, QUESTION 1: Empirical Research and Its Components (15
Marks)
1. Introduction to Empirical Research (2 pages)
Definition: Empirical research is defined as a method of
gaining knowledge through direct or indirect observation or
experience. It is rooted in the scientific method and
emphasizes the collection of data to answer specific
research questions.
Historical Context: The evolution of empirical research
can be traced back to philosophers like John Locke and
David Hume, who emphasized observation as a basis for
knowledge. In modern times, the scientific method has
become the gold standard for empirical studies.
Importance: Empirical research provides the foundation
for evidence-based practice across various disciplines,
including medicine, psychology, and education. It enables
researchers to make informed decisions, develop theories,
and influence policy.
2. Key Components of Empirical Research (8 pages)
Research Question (1 page)
o A clear and focused research question is vital as it
guides the entire research process.
o Example: “What are the effects of sleep deprivation on
cognitive performance in college students?” This
question is specific, measurable, and relevant.
