A research design is the arrangement of conditions for collection and analysis of data in a manner that aims to combine relevance to the research with economy in procedure.
It is a conceptual structure within which research is conducted; it constitutes the blueprint for the collection, measurement and analysis of data.
A Research Design is a procedural plan that is adopted by the researcher to answer questions validly, objectively, accurately and economically.
Research Design is considered as a “blueprint” for research, dealing with at least four problems: (According to Philiber, Schwab, & Samsloss, 1980) 1) Which questions to be studied, 2) Which data are relevant, 3) What data to collect, and 4) How to analysis the result.

Motivation in research - Research Methodology - Manu Melwin Joymanumelwin
What makes people to undertake research? This is a question of fundamental importance. The possible motives for doing research may be either one or more of the following:
Desire to get a research degree along with its consequential benefits.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

3. Definition and nature of research
To study or to search about a phenomenon
Research = Re + search
Re = Repeatedly or again and again
search = to investigate or find
To search again and again is a research
Generally , research is an effort to search new fact,
knowledge, principle in scientific ways.
It is essentially a systematic inquiry seeking facts through
objectives verifiable methods in order to discover the
relationship among them and to deduce from them broad
principles or laws.
14 September 2014 shiva shrestha, HSM, Hetauda 3
4. Contd………
Really it is a method of critical thinking by defining
and redefining problems, formulating hypothesis or
suggested solution, collecting, organizing and
evaluating data, making deductions and making
conclusions to determine whether they fit the
formulated hypothesis.
It refers to a critical, careful and exhaustive
investigation or inquiry or examination or
experimentation having as its aim the revision of
accepted conclusions, in the light of newly discovered
facts.
14 September 2014 shiva shrestha, HSM, Hetauda 4
5. Contd……
Some definitions:
Advanced Learner’s Dictionary of current English
Defines “ Research is a careful investigation or
inquiry specially through search for new facts in
any branch of knowledge.”
According to John W. Best(1992) “Research is a
systematic and objective analysis and recording
of observations that may lead to the development
of a theory.”
Uma Sekaran(2007) “ Research is an organized,
systematic, data-based, critical, scientific enquiry
or investigation into a specific problem,
undertaken with the objective of finding answers
or solutions to it.”
14 September 2014 shiva shrestha, HSM, Hetauda 5
6. Thus the Research …
is the directed towards the solution of the problem.
is based upon observable experience or empirical evidence.
demands accurate observation and descriptions.
involves gathering new data from primary or first hand
sources or using existing data for a new purpose.
requires expertise and courage necessary to carry out
investigation, search the related literature and to understand
and analyze the data gathered.
involves the quest for answers to unsolved problems.
To sum up, Research is the process of a systematic and
in-depth study or search of any particular topic, subject
or area of investigation backed by the collection,
compilation, presentation and interpretation of
relevant datails or data.

10. Distinction Between Theoretical and
Applied Research
Theoretical Research[Pure or Basic] Applied Research[ Decisional]
1. It aims to contribute the theory and
techniques of the discipline.
1. It aims to solve or improve the problem.
2. It studies any problem usually from the
focus of one discipline.
2. It studies problems with important social
consequences in several disciplines.
3. It requires mainly technical judgement. 3. It requires also a sense of what the
situation and personalities can bear.
4. It restricts to research. 4. It is often useful in action or
administration, not only in research.
5. It seeks generalizations. 5. It studies individual cases without the
objectives to generalize.
6. It accepts the hypothesis that variables
not measured remain constant.
6. It recognizes that other variables are
constantly changing.
7. It attempts to get all the facts. 7. It attempts only to correct facts.
14 September 2014 shiva shrestha, HSM, Hetauda 10
11. Distinction Between Quantitative and Qualitative Research Methods
Qualitative Research Quantitative Research
Methods include focus groups, in-depth interviews,
and reviews of documents for types of themes
Surveys, structured interviews & observations, and reviews of
records or documents for numeric information
Primarily inductive process used to formulate
theory or hypotheses
Primarily deductive process used to test pre-specified concepts,
constructs, and hypotheses that make up a theory
More subjective: describes a problem or condition
from the point of view of those experiencing it
More objective: provides observed effects (interpreted by
researchers) of a program on a problem or condition
Text-based Number-based
More in-depth information on a few cases Less in-depth but more breadth of information across a large number
of cases
Unstructured or semi-structured response options Fixed response options
No statistical tests Statistical tests are used for analysis
Can be valid and reliable: largely depends on skill
and rigor of the researcher
Can be valid and reliable: largely depends on the measurement
device or instrument used
Time expenditure lighter on the planning end and
heavier during the analysis phase
Time expenditure heavier on the planning phase and lighter on the
analysis phase
Less generalizable More generalizable
14 September 2014 shiva shrestha, HSM, Hetauda 11
12. Scientific Research
systematic and objective attempt to provide answers to
certain questions
To discover and develop an organized body of knowledge
According to Kerlinger “ Scientific research is
systematic, controlled, empirical and critical
investigation of hypothetical propositions about the
presumed relations among nature phenomena.”
It is used to develop theories, concepts, generalizations
and principles according to cause-effect relationship.
Scientific research is a procedure, a general strategy that
indicates an ordered sequence of moves(steps) which the
researcher has to make in order to reach the goal of his or
her research.

Requires skill of writing and reproducing the report as define
complex terminology, use of simple terms, formulation of
clear-cut design and procedure in objective manner.

Aims at adding to knowledge of human beings about the
problems which face the society.
related to human or social behavior
scientific analysis of the nature and trends of social
phenomena of groups
According to Mrs. P. V. Young “ Social research is the
systematic method of discovering the new facts or
verifying the old facts, their sequences, inter-relationship,
casual explanations and the natural
laws which govern them.”
According to Claus Moser “ systematized investigation
to gain new knowledge about social phenomena and
social problems we call social research.”

20. Concept of Management Research
Uma Sekaran(2007): “ Business research is a
systematic and organized investigation
conducted to resolve problematic issues in, or
interrelated among, the different areas of
management.”
William Zikmund(2007): “ Management research is
the systematic and objective process of gathering,
recording and analyzing data for aid in making
business decisions.”
Donald Cooper and Pamela Schindler(2008):
“ Business research is a systematic inquiry whose
objective is to provide information to solve managerial
problems.”
14 September 2014 shiva shrestha, HSM, Hetauda 20
21. In view of the informational needs of managers,
types of management research are…
Policy Research
Managerial Research
Action Research
Evaluation Research
Policy Research: It is defined as the development of
a foundation of information to be used as a basis for
making plans and decisions that will impact policy.
Specially, it is related to the strategic analysis and
planning activities of an organization.
14 September 2014 shiva shrestha, HSM, Hetauda 21
22. Policy Research is composed of three basic elements:
It studies how policy formulation occurs with a view
to understanding and improving the process.
It is designed to analyzed situations at the strategic
level and to formulate overall policy proposals.
It is systematically evaluates the priorities to be
accorded to conflicting and complementary policy
alternatives.
Managerial Research: It is related to the specific
problem of limited scope for which management has
the need of additional information on which to base a
decision. It is focused on one particular activity,
scheme or project launched by a management for the
on-going projects.
14 September 2014 shiva shrestha, HSM, Hetauda 22
23. Action Research: A task oriented form of the study
designed to provide continuous feedback regarding
the performance of management activity and to
improve that performance. It is a methodology which
combines “action” and “research” together.
Basic Features of Action Research:
Addresses practical problems
Generates new knowledge
Enacts change
Is participatory
Relies on a cyclical process
Evaluation Research: It is the process of determining
the value or worth of something. It has two types:
a. Formative Evaluation b. Summative Evaluation
