Types of Research According to Data

Research can be divided into several approaches (case study, ethnographic study,
experimental research, action research, and participatory research) and broad categories
(types of research according to data, purpose, and application). In this module, our focus
will be on the types of research according to data, which are qualitative and quantitative
research. Both are branched out from different philosophical assumptions that make
researchers look at problems differently and adapt a better analyzation of the gathered data.

Qualitative research is based on an approach in which researchers see the world

around them as an interconnected network that highlights social reality as what people
EXPERIENCE, how they do, and perform as well as think and feel. On the other hand,
Quantitative research is directly connected with research in the field of mathematics,
natural and physical science, and other numerical data-based fields.

These days, new methodologies are arising that result in the combination of both
quantitative and qualitative methods in the same study that provide a more complete
explanation of research results and findings compared to methodologies using one method
alone.

Qualitative Research

Qualitative research is mainly an exploratory research that is used to give an in-depth

understanding to underlying reasons, opinions, and motivations such as in ethnography,
phenomenology, narrative, grounded theory, historical researches, and case study. The
sample size of this type is typically small and more flexible because it allows more
naturalness and adjustment on the interaction between the researcher and participant. It
deals with techniques, designs, and measures that do not result to discrete numerical data
and involves extensive narrative data to gain insights into phenomena.

Note that a qualitative research seeks out to gather, integrate, and present data from a
variety of sources of evidence.

Quantitative Research

Quantitative research is more often related with hard data and includes designs,
techniques, and measures that produce numerical data where analysis of it, is mostly
STATISTICAL. Remember that this type of research is not limited to mathematics and
commonly used to quantify the results or to put numerical equivalents. Studies of this kind
of research include experimental and non-experimental/descriptive researches (correlation,
survey, normative, causal-comparative, evaluative, and methodological).
It is frequently used to quantify the problem by generating numerical data that can be
transformed into usable statistics. It can quantify attitudes, behaviors, opinions, and other
defined variable that can be generalized, and results from a large sample of populations.

Now that you have examined and compared qualitative and quantitative research in
different criteria, both have similarities in terms of the new knowledge created by empirical
data through observing phenomena or inferencing by observation of what people do or say in
a given setting; and the universality of ideas in finding meaning for the research results
beyond a particular study.

contributions.

Types of Research according to Application

In the previous lesson, you have learned the types of research according to data, namely
Qualitative and Quantitative Research. In this module, we will explore the application of
research in various field of interests in which researches are inspired by their quest for
understanding and consideration of use.

1. Pure or Basic Research. It aimed at gaining a better understanding of a subject,

phenomenon, or basic law of nature. This type of research is primarily focused on
the advancement of knowledge rather than solving a specific problem. Typically,
basic research can be exploratory, descriptive, or explanatory. Examples of basic
12
 research can be seen in medicine, education, psychology, technology, to mention but
a few:
Example:
• How do teaching methods affect student's concentration in class?
• A research to determine the chemical composition of organic molecules.
• To what extent do gender stereotypes trigger depression?
• An investigation into the symptoms of Coronavirus.

2. Applied Research. It is concerned with solving practical problems using scientific

methods. It is typically a follow-up research design that further investigates the
findings of pure or basic research to validate these findings and apply them to create
innovative solutions. Examples of applied research can be seen in medicine,
education, business, engineering, psychology, and health.
Example:
• Applied research to improve workplace efficiency and organizational policies.
• A study into the way to improve a school's readiness for its students.
• Applied research to improve agricultural crop production.
• Investigating factors that improve worker's productivity.
• An investigation to identify the side effects of using a particular drug.
There are 3 types of applied research: Evaluation research, Research and
Development, and Action Research.
➢ Evaluation Research analyses existing information about a research subject
to arrive at objective research outcomes or reach informed decisions. This type
of applied research is mostly applied in business contexts, for example, an
organization may adopt evaluation research to determine how to cut down
overhead costs.

➢ Research and Development is focused on developing new products and

services based on the needs of target markets. It focuses on gathering
information about marketing needs and finding ways to improve on an existing
product or create new products that satisfy the identified needs.
➢ Action Research is set on providing practical solutions to specific business
problems by pointing the business in the right directions. Typically, action
research is a process of reflective inquiry that is limited to specific contexts
and situational in nature.

Kinds of Research across Fields

Research has brought various fields and industries to improve communities and
economic status such as in Business. An entrepreneur - researcher who conducts research
with return on investment (ROI) will find ways to make his research profitable. For instance,
the owners of Palaweño Brewery conducted a preliminary experimental research on craft
beers and its marketing. The Palaweño Brewery started small scale in Puerto Princesa City
and has now grown and expanded through concessionaires in various cities in the
Philippines and abroad. From the humble beginnings the owner-researchers rose to success
through acceptable, salable, and profitable research output.

Just as how useful research is in the business industry, research has contributed
big in other fields:
