 Any research design sets up the framework for adequate
tests of the relations among variables.
 It is from a design, the researcher can infer what
observations need to be made upon the variables, how to
make them, and how to analyze the quantitative data
gathered about the variables and observations, how to
interpret the findings, and what conclusions to draw.
Purpose
 The purpose is to provide maximum amount of
information relevant to the problem under
investigation
 The basic purpose of research design is to
 Maximize experimental variance
 Control extraneous variance
 Minimize error variance, and therefore
 Provide unambiguous results and avoid
confounding
FUNCTION
 A good research design will answer research
questions as objectively, validly, accurately,
and economically as possible.
 It will suggests the researcher the manner in
which to collect data, control variables,
manner of manipulation, use of right
statistical analysis based on the context of the
study.
 Controls,v0riables: a good design also acts as
