4 CATEGORIES OF RESEARCH
(SCHUTT)
1 . DESCRIPTIVE – attempts to define
and describe the social phenomenon
under investigation(population,
situation, phenomena )
2. EXPLORATORY – seeks to identify
the underlying meaning behind actions
and individual behaviour( not previously
been studied,no past data)
3. EXPLANATORY – seeks to identify
the cause and effect(s) of social
phenomena( to generate new
knowledge,. to understand why
something happen )
4. EVALUATIVE – seeks to determine
the effects on an intervention on
individual behaviour ( assessment
or appraisal of an object,a ctivity,
program )
TWO MAJOR RESEARCH PARADIGMS
A. QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH METHODS
– a systematic investigation of
phenomena by gathering quantifiable
data and performing statistical ,
mathematical or computational
techniques.
concerned with measuring criminological
or criminal justice reality.
Variables – refers to a person,
place, thing or phenomenon that
you are trying to measure in some
way.
studies to examine patterns of
relation, covariation and cause
and effect
DEPENDENT VARIABLES – commonly
referred to as the outcome variable; this is
2 TYPES OF VARIABLE
what the researcher is attempting to detect
and measure in the experiment and what is
affected during the experiment. It responds
to the independent variable. You cannot
have a dependent variable without an
independent variable .
Effect
Depends on other factors that are
measured.
INDEPENDENT VARIABLE – commonly
referred to as the predictor variable,
and it is the variable that causes,
determines, or precedes in time the
dependent variable (Hagan )
Variable which is presumed to affect or
determined a dependent variable.
Cause
Ex. In a study to determine how
long a student sleeps affects test
scores, the independent variable
is the length of time sleeping and
the dependent variable is the test
score.
THREE CRITERIA NEEDED TO ESTABLISH
CAUSALITY
A. ASSOCIATION – the dependent and
independent variable must be related to one
another
B. TIME ORDER – the independent variable must
precede the dependent variables in time
C. NON SPURIOUSNESS – if the relationship
between the independent variable is not due to
variation in some unobserved third variable
RESEARCH DESIGN
The plan or blue print for a
study that includes the 5
W’s and 1 H . (Hagan )
The overall strategy utilized to
carry out the research.
Framework of research methods
QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH METHODS
. SURVEY RESEARCH – involve the collection of
 1
information from a sample of individuals through
their responses to questions ( Schutt ) . Survey
Contains :
A. OPEN ENDED QUESTION ask the respondent to
provide an answer to particular question.
Ex. What are the main reasons of choosing CBRC
as your review center ?
What had the biggest influence on you to choose
CBRC ?
Close ended QUESTION – ask the
respondent to select an answer
from a list of choices provided .
Surveys are versatile,
inexpensive and generalizable.
2. EXPERIMENTAL AND QUASI EXPERIMENTAL
RESEARCH – A Study that adheres to a scientific
research design
the best type of research to asses cause and effect
(Sheirman and Weisburd) True experiments must have at
least three features (!) two comparison group (2)
Variation in the independent variable and variable
before assessment of changes in the dependent
variable (3) random assignment in the two or more
comparison groups . Many experiment contain :
( two variables )
A. Pre test – Test measures the dependent
variable prior to the experimental intervention
B. Post Test – Test measures the outcome
variable after the experimental group has
received the treatment
C. Randomization – What makes the
comparison group is a true experiment a
powerful approach for identifying the effects of
the treatment 9Schutt) , to ensure the
systematic bias does not affect

Example :
In order to test the effects of a new drug
intended to treat a certain medical
condition like Corona Virus, if a sample of
three groups of person children, adult and
elders ,will received the same shots of
vaccine and afterwards compare and
observe it.
3. CROSS SECTIONAL RESEARCH –
involves studies of one group at
one time , they offer a quick
glimpse or snap shot of the
phenomena being studied.
Collecting data from many
different people at a single point
in time .( measures the outcome
and exposure )
4. LONGITUDINAL RESEARCH – has
used two designs , the panel and
cohort studies : concerned with
assessing within and between group
change
Requires a researcher to revisit
participants of the study at proper
intervals ( involves repeated
observations of the same variables
overshort or long period of time )
A. PANEL STUDIES – follow the same
group or sample over time, as they
change over time, and typically studies
and interview the same set of people at
two or more periods of time .
B. COHORT STUDIES – follow individuals
or specific cohort / more specific
populations as they change over time
5. TIME SERIES DESIGN – involve variations of
multiple observation of the same group , (
person, city, area ) over time at successive
points in time. They analyse a single variable at
successive time periods, an are especially useful
for studies of the impact of new laws or social
programs.
Involve single subjects or research units that are
measured repeatedly at regular intervals over
time ( large series of observation with thime
series analysin )
6. META ANALYSIS – the quantitative
analysis of findings from multiple
studies. Involves research putting
together the results of several studies
and making summary, empirical
statements about some cause and
effect relationship. ( assess the result of
previous research to derive conclusions
about the body of research
B. QUALITTATIVE RESEARCH METHODS –
designed to capture life as participant
experienced in it, involves exploratory
research, inductive reasoning,
orientation to social context and human
subjectivity and the meanings attached
by the participants to events and to
their lives .
The data generally non numerical
QUALITATIVE RESEARCH DESIGN

1. PARTICIPANT OBSERVATION –


involves a variety of strategies in data
gathering in which the researcher
observes a group by participating , to
a varying degrees, in the activities of
the group.
4 DIFFERENT POSITIONS
A. COMPLETE PARTICIPANT – takes place
when the researcher joins in and actually
begins to manipulate the direction of group
activity
B. PARTICIPANT AS OBSERVER – the researcher
usually makes himself known and tries to
objectively observe the activities of the group
C. OBSERVER AS PARTICIPANT – A one-
visit interview, where the interviewees
re also short-term participant observers
The participants know the goal of the
researcher
D. COMPLETE OBSERVER – relies on sole
observation absent participation from
the researcher
2. INTENSIVE INTERVIEWING or In
depth interview – consist of open-
ended, relatively unstructured questioning
in which the interviewer seeks in depth
formation on the interviewees feelings,
experience, or perceptions and does not
require systematic observation of
respondents in their natural setting.
3. FOCUS GROUPS – are groups of unrelated
individuals that are formed by a researcher and
then led in group discussion of a topic. The
researcher ask specific questions and guides the
discussion to ensure the group members address
these questions.

4. CASE STUDIES AND LIFE HISTORIES – are in-


depth qualitative studies , of one or few
illustrative cases
RESEARCH DESIGN ACCORDING TO PURPOSE
1. PREDICTIVE OR PROGNOSTIC –
determines the future operation of the
variable being investigated
2.DIRECTIVE – determines what should be
done based on the findings
 3. ILLUMINATIVE – concerned with the
interaction of the components of the
variable being investigated
RESEARCH DESIGN ACCORDING TO GOAL
 1. BASIC OR PURE – done for the
development of theories and principles
A systematic study directed towards a
greater knowledge or understanding of the
fundamental aspects of phenomena and of
observable facts without application. (
improving scientific theories qand prediction
of other phenomena )
 2APPLIED – application of the
.
results of pure research
A research methodology that
creates practical solutions for
specific problems. (solve
practical problems )
Example of basic research :
A study looking at how caffeine will affect the brain
A study assessing whether men or women are more
likely to be diagnosed with depression

Example of applied research


Investigating treatment and management options
for anxiety and panic attacks

which the use of numbers is
practically not
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN T –TEST AND CHI
SQUARE
T- TEST – Allows you to answer the
question, are these two groups
statistically different from each other ?
When you reject the null hypothesis with
the use of T-TEST – you are saying that
the means are statistically different. The
Difference is meaningful
Chi SQUARE – allows you to test
whether there is a relationship between
two variables. , but does bot tell you
the direction of the relationship.
