Scientific Research
Are you interested in how research is conducted?
Scientific Research is the neutral, systematic,
planned, and multiple-step process that uses previously discovered facts
to advance knowledge that does not exist in the literature. It can be
classified as observational or experimental with respect to data
collection techniques, descriptive or analytical with respect to
causality, and prospective, retrospective, or cross-sectional with
respect to time.
All scientific investigations start with a specific research question
and the formulation of a hypothesis to answer this question. Hypothesis
should be clear, specific, and directly aim to answer the research
question. A strong and testable hypothesis is the fundamental part of
the scientific research. The next step is testing the hypothesis using
scientific method to approve or disapprove it.
