RESEARCH ACCORDING TO
INQUIRY
Rationalistic Research
This type of inquiry begins with an existing scholarly
theory using formal instruments in gathering data. The
theory itself serves as the take-off point of the inquiry. But
the researcher needs to validate or test the theory having
due regard to theory assumptions.

The researcher investigates the individual’s thoughts,
values, perception, and even actions wherein understanding
human behaviour is the main concern.

RESEARCH ACCORDING TO
INQUIRY
Developmental Research
This type of inquiry utilizes systematic
techniques and introduces innovations based on
scientific research findings. The researcher’s
aim is to develop new materials, devices,
services that are largely designed to improve
man’s life.
RESEARCH ACCORDING TO
PURPOSE
1. Basic (Fundamental or Pure)
Research
2. Applied Research
RESEARCH ACCORDING TO
PURPOSE
Basic (Fundamental or Pure) Research
The researcher carries out the research
process mainly to develop fuller scientific
knowledge.
RESEARCH ACCORDING TO
PURPOSE
Applied Research
This is carried out to find answers to a
research problem and apply the knowledge
in certain situation.
RESEARCH ACCORDING TO
METHODOLOGY
1. Qualitative Research
2. Quantitative Research
3. Mixed Methods
RESEARCH ACCORDING TO
METHODOLOGY
Qualitative Research
This is concerned in inquiring about a
certain phenomenon or event, individual’s
behavior, culture, practices, and values, such as
beliefs and perceptions. The data are then
described and reported in textual form.
RESEARCH ACCORDING TO
METHODOLOGY
Quantitative Research
This dwells on investigating certain
phenomenon event wherein data are usually
characterized by numerical measures.
RESEARCH ACCORDING TO
METHODOLOGY
Mixed Methods
This method of research uses both
qualitative and quantitative methods. This
combines the use of qualitative and quantitative
data, approaches, methodologies, paradigms or
frameworks.
RESEARCH ACCORDING TO
DESIGN
1. Experimental Research
2. Non-Experimental Research
RESEARCH ACCORDING TO
DESIGN
Experimental Research
This comes into sub-categories: pure experimental
design and quasi-experimental design. The former is
characterized by three components – manipulation,
randomization, and control that are usually considered in
experimentation. When participants are not randomly
assigned or when one of the three components is not
considered it becomes the latter.
RESEARCH ACCORDING TO
DESIGN
Non- Experimental Research
It has the following sub-categories:
descriptive design, historical design,
correlational design, ex post facto design and
evaluation design.
NON- EXPERIMENTAL
RESEARCH
Descriptive Design
This is used for a research which merely describes
characteristics of a population or phenomenon.

Historical Design
This features critical investigation of past events,
developments as well as experiences
NON- EXPERIMENTAL
RESEARCH
Correlational Design
It is used when the researcher’s objective is to
determine the relationship between two sets of data. The
term is also called association or relationship.

Ex post facto Design


The inquiry begins after the fact has occurred without
the researcher directly controlling the independent variable.
NON- EXPERIMENTAL
RESEARCH
Evaluation Design
This is conducted usually to determine if a
program is effective or the other way around. It is best
to use if the purpose of the investigation is to make a
judgment about the value of the program either to
terminate or sustain it.
QUANTITATIVE AND
QUALITITATIVE RESEARCH
Qualitative Research Quantitative Research

Goal Goal
This intends to provide a rich description of phenomenon This attempts to develop a hypothesis from the observed
or event phenomenon and present numeric findings in an attempt
to explain or predict the occurrence of related event.

Describes, predicts, and explains a phenomenon


Describes, explains, and discovers a phenomenon
Design Design
This is determined as the inquiry unfolds This is done before the research plan is fully
implemented.

Method Method
This is dependent on true experiment, quasi experiment, In naturalistic research, this entails intense interaction
and qualitative non-experimental method between the researcher and informant

Instrument Instrument
The researcher serves as no less than the data-gathering There are instruments such as survey questionnaire,
instrument observation checklist, interview guide.

Research Data Research Data


Data are reported in a form of words, pictures, or objects. Data are analyzed using statistical tools and techniques.
The research generates figures or numbers.
