FUNDAMENTA DEVELOPMENT
L AL
RESEARCH RESEARCH

Research is performing a methodical study in order to prove or disprove a


hypothesis, or answer a specific question. Research can then follow a series of steps
and the standard protocol of experiment, depending on the conventions of that field
of science. This time you will be learning the different types of research according to
their categories.

After this lesson you are expected to accomplish the


following: 1. Recognize the different types of Research;
and
2. Analyze an abstract to identify type of research used in that study.

INPUT
TYPES OF RESEARCH

A. According to Purpose

1. Fundamental/Basic
-its purpose is to generate new idea, theory, or knowledge and not to prove anything wrong or right.
2. Applied/Action Research
-its purpose is to solve a particular problem. Action research focuses on specific and smaller scale problem
while Applied research focuses on greater scale problem.
3. Developmental Research
-it is the systematic study of designing, developing, and evaluating instructional programs, processes, and
products that must meet criteria of internal consistency and effectiveness.

B. According to Location

1. Library Research
-this is carried on documentary or content research.
2. Laboratory Research
-is carried “in vivo” where live materials are used and “in vitro” where artificial or non-living materials are
used.
3. Field Research
-deals with creation and collection of actual and authentic information by field of operation in any
organization. The process involves determining what precise data is necessary and from where this
information needs to be obtained.

C. According to Data Used

1. Quantitative Research
-collects and analyzes numerical data. It is the systematic empirical investigation of observable
phenomena via statistical, mathematical, or computational techniques.
2. Qualitative Research
-a scientific method of observation to gather non-numerical data. This type of research "refers to the
meanings, concepts, definitions, characteristics, metaphors, symbols, and description of things" and not to
their "counts or measures".

D. According to Scope

1. Study – a single study


2. Project – two or more studies
3. Program – more broad in coverage

E. According to Methodology

1. Historical Research
-studies the meaning of past events in an attempt to interpret the facts and explain the cause of events,
and their effect in the present events.
2. Descriptive Research
-Descriptive research is used to describe characteristics of a population or phenomenon being studied.
3. Experimental Research
-Experimental research is any research conducted with a scientific approach, where a set of variables are
kept constant while the other set of variables are being measured as the subject of experiment.
4. Expost Facto/ Causal Research
-Ex post facto design is a quasi-experimental study examining how an independent variable, present prior
to the study in the participants, affects a dependent variable.
5. Ethnographic Research
-Ethnographic research is a qualitative method where researchers observe and/or interact with
a study's participants in their real-life environment.
6. Phenomenological Research
- is an approach to qualitative research that focuses on the commonality of a lved experience within a
partivular group. the fundamental goal of the study is to arrive at a description of the nature of the
particular phenomenon.
7. Correlation Research
- makes comparisons, looking for trends or tendencies. The purpose is to find relationships between two
or more variable so to better understand the conditions and events that we encounter (what goes with
what); to predict future conditions and events.

Note that when you conduct your research you may


actually have mixed types of research depending on
the goals of your study or the problem of your study.
This means that some of the types of research can be
found in one research paper. Your research adviser will
help you choose the right type of research or methods
of research. Always seek help from research experts
when doing your research.
