The research process document outlines the steps of conducting research. It begins with identifying a research problem or question. The researcher then develops a research proposal to get approval for the project. There are typically seven main steps to the research process, which includes conducting a literature review, choosing appropriate research methods like observation or experiments, then analyzing the results and drawing conclusions. Common research methods discussed are library research, statistical analysis, naturalistic observation, and laboratory experiments, each with advantages and disadvantages.

2.  It is a step by step process involves identifying,
locating, assessing, and analyzing the research
question, and then developing and expressing your
ideas in order to find answers and choosing the
tasks and ways in which they are carried out.

3.  The Research Process is a process of multiple
scientific steps in conducting the research work. Each
step is interlinked with other steps.
 The process starts with the research problem at first.
Then it advances in the next steps sequentially.
 Generally, a researcher conducts research work within
seven steps.
 In research work, primarily, you require a Research
Proposal. It is because the proposal approves the
research project whether you achieve the ability to
conduct research or not.
 So when you write a research proposal, present the
detailed plans and specific objectives of your research
correctly.

5. 1. Library Research: In this method we include
those methods which are concerned with the
collection of data.These methods will be
used where the data already available are not
sufficient to arrive at the required solution.

6. ADVANTAGES
 Good source of hypotheses
 Provides in-depth
information done on
individuals
 Sheds light on problems
tha are unethical or
impractical to study in
other ways
DISADVANTAGES
 Individual may not be
representative
 Difficult to know which
subjective interpretation is
best

7.  This method consists of those statistical
techniques which are used for establishing
relationships between the data and the
unknowns.

8. ADVANTAGES
 Allows description of
behavior as it occurs in the
natural environment
 Often useful in first stages
of research program
DISADVANTAGES
 Allows research little or no
control of the situation
 Observations may be
biased
 Does not allow firm
conclusions on cause and
effect

9.  This research consists of those methods
which are used to evaluate the accuracy of
the results obtained.
 Small group study of random behavior, play
and role analysis.

10. ADVANTAGES
 Allows more control than
naturalistic observation
 Allows use of sophisticated
equipment
 Allows researcher to
manipulate a situation
DISADVANTAGES
 Allows researcher only
limited control of the
situation
 Observations may be
biased
 Does not allow firm
conclusions on cause and
effect
 Behavior in the laboratory
may differ from behavior in
the natural environment
