This document outlines the key components of a research design, including the purpose of the study, types of investigations, extent of researcher interference, study setting, unit of analysis, and time horizon. The research design provides an overall framework and blueprint to guide the investigation and identify information relevant to addressing the research problem. The purpose can be exploratory to discover ideas, descriptive to characterize variables, or testing hypotheses about causal relationships. Studies also differ in the level of researcher interference, whether settings are natural or contrived, the unit of analysis (e.g. individual or group), and whether they use a cross-sectional or longitudinal time horizon.

Research is a systematic inquiry to describe, explain, predict and control the observed phenomenon. Research involves inductive and deductive methods (Babbie, 1998). Inductive methods analyze the observed phenomenon and identify the general principles, structures, or processes underlying the phenomenon observed; deductive methods verify the hypothesized principles through observations. The purposes are different: one is to develop explanations, and the other is to test the validity of the explanations.

The need for good research is to find the best evidence for clinical
practice, for specific problems, and to address methods in reducing the
burden of illness on a larger scale.
It should reflect the aspirations and expectations of the research topic.
The PowerPoint presentation notes provided cover the fundamental aspects of research, its nature, characteristics, purpose, and various research methods. The presentation begins by defining research as a scientific and systematic search for pertinent information on a specific topic. It emphasizes the careful investigation and inquiry required to expand knowledge and move from the known to the unknown.
The nature of research is discussed, highlighting its relevance to academics, policy makers, and practitioners, and the need for a trans-disciplinary approach. The notes also stress the contextual nature of research, making it difficult to replicate, and emphasize the importance of disseminating and exploiting research findings.
The characteristics of research are outlined, including the need for a clear question or problem, articulation of goals, specific plans of procedure, and the division of complex problems into manageable sub-problems. It is highlighted that research is guided by research problems, questions, or hypotheses and relies on critical assumptions. Collection and interpretation of data are crucial for resolving the research problem.
The purpose of research is explored, emphasizing its goal of adding to existing knowledge through scientific methods. The four primary purposes of research, namely exploration, description, causal explanation, and prediction, are explained. Exploration refers to the examination of previously unexplored phenomena, while description involves gathering data-based information. Causal explanation aims to establish cause-and-effect relationships, and prediction seeks to anticipate future events based on plausible explanations.
The presentation also introduces quantitative and qualitative research methods. Quantitative methods, including inferential, experimental, simulation, and descriptive approaches, are discussed, highlighting their ability to examine cause and effect, describe characteristics, and explore relationships between variables. Qualitative methods, such as phenomenological, ethnographic, and grounded theory approaches, are mentioned, emphasizing their focus on understanding lived experiences, cultural aspects, and theory development.
Overall, the presentation notes provide a comprehensive overview of research, covering its definition, nature, characteristics, purpose, and different methods employed.
The systematic investigation into and study of materials, sources, etc, in order to establish facts and reach new conclusions. Research is what we do when we have a question or a problem we want to resolve. Research is a systematic inquiry to describe, explain, predict and control the observed phenomenon. The first module highlights an overview of all concepts adopted in Research.

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

5. 1-PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
A method of solving problems, or for understanding
phenomena of interest and generating further
knowledge in that area. The nature of study whether it
is
Exploratory
Descriptive
Hypothesis Testing
Depend on the stage on which knowledge about the
research level.
6. EXPLORATORY STUDY
Exploratory Research is research conducted for a
problem that has not been clearly defined.
Main objective: Major emphasis is on discovery of
ideas & insights.
Interviews with many people to understand the
phenomena.
Qualitative studies are exploratory.
The objective is general rather than specific.
Save time and other resources
7. DESCRIPTIVE STUDY
A descriptive study is undertaken to determine and
able to describe the characteristics of the variables of
interest in a situation.
Main objective: Major emphasis is on discovery of
ideas & insights.
Quantitative study are descriptive.
Research has specific objective.
Findings are definite.
Comparing Groups and Issues
8. HYPOTHESES TESTING
Explain the nature of certain relationships, or
establish the differences among groups or the
independence of two or more factors in a situation.
Main objective: Researchers test the hypotheses of
causal relationships between variables.
Control the influence of one variable on other
dependent variable.
9. 2-TYPE OF INVESTIGATION
A manager should determine whether a casual or a
correlational study is needed to find an answer to the
issue.
Causal Study
Correlational study
10. CAUSAL STUDY
A causal study is an inquiry to understand the cause
of one or more problems. Causation, also known as
cause and effect, is when an observed event or
action appears to have caused a second event or
action.
11. CORRELATIONAL STUDY
A Correlational study an inquiry to find out the key
variables linked to the problem. It is the relationship
between two sets of variables used to describe or
predict information.
12. EXTENT OF RESEARCHER INTERFERENCE
The extent of interference by the researcher with the
normal flow of work at the workplace has a direct
bearing on whether the study undertaken is causal or
correlational. A correlational study is conducted in the
natural environment of the organization with minimum
interference by the researcher with the normal flow of
work.
13. STUDY SETTING
Non-contrived settings: If organizational research
be done in the natural environment where work
proceeds normally, the research is in non-contrived
settings.
Contrived settings: If organizational research be
done in artificial environment the research is in
contrived settings.
14. UNIT OF ANALYSIS
The unit of analysis is the major entity that is
being analyzed in a study. The unit of analysis
means the degree of aggregation of the data
gathered through the subsequent data analysis.
Unit of analysis is the “who” or the “what” that you
are analyzing for your study.
Individual
Dyads
Groups
Departmental
Organizational
15. TIME HORIZON
Cross-sectional studies or One-shot
A study can be carried out in which data are collected
only once, perhaps during a period of days or weeks or
months, to be able to answer a research question
known as cross-sectional studies.
Longitudinal Studies or Multi-shot
If the researcher might want to study people or
phenomena at more than one point in time in order to
answer the research question or when data on the
dependent variable are gathered at two or more points
in time to answer the research question, the studies are
called longitudinal studies.
Editor's Notes
Decisions have to be made as the type of sample to be used, how the data will b collected, how variables will be measured and how they will be analyzed to test the hypothesis. Research design minimizes bias and maximizes the reliability of the data collected and analyzed.
The extent of research study depends on how carefully the researcher chooses the appropriate design alternatives, taking into consideration its specific purpose.
For Example , if critical financial decision to invest millions of dollars in a project is to be based on the research investigation and careful attention to detail is necessary to ensure that it has acceptable level of confidence. This implies that close attention is paid to sampling, measurement, data collection and analyzing.
The choice of appropriate design largely depends on the objectives of the research and how much is known about the problem and its objectives.
For Example interviewed a manager to explore the nature of managerial work, Based on the analysis of his interview data, theories of managerial roles, the nature and types of managerial activities.
A service provider wants to know why his customers are switching to other service providers.
For Example a study of a class in terms of percentage of member who are in their senior and junior years, age grouping, number of semester left, and number of business courses taken, can be considered as descriptive study.
A bank manager wants to have a profile of the individuals who have loan payments outstanding for 6 months and more. It would include details of their average age, earnings, nature of occupation, full-time/part-time employment status, and the like.
For Example a marketing manager wants to know if the sales of the company will increase if he doubles the advertising dollars.
A causal study question:
Does cigarette smoking cause cancer?
A correlational study question:
Are cigarette smoking and cancer associated?
Or Are cigarette smoking, consuming alcohol, and chewing tobacco related to cancer?
For Example Data collected from stock brokers between April and June of last year to study their concerns in stock market.
For Example one could study the sales volume of a product before and after an advertisement.
