5. KINDS OF RESEARCH
ACROSS FIELDS
The Descriptive Method
Descriptive research describes the phenomena being studied. It
addresses the “what” question. Data are gathered and descriptive
statistics are then used to analyze such data. Thus, descriptive
research considers one variable at a time (i.e., univariate
analysis), and is typically the entry-level type of research in a new
area of inquiry. It

TITLES:
1. Is Food Intake Associated with Pre-Adolescent Obesity? : An
Observational Study in Metro Manila, Philippines.
2. Water Pollution Control - A Guide to the Use of Water Quality
Management Principles: A Case Study of the Pasig River
3. Language Learning Strategies of Students at Different Levels of
Speaking Proficiency
4. A Survey on the Filipino’s Acceptance of the K to 12 curriculum

7. The Correlational Research
Correlational research determines the relations among two or
more variables. Data are gathered from multiple variables and
correlational statistical techniques are then applied to the data.
Thus, correlational research is a bit more complicated than
descriptive research; after the important variable have been
identified, the relations among those variables are
investigated.

8. Correlation does not imply causation. Thus, correlational
research can only enable the researcher to make weak causal
inferences at best. Correlational research can be bivariate,
meaning two variables in which one variable is known as an
independent variable (or input variable) and the second variable
as a dependent variable (or outcome variable). Bivariate
correlations provide information about both the strength of
the relationship, from no correlation to perfectly correlated.

• A CORRELATIONAL STUDY ON PARENTAL ATTACHMENT
AND SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT OF COLLEGE STUDENTS
• CORRELATION STUDY: THE EFFECT OF STUDENT-TEACHER
RAPPORT ON HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT PERFORMANCE RATE
• Leadership Trust in Virtual Teams Using Communication Tools: A
Quantitative Correlational Study

10. The Experimental Method
In experimental research, the researcher manipulates one or more independent or
grouping variables, (e.g., by comparing treatment conditions, such as an intervention
group vs. a control group) and then observes the impact of that manipulation on
one or more dependent or outcome variables (e.g., student achievement or
motivation).
Experimental research includes (a) true experiments (in which individuals are
randomly assigned to conditions or groups, such as method of instruction or counseling)
and (b) quasi-experiments (in which individuals cannot be randomly assigned as they
are already in a condition or group, such as gender, socioeconomic status or classroom).

11. SAMPLE EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH
TITLES:
• “Effects of Cognitive Overweight Status and Food Motives on
Food Choice: Implications for Public Policy and Marketing”
• An Experimental Study on the Effectiveness of Multimedia in College
English Teaching
• The Development of An Interactive E-Module with The Self-Reinforcing
Character for Elementary School Students
• Contribution of Geographic Education in Growing Students’ Character of
Environment

12. The Historical Research
The historical method is employed by
researchers who are interested in reporting
events and/or conditions that occurred in the
past. This is for the purpose of establishing
facts in order to arrive at conclusions
concerning part events or predict future events.

13. SAMPLE HISTORICAL RESEARCH
TITLES:
•Young adult literature: From Romance to Realism
•Children's literature: A Reader’s History, from Aesop
to Harry Potter
• Historical Research in Social Work – Theory and Practice
• "The population wants to be completely free from the Spanish
yoke": a case of Sephardic Jewish anticolonial solidarity from the
Ottoman Empire during the wars of Philippine independence
(1896-1899)

14. The Market Research
Market research is any organized effort to gather
information about target markets or customers. Market
research provides important information to identify and
analyze customer satisfaction, the market need,
market size and competition. Market research, which
includes social and opinion research, is the
systematic gathering and interpretation of information
about individuals or organizations using statistical and
analytical methods and techniques.

15. Feasibility Study
A feasibility study is an analysis of the ability to
complete a project successfully, taking into account
legal, economic, technical, scheduling, marketing,
environmental and other factors. Rather than just diving
into a project and hoping for the best, a feasibility study
allows project managers to investigate the possible
negative and positive outcomes of a project before
investing too much time and money.
