What is RESEARCH? • Describing a careful, systematic, patient study and
investigation in some field of knowledge, undertaken to establish facts or principles (Grinnell 1993).
• Research is a structured inquiry that utilizes acceptable scientific methodology to solve problems and creates new knowledge that is generally applicable (Grinnell 1993).
• Scientific methods consist of systematic observation, classification and interpretation of data (Lundberg 1942).
• Systematic investigation to find answers to a problem (Burns 1997).
• Scientific research is a systematic, controlled empirical and critical investigation of propositions about the presumed relationships about various phenomena (Kerlinger 1986).

Characteristics of a RESEARCH (cont.)
• Controlled – in exploring causality in relation to two variables, you
set up your study in a way that minimizes the effects of other factors affecting the relationship
• Rigorous – you must be meticulous in ensuring that the
procedures followed to find answers to questions are relevant, appropriate and justified.
• Systematic – the procedures adopted to undertake an investigation
follow a certain logical sequence.

Characteristics of a RESEARCH (cont.)
• Valid and verifiable – Whatever you conclude on the basis of your findings
is correct and can be verified by you and others.
• Empirical – Any conclusions drawn are based upon hard
evidence gathered from information collected from real-life experiences or observations
• Critical – The process of investigation must be foolproof and
free from any drawbacks.
– The process adopted and the procedures used must be able to withstand critical scrutiny.

Why RESEARCH?
15
• To find out what we don’t know.
• To confirm whether what we know is correct.
• To know more than what we already know.
• To affirm our conceptual belief.
• To satisfy our curiosity.

Application perspective
• Pure research – involves developing, testing theories and hypotheses that are
intellectually challenging to the researcher.
– may or may not have practical application at the present time or in the future.
– E.g. • developing a methodology to assess the validity of a procedure.
• developing an instrument to measure the stress level in people.
• finding the best way of measuring people’s attitudes.
• Applied research – the research process are applied to the collection of information
about various aspects of a situation, issue, problem or phenomenon so that the information gathered can be used in other ways.
– any conclusions drawn are based upon hard evidence gathered from information collected from real-life experiences or observations
– E.g. • policy formulation, administration and the enhancement of understanding of
a phenomenon.

Objective perspective
• Descriptive research – attempts to describe systematically a situation, problem,
phenomenon, service or program, or provides information.
– the main purpose of such studies is to describe what is prevalent with respect to the issue/problem under study.
• Correlational research – to discover or establish the existence of a relationship/
association/ interdependence between two or more aspects of a situation.
• Explanatory research – to clarify why and how there is a relationship between two
aspects of a situation or phenomenon.
• Exploratory research – explore an area where little is known or to investigate the
possibilities of undertaking a particular research study 18

Mode of enquiry perspective
• Structured approach – everything that forms the research process (objectives,
design, sample, and the questions that you plan to ask of respondents) is predetermined.
– more appropriate to determine the extent of a problem, issue or phenomenon.
– quantitative research
• Unstructured approach – allows flexibility in all these aspects of the research
process.
– predominantly used to explore its nature, variation/ diversity per se in a phenomenon, issue, problem or attitude towards an issue.
– qualitative research 19
