3. INTRODUCTION
In general, research methodology refers to a systematic
way of solving a research problem and it is the process of
studding how a research is carried out systematically
(Snyder, 2019).
In the research, methodology is often noted to be an
important section as it is can impress the readers most
efficiently.
The success and overall consistency of the study will be
determined by the methodology chosen for the research.
4. Research methodology is often written using a model or structure that helps
readers understand the process.
The following steps will exemplify how can a research methodology prepared to
make the reader more interesting
5.
6. STEP 1: FOCUS ON YOUR AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
First, while writing the research methodology chapter, ensure that your research
choices needs to be linked with the study aims and objectives.
Methodology section should specifically demonstrate why your approaches are
appropriate for your goals and persuade the reader that you choose the right solution
to solving your research problem and addressing your study questions.
STEP 2: IDENTIFY RESEARCH METHODS THAT SUITS YOUR RESEARCH
PROBLEM
A good research method includes all of the elements necessary to persuade the
reader that the research in question is both practical and useful.
7. Generally, quantitative and qualitative research methods are the two types of
research methods chosen for conducting a study (Rekt Capital, 2021).
Quantitative study will be chosen when your study aims to examine the relationship
between the variables whereas qualitative study will be chosen when your study
aims to examine real-world awareness about a particular group of people's
attitudes, social dynamics, and common values.
STEP 3: RATIONALE FOR SELECTING THE PARTICULAR RESEARCH METHODS
Once you decided to select a research method, then you need to provide the
justification for choosing the particular method and how it links with achieving your
study objectives.
8. STEP 4: CONSIDER YOUR AUDIENCE AND THINK HOW YOU WILL COLLECT
DATA FOR THE STUDY
Consider the target audience who will be reading it while writing the methodology.
Think what type of data you can collect and think how it can be feasible.
STEP 5: ANALYZE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF DATA COLLECTION METHODS
AVAILABLE AND IDENTIFY DATA COLLECTION METHOD THAT IS FEASIBLE
The data collection is recognized as the process of collecting information from the
relevant sources to answer the research problems, test the hypotheses, and
evaluate the outcomes.
9. They are generally of two types- a) Primary and b) Secondary data (Naveen &
Sivapullaiah, 2020; Syed Muhammad Sajjad Kabir, 2016).
Basically primary data is collected with the help of survey and interview and secondary
data with the help of previously published papers, reports, case studies etc.
You can choose either primary or secondary data collection technique based on
the research method you have chosen
STEP 6: ANALYZE THE DIFFERENT DATA ANALYSIS TECHNIQUES THAT SUITS
TO ANALYZE THE COLLECTED DATA
Once the data collection technique is fixed, you need to analyze what are the
tools that can be used to analyze the collected dat.
10. If your research is of quantitative nature, then you have to carry statistical analysis
where statistical tests like two-tailed t-test, simple linear regression, correlation analysis
etc.
will be performed using statistical software’s such as SPSS, Stata or R etc.
On the other hand, in quantitative research, In qualitative research, Words,
photographs, and conclusions (often including some kind of textual interpretation) will
be included in the analysis.
The type of analysis includes, thematic analysis, Content analysis and Discourse
analysis Thus, in a research methodology the above said information needs to be
presented in a structured format which in turn will help readers to understand the
process of the study being carried out.
