  6. Definition An enquiry into the nature of, reasons for and of a set of circumstances that are consequences controlled experimentally or recorded naturally as they take place. The process of systematically obtaining accurate significant and pertinent questions by the answers to use of scientific method of gathering and interpreting information. Clover and Basley
  7. Objectives of Research To gain familiarity with a particular situation or to achieve new insights into it To find appropriate solutions to specific problems To collect information To verify and test existing facts and theories To analyze inter relationships between variables and to derive causal explanations To develop new tools , concepts and theories To plan for national development

  9. Types of Research Basic Research Historical Research Applied Research Exploratory Research Descriptive Research Experimental Research Ex Post Facto Case study
  10. Basic/Fundamental/Pure Research Undertaken for the sake of knowledge without any intention to apply it in practice Undertaken out of intellectual curiosity Not necessarily problem oriented Basis of many scientific inventions Basis of many principles
  11. Applied Research To find solution to a real life problem requiring an action or policy decision It seeks immediate and practical result It utilizes the knowledge gained in basic research to find practically implementable solutions
  12. Descriptive Research Provides factors or details of a particular event or situation Also known as statistical research It describes the data and characteristics about the population or phenomenon being studied Answers the questions who, what, when, where and how The researcher has no control over variables The researcher only reports what has happened or is ha enin
  13. Historical Research Research based on describing past ' Includes investigations like recording, analysis and interpretation of events in the past The generalizations and deductions are used in understanding the past, the present and anticipate the future Researcher is dependant on availability of documentary sources ' Only compilation of chronological events is not considered research in itself Researcher must interpret the events that took place by pointing out their relationship to the problem investigated
  14. Exploratory/ Formulative Research Deals with subject about which either no information or little information is available Generally qualitative Helps us to investigate a problem with a suitable hypothesis and then testing it with tools

  21. Experimental Research An experiment is a study involving intervention by the researcher Characterized by control over the research environment Used to assess effects of particular variables on a phenomenon by keeping the other variables constant or controlled Used to determine whether and in what manner variables are related to each other
  22. Simulation Involves constructing an artificial environment within which relevant information and data can be generated Used as an alternative to lab or field observation A model building technique Artificially created environment not much different from reality Reproduces conditions of a real life situation
