LESSON 1: RESEARCH
RESEARCH - everything should be quantified to produce
meaningful concrete results
- the systematic investigation into and study of
materials and sources in order to establish facts 2. Constructivist
and reach new conclusions
- experience expressed through words can paint
WHY STUDY RESEARCH? a better picture of a certain phenomena
- to improve and develop new methods 3. Transformative
- to contribute knowledge and progress - increase quality of life and produce better
societies
- to develop better understanding of published
works 4. Pragmatic
- to develop independent critical thinking skills - use of both qualitative and quantitative data in
along with oral and written communication expressing research findings
skills
RESEARCH PROCESS
QUALITIES OF A GOOD RESEARCHER
1. Conceptualization Phase
1. Care
- concept making
- distinct characteristics of a researcher
2. Design Phase
2. Utility Competency
- planning
- ability to troubleshoot during unexpected
scenario 3. Empirical Phase
3. Technical Competency - data collection
- ability use available technologies 4. Analytical Phase
4. Effort - data analysis/interpretation
- time and skill 5. Dissemination
5. Service - utilization
- willingness of the researcher to serve others, to RESEARCH APPROACH
do good 1. Qualitative Research
6. Patience - exploring and understanding the meaning
- intra (within) and extra (outside) group individuals or groups ascribe to a social or
human problems
7. Guts and Risk
2. Quantitative Research
- considering options
- testing objective theories by examining
PHILOSOPHICAL WORLDVIEWS IN relationship among variables
RESEARCH
3. Mixed Approach
1. Postpositivist
- collecting both quantitative and qualitative
data and integrating the two forms of data

RESEARCH FORMAT - gathered using structured research
instruments
1. Traditional
- uses tools, such as questionnaires
- manuscript are written by-chapter
- based on larger sample sizes
2. International
- data are in the form of numbers and statistics,
- manuscripts are written in IMRAD often arranged in tables, charts, figures, or
(Introduction-Method-Results-Discussion) other non-textual forms
format and content based on American
Psychological Association (APA, 7th Edition - can usually be replicated or repeated
Standards)
QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH APPROACH
3. OLFU-RDIC (Our Lady of Fatima
University Research Development and ➢ NON-EXPERIMENTAL
Innovation Center) RESEARCH
- promotes the use of APA style and content, use - the association or connections
of 6,000-9,000 word range for the whole between variables
manuscript and the following sections/outline of - without manipulation of variables
the manuscript
1. Survey Research
OLFU-RDIC SECTION/OUTLINE OF THE
MANUSCRIPT - most common method used for
quantitative study and be in a form of
1.0 Introduction - contextual questionnaire or interview
2.0 Literature Review - contextual 2. Correlational Research
3.0 Methods - procedural - determine the relationship
4.0 Results - substantial between two variables
5.0 Discussion - substantial 3. Comparative Research
6.0 Recommendation - substantial - comparisons are based on
descriptive data, showing that a
LESSON 2: QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH difference exists but does not
imply causation
QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
➢ EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH
- statistical, mathematical or computational
methods - establishes causality and often
used when an intervention is being
- expressions are in numerical forms, objectivity studied
of data
- with manipulation of variables
- aims to find the relationship between one
variable to another 1. Quasi Experimental
CHARACTERISTICS OF QUANTITATIVE - studies that aim to evaluate
APPROACH intervention but that do not use
randomization
- clearly defined research question
- similar to randomized trials,
- generalize concepts more widely, predict quasi-experiments aim to demonstrate
future results causality between an intervention
and an outcome
