THE RESEARCH PROCESS

Conceptual Stage

Designing and Planning Stage

EmpiricalOral Defense

Phase

Dissemination Phase

refers to the series of steps which make up research

from the development of an idea to the completed research paper

is a multiple-step process where the steps are interlinked with the other steps in the process.

THE RESEARCH PROCESS

there is no known solution to the problem

the solution can be answered by using statistical methods and techniques

there are probable solutions but they are not yet tested

the occurrence of the phenomena requires scientific investigation to arrive at precise solutions

A researcher knows that a problem is really researchable when:

Good research questions posses four essential

characteristics.

1. The question is feasible. (it can be investigated without an undue amount of time, energy, or money)

2. The question is clear.

3. The question is significant. (worth investigating)

4. The question is ethical. (no harm to human beings)

Characteristics of Good Research Questions

S – specific

M – measurable

A – achievable

R – realistic

T – time-bound

A Good Research Problem should be SMART:

1. The research problem or topic must be chosen by

the researcher himself/ herself.

2. It must be with the interest, specialization and competence of the researcher.

3. It must be within the ability of the researcher to finance, otherwise he/she must able to find funding for his research.

4. It can be completed with a reasonable period of time.

5. It is researchable and manageable.

Guidelines in the Selection of a Research Problem or Topic

6. It is significant, important and relevant to the present time and situation.

7. The results are practical and implementable and requires original, critical, and reflective thinking.

8. It can be delimited to suit the resources of the researcher.

9. It must contribute to human knowledge.

10. It must show or pave the way for the solution of the problems.

11. It must not undermine the moral and spiritual values.

12. There must be a return of some kind to the researcher.

13. There must be consideration of the hazards involved.

In formulating the problem statement, the following criteria

should be considered:

1. The research problem/ objective is written in question (problem) or declarative/ infinitive form (objective).

Example: 1. What is the profile of the respondents in terms of:

1.1 age;

1.2 sex;

1.3 religion; and

1.4 number of siblings?

2. to determine the profile of the respondents in terms of age, gender, religion, and highest educational attainment.

Formulation of the Research Problem/ Objective

2. The research problem identifies a specific area.

Example: Academic Performance of Male Senior High School in St. Mary’s College

3. The topic is phrased in workable and manageable terms.

4. The scope is limited to realistic parameters that are not narrow nor too broad.

5. The words used are unbiased, objective and not emotion-laden.

6. The relationships between variables to be studied are clearly cited.

Example: Emotional Quotient and Performance of Senior High School Students in Santol National High School

7. The phrases and words are measurable and can be

empirically proven.

Example: What is the level of self-esteem of the Senior High School Students in Sambag National High School?

8. The research problem identifies the data and techniques needed to answer the questions.

9. The research problem is stated in grammatical terms.

Guidelines in writing the title. The researchers

should be guided by the following in the formulation of his title. These are also the characteristics of the title.

1. Generally, the title is formulated before the start of the research work. It may be revised and refined later if there is a need.

2. The title must contain the subject matter of the study, the locale of the study, the population involved, and the period when the data were gathered or will be gathered.

The Title

3. It must be broad enough to include all aspects of the subject matter studies or to be studied. Hence, the title indicates what is expected to be found inside the research report.

4. It must be a brief and concise as possible.

5. Avoid using the terms “An Analysis of”, “A Study of”, “An Investigation of”, and the like. All these things are understood to have been done or to be done when research is conducted.

If the title contains more that one line, it must be written like an inverted pyramid, all words in capital letters.

refers to the overall strategy that you choose to integrate

the different components of the study in a coherent and logical way, thereby, ensuring you will effectively address the research problem; it constitutes the blueprint for the collection, measurement, and analysis of data.

defines the study type, research questions, hypotheses, variables, and data collection methods. Some examples of research designs include descriptive, correlational, and experimental. Another distinction can be made between quantitative and qualitative methods.
