relevant,justified and appropriate.
➢
Systematic:it should follow a certain
legal procedure.
➢
Critical: information must be free from
drawbacks
➢
Empirical:it follow scientific methods
that based on real life experiences.
➢
Valid and verified: the data should
be correct and verified
 Purpose of Research
methodology
The purpose of reasearch is:
●
To discover answers to questions
through the application of scientic
procedures
●
To face challanges
● To solve problem
● To get intellectual joy
 Steps for planning
Research study
● Formulating a research problem
● Research design
●
Constructing instrument for data
collection
● Writing a Research Proposal
 Research question
contain
● Relevance
● Avoiding of duplication
● Feasibility
● Applicability
● Urgency of data needed
● Ethical acceptability
● Authority acceptability
