Research - ✔✔-systematic process of collecting and analyzing data for some purpose

such as investigating a problem or answering a question



Evidence-based inquiry - ✔✔-search for knowledge using empirical data which has

been gathered systematically



Inductive Research - ✔✔-this research begins at the real world, practical level. It tends to be

descriptive, correlational, or historical and leads to the building of theory.



Deductive Research - ✔✔-this research springs from theory which is already established.

This research tries to determine what the relationships are between elements of the theory and may be
experimental in nature.



Survey - ✔✔-this non-experimental design may occur through questionnaires, interviews, etc. and is
used to measure attitudes, perceptions, etc.



Descriptive - ✔✔-this research simply describes an existing state of events. Numbers may be used to
characterize groups or individuals



Comparative - ✔✔-this research method investigates whether there are differences between two or
more groups. There is no manipulation of conditions experienced by each group



Correlational - ✔✔-this research method uses the correlation coefficient to determine the degree of
relationship between two or more variables or phenomena.

, Ex Post Facto - ✔✔-Also called causal-comparative, this research design studies possible causal

individual or group treated as an individual, usually after a baseline has been established



Action Research - ✔✔-research conducted in an attempt to improve services or a program. This research
