Research is generally categorized into four main types: basic research, applied research, evaluation research, and action research. Basic research seeks to expand knowledge without looking for long-term benefits, applied research focuses on solving practical problems, evaluation research determines the effectiveness of programs or strategies, and action research involves studying a real-world problem to implement a solution in practice.
