This document outlines different types of research according to several classifications:
1. According to purpose - predictive/prognostic research determines future variables, directive research determines what should be done, and illuminative research examines variable interactions.
2. According to goal - basic research develops theories while applied research applies basic research results.
3. According to levels of investigation - exploratory research studies variables, descriptive research examines variable relationships, and experimental research analyzes variable effects.

purpose of determining the future operation of the variables under investigation with the aim of controlling or redirecting such for the better. Directive - This research determines what should be done based on the findings. Illuminative - This research is concerned with the interaction of the components of the variable being investigated. According to goal
Basic or pure - This research is conducted for the
development of theories or principles. Applied - This research is the application of the results of pure of basic research. According to levels of investigation
Exploratory - In this research, the researcher
studies the variables pertinent to a specific situation. Descriptive - In this research, the researcher studies the relationship of the variables. Experimental - In this research, the researcher studies the effects of the variables on each other. According to type of analysis
Analytic - In this research, the researcher
attempts to identify and isolate the components of the research situation. Holistic - In this research, the researcher begins with the total situation, focusing attention on the system first, and then on its internal relationships. According to scope
Action - This research is conducted on a very
limited scope to solve a particular problem. It is almost problem-solving. According to choice of answers to problems
Evaluative - In this research, all possible courses
of action are specified and identified and the researcher tries to find the most advantageous. Developmental - In this research, the focus is finding or developing a more suitable instrument or process than has been available. According to statistical content
Quantitative - This research is one in which
inferential statistics are utilized to determine the results of the study. Non-quantitative - This is research in which the use of quantity or statistics is practically nil. According to time element
Historical describes what was.
Descriptive describes what is. Experimental describes what will be. Thank you!
