Introduction to Research Methodology for Law and Criminal Justice

Question 1

Empirical Research refers to the systematic investigation of observable phenomena
through direct or indirect observation or experience. This type of research is grounded
in evidence that can be verified or measured rather than theory alone. The primary goal
of empirical research is to generate knowledge based on factual and observable data,
allowing researchers to make informed conclusions.

Components of Empirical Research:

1. Research Question or Hypothesis:
o Every empirical study begins with a research question or hypothesis. This
outlines what the researcher intends to investigate or what they expect to
find. The question should be clear, specific, and measurable.
o Example: A researcher may ask, "Does exercise improve mental health
among teenagers?"
2. Literature Review:
o Before conducting an empirical study, it’s essential to review existing
research to understand what is already known about the topic. This helps
to identify gaps that the research might fill and provides context for the
study.
o Example: A review of previous studies on the effects of exercise on mental
health may reveal that most research has focused on adults, leading to
the need for a study focused on teenagers.
3. Methodology:
