RESEARCH
APPROACHES
Research approaches are plans and the procedures
for research that span the steps from broad
assumptions to detailed methods of data collection,
analysis, and interpretation.

THREE COMPONENTS
INVOLVED IN AN
APPROACH
1. Philosophical Worldview

2. Research Design

3. Research Methods
 PHILOSOPHICAL WORLDVIEW

FOUR WORLDVIEWS
Post-postivism Constructivism
• Determination • Understanding
• Reductionism • Multiple participant meanings
• Empirical observation and • Social and historical construction
measurement • Theory Generation
• Theory verification
Transformative Pragmatism
• Political • Consequences of actions
• Power and justice oriented • Problem-centered
• Collaborative • Pluralistic
• Change-oriented • Real-world practice oriented
RESEARCH DESIGNS
The researcher not only selects a qualitative,
quantitative, or mixed methods study to conduct; the
inquirer also decides on a type of study within these
three choices.

CRITERIA FOR
SELECTING A
RESEARCH APPROACH
1. The Research Problem and Question

2. Personal Experience

3. Audience
 THE RESEARCH
PROBLEM AND
QUESTION
An issue or concern needs to be addressed with
questions.
 PERSONAL
EXPERIENCES
Researchers’ own personal training and experiences
also influence their choice of approach.
 AUDIENCE

Researchers write for audiences that will accept their

research. They can shape the decision made about the
choice of design.
