PHASES OF RESEARCH PROCESS

 

PHASES OF RESEARCH PROCESS:

In order for us to obtain useful information, collecting data is  the most appropriate ways to gather much information. Process much be longer but good outcome may come first. Digging from the deep meaning and organizing it according to its properties, information may be seem understood in all sides. A reader of a research is just like a reseaecher who find ways for another meaning of words or things that is not familier with. Understanding the meaning of research ,assists both the reader and researcher towards their goal.

Phases of Research process;

 The conceptual phase- 

According Brink at al. (2006) this phase of research involves activities with a strong conceptual element.  It refers to the process of developing refining abstract ideas. During this phase, the researcher categorises and labels his/her impressions. 

ACTIVITIES INCLUDE:

•  Thinking
• Rethinking, 
• Theorising, 
• Decision making 
• reviewing ideas 

 The researcher also needs to draw on the skills and abilities of creativity, analysis and insight, as well as on the firm grounding of existing research on the topic of interest“. 

 DESIGN AND PLANNING PHASE:

According to whittemore & Melkus 2008, by completing this phase, reseaechers can pose highly specific and measurable reseaech questions. In this phase, reseaechers select their reseaech design and determine their sampling and data collection. Reseaech design increase the essential of reliability as well as validity with accordance of the meaningful data that is collected.

THE EMPHIRICAL AND ANALYTIC PHASES:

At this phase the process denotes the data that has been  collected and prepared for the data analysis. It involves the data interpretation and identifying correlations and answers to the reseach purpose. ( whittemore & Melkus ,2008) . By this time , all question that the researcher presented  must be confim that is not difinitive at all times.

DISSEMINATION PHASE: 

Smyers(2001) stated that, There is time and time again the general suspicious that what is offered by social science reseaech cannot adequately satisfy the demands of knowleged "(p. 478). This must play a big role since some of the reader must must the most  answer that is satisfying . dissemination of information must be creative if the reseaecher wants to capture the audience , not just creative but also reliable and can be prove that by the evidence presented.
