Research
is thedesign
framework of
research methods and echniques
chosen by a researcher.

The design of a research topic

explains the type of research
(experimental, survey, correlational,
semi-experimental, review) and also
its sub-type (experimental design,
research problem, and descriptive
case-stu dy).
There are three main types of research

categories:
1. Descriptive research design:

In a descriptive design, a researcher

is solely interested in describing
the situation or case under their
research study.

2. Experimental research design:
Experimental research design
establishes a relationship between
the cause and effect of a situation.
In descriptive design, researchers focus
solely on describing the situation or
case being studied.

research is a non-experimental research

design technique that helps researchers
establish a relationship between two closely
connected variables.

Questionnaires
The questionnaire is a tool designed for
the collection of quantitative data, and is
widely used in construction research as it
is a good research instrument for
collecting standardized data and making
generalizations.
Interviews
Interviews require specialized skills from
the interviewer, who will need to negotiate
a good partnership with the respondent to
ensure a highly detailed and valid set of
qualitative data is collected and
transcribed effectively
Observation
Observation is a systematic data-collecting
technique that involves watching
individuals in their natural environment or
in a naturally occurring situation.
