Introduction
The report is all about good research with including its definition, usefulness, nature, and
principles. Good research provides the best output from the researching process and it is
useful to increase the knowledge of the human body. From this, anybody can understand
what research is and why it is useful. The nature of research is also discussed under good
research. There are various types of research and each individual research is distinguished
from others. The principles to make good research are also discussed in this report. Those
principles provide information to a researcher what should and should not do in the whole
research process.

Nature and Principle of Good Research

Definition and Usefulness of Good Research

Research is a work to increase the power of knowledge. It can do through creative or
systematic work. The research engages with performance. Research is done for establishing
new facts or conclusions which can provide ease to human for doing work (Cressey, 2016).
Research also has done based on previous theory to develop new theory, or to prove that
previous theory is not best for use. Research is essential because it finds new facts that can
help a man.

Man is very curious to know the new truths about life earth or the scientific method. That is
why man does research which ultimately tells the facts people are using is right or wrong or
what should they use the better version of the truth. It is a process that deals with collecting
and analyzing the information and giving the best output from this whole process (Wright ,
2016).

Research has a study implication which means the output of good research can help a student
further to understand the topic better. Besides it has implication not only in academic or
professional sector but also it helps to understand a topic very clearly and efficiently. It helps
man to do exercise his/her mindfully which means they can do brainstorming when they
engaged in any research activities.
Different Kinds of Nature of Researches
There are different natures of researches. Systematic, scientific, objectivity, definiteness,
generality are some kind of research. The process of research can divide by qualitative and
quantitative.

Scientific research is research that is analyzing data about scientific theories(Cutter-

Mackenzie, Malone and Barratt-Hacking, 2018). There are many types of scientific research.
Observational, experimental, descriptive, analytical, prospective, etc are some examples of
scientific research. Systemic research is a type where secondary data are collected and
summarize the output qualitatively or quantitatively.

Objectivity research refers to where many researchers are working on the same observation
or the same researcher using a different method for doing the research. Definiteness research
includes only facts. It is a type of research where a researcher can not include any personal
belief, thought or opinion they should present the fact from the findings (Wright, 2016).
Verifiable research is the kind of research in which the researcher can verify the outcome for
people who will use the researching output (Cressey, 2016). It shouldn’t always do by
scientific theory or method but it can verify in any other way.

Generality research deals with behavior. Besides, there are some researches called
modifiability, predictability, dynamicity, etc. The research process which means the
qualitative or quantitative process has distinct characteristics from the nature of researches.

Qualitative research deals with human behavior or other variables that govern such behavior.
Asking many broad questions and collecting answers, Images, videos used to analyze the
information. Above all this process is related to investigate a question and answer without
any quantitative variables. Normally it is done through hypothesis tests and also time-
consuming (Cutter-Mackenzie, Malone and Barratt-Hacking, 2018). Furthermore, sometimes
qualitative research works as a base to do quantitative research. The data are mainly
unstructured and analysis is interpretive. In addition, the aim of qualitative research is to
provide full detailed information or survey results.

The quantitative research process includes empirical investigation which deals with the
relationship and quantitative data. Moreover, quantitative data ask and collect small data
values that involved statistical analysis. The aim of quantitative data is the number of
observations can be calculated or not (Kite and Whitley, 2018). The data of quantitative
research is structured and a large number of cases use quantitative research.

Principles of Doing Good Research

To make an efficient research report researcher have to maintain and follow some principles
which will help them to come with a good research report based on its nature. The first
principle of good research is selectiveness which tells a researcher that only relative and
necessary information should include in the report. It will save time and cost also energy. But
the researcher should be careful because vital points should not be missed.

The second one is the Comprehensiveness. It tells that it should be complete and contain all
detail meaningful information. The next principle is Cost Consideration which says that the
research would be done within budget. To make a high profile efficient report the cost cannot
exceed the budget.

Accuracy of the report is most important because research helps to establish new facts or
terms (Slideshare.net, 2020). So the researcher should be careful while making a report and
analyzing the data because it should be correctly spelled and free from grammatical errors.

Furthermore, objectivity is another important principle. The research result should be free
from any biasness. Personal opinion likes dislikes should not affect the research output. It
should be the actual output of research. It should be a bitter truth and reality. It should be
related to the objectivity of the research and must meet the expectation of its related parties
(Kite and Whitley, 2018).

Clarity is another essential principle for good research. The methodology, outcomes should
be clear. No ambiguous and vague information should be displayed on research. The contents
should be clear. Good research contains simplicity in nature. The whole research should be
simple to understand. Proper language should be used so that it can provide useful
information to its target users and the research should be decorated with suitable words and
sentences.

The information and output should be reliable. The information should collect from a reliable
source and they should correctly be used in the research process (DeBakey, 2017). Correct
information ultimately will increase the reliability of research.
The research should be done using the standard format. The standard format means that
format is commonly used and goes with contemporary practices. The researcher should not
use a format based on his/her personal choice or a completely new format (Slideshare.net,
2020). The research topic should be attractive. The necessary diagrams, graphs, figures
should provide with the report to make it look attractive.

Conclusion
The report describes the terms condition and nature of good research. Research is a way to
stock knowledge through creative or scientific analysis. There are different kinds of research
and all contain different characteristics from another. Systematic, Objectivity, Quantitative,
Qualitative, etc. are some examples of the nature of researches but they are totally different
from one another. The principles of good research play a significant role to provide the best
output correctly to the research users. Proper format, Clarity, Simplicity, Objectivity etc.
should maintain to make good and efficient research. Therefore this report will give a proper
understanding of good research and its other necessary elements.
