 Applied Research:- Aims at finding solution for an immediate problem
facing a society or an industry/ business organizations
 Quantitative Research:-Based on the measurement of quantity or amount.
Applicable to phenomena that can be expressed in terms of quantity.
 Conceptual Research: - Related to some abstract ideas or
theory. Used by philosophers and thinkers to develop new
concepts or re-interpret existing ones.
 Empirical Research: - Relies on experience or observations
alone, often without due regard for system and theory.
 Qualitative Research: - Concerned with qualitative
phenomenon, i.e. phenomenon relating to or involving quality
or kind
 Fundamental Research: - Mainly concerned with
generalizations and with the formulation of a theory.
 Analytical Research: - Researcher has to use facts on
information already available and analyze these to make a
critical evaluation of the material.
RESEARCH METHODS Vs. RESEARCH
METHODOLOGY
 Research Methods:- Refers to the methods/ techniques
researchers use in performing research operations.
 Research Methodology:- It may be understood as a science of
studying how research is done scientifically. In it we study the
various steps that are generally adopted by researcher in studying
his research problem along with the logic behind them.
Choose a subject
 Based on an idea
 Based on your experience
 Based on your reading
 Originality
Choose a study design
 Case report
 Case series
 Case controlled study
 Cross sectional
 Cohort
 Retrospective comparison
 Prospective Comparison
A Case report
 Description of one interesting and unusual case
 This is anecdotal and may form the basis for further study
 This may be the only way to report on something very rare
Case series
 Description of several cases in which no attempt is made to
answer specific hypotheses or compare results with another
group of cases.
Cross sectional study
 A survey of the frequency of disease, risk factors or other
characteristics in a defined population at one particular point
in time.
Cohort study
 An observational study of a group of people with a specific
characteristic or disease who are followed over a period of
time to detect change
 Comparison with control group is allowed
Case control study
 An observational study where characteristics of people with a
disease (cases) are compared with selected people without
the disease (controls)
Controlled Trials
 An experimental study in which an intervention is applied to
one group and the outcome compared with that in a similar
group (controls) not receiving the intervention
