Grade 9 Research Class | MS. JIMNAIRA ABANTO
4. Based on Application of Research
Method
It deals with concepts, principles,
or abstract things.
Basic Research or
Pure Research
Applied Research
it done for the purpose of
testing or applying an
existing principle or theory
with specific purpose of
improving human condition.
5. Based on Purpose of Research
aims at defining or giving a
verbal portrayal or picture of a
person, thing, event, group,
situation, etc.
Descriptive Research Correlational Research
shows relationship or
connectedness of two factors,
circumstances, or agents called
variables that affect the
research.
6. Based on Purpose of Research
elaborates or explains not just
the reasons behind the
relationship of two factors, but
also the ways by which such
relationship exists.
Explanatory Research Exploratory Research
is to find out how
reasonable or possible it is
to conduct a research study
on a certain topic.
7. Based on Purpose of Research
based on the concept that ‘action is both an
outcome and a part of research’ and also
focuses on solving local problems or immediate
problematic situation for the practical concerns
of the involved people.
Action Research
8. Based on Types Data Needed
Non-numerical data
Qualitative Quantitative
Numerical data
Uses words rather than
numbers to express results Measurement of data
(%, fractions, numbers)
Verbal language
9. Based on Types Data Needed
Qualitative Quantitative
1. Both have the process of inquiry and investigation.
2. Both improve life and help us in understanding various issues of life and
in giving solutions to our problems
3. Both start with a problem and end with a new problem.
4. Both use textual forms in analyzing and interpretation of data.
5. Both use inductive and deductive methods of presenting data.
10. direct observation or contact to
people, object, artifacts,
paintings, etc.
