10 Research topics

and it’s
Appropriate
Research Design
 A study on an office workers in their 20’s
-Suppose a group of 300 people volunteer for a study involving office workers in their
twenties. There are 300 participants are randomly distributed into three groups.

First Group: A control group that does

not participate in execising.
Second Group: Asked to indulge in
home workouts for 30-45 muinutes
everyday for one month.
TRUE EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH DESIGN
• Control Group
• Independent Variable
• Random Assignment

Third Group: Has to work out 2 hours

everyday for a month.
 A study of students that have/have not gadgets

-A researcher have 50 volunteers for a study on students that have gadgets or not and those 50
students are randomly distributed in two groups.

Group 1: has no gadgets at all, and TRUE EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH

most of them behaves
• Control group
• Experimental group
Group 2: has gadgets, and active in
mobile gaming and social media
 The effects of junk foods in obese people
-Interviewing with the participants shows that while some of them are keen
to see the "junk food benefit," others aren't as they follow a strict diet.

We make a questionaire from the

participants on its choices, QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH
Suppose to be 9 out Since we make a questionaire from the participants on
of 10 people its choices, Yes or NO:
answered YES, and -it has a pre-test or a post-test
Suppose to be 1 -dosen’t have a random assignment meaning NOT
VOLUNTARY.
out of 10 people
answered NO
 Study of senior high school students have high and low scores of statistics
-We make the students test their knowledge from the subject of statistics whether has a high score
of 11 below and a low score of 10 under.

Since this is a pretest, thus we use

percentage from students:
QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH
- it has a pre-test or a post-test
- Does not use random assignment

70% of the students have high scores

20% of the students have low scores

 A study on a costumer satisfaction
A researcher can understand that there is satisfaction of a costumer with teir recent
purchases
By asking them to rate their
satisfaction, they use a Likert Scale
ranging from 1 (very unsatisfied) to
7 (super satisfied)
DERSCRIPTIVE RESEARCH
- describes a population, situation, or phenomenon that
is being studied.
- -it happens to be an observational descriptive method

TIP:
It can answer what, where, when and
how questions, but not why questions.
 A study on malnourished senior high school students

-A researcher comes to a section of senior high school students full of

malnourished people and fail for their weights.

-they asked the malnourished students

DERSCRIPTIVE RESEARCH
how did they fail for their weights.
-Sampling from a population
-Collecting data through questions or interviews

TIP:
They use the survey method in applying the descriptive
method.
 Study on the food served during lunch

-The Junior High School students are going to a canteen to buy served food to the cook.

-they asked on how is the food served

during lunchtime in schools; DERSCRIPTIVE RESEARCH

 By processing -It uses a survey

 Buying ingredients -Collecting data through
 Cooking manually and carefully questions or interviews

TIP:
They use uncontrolled variables in anyway attended. These are the ones at the
characteristics on a DERSCRIPTIVE RESEARCH
 The Relationship Between the amount of physical activity done
and the student academic acheivement.

-The relationship between amount of

prizes and it’s satisfaction to the CORRELATIONAL RESEARCH
participants • No intervention
• Not malipulated
• Used data collected by
observation
• Not considered a cause-
-the relationship between age limit and it’s effect situation
leadership style • Identifies relationship
through variables
 Sex and Mathematical Ability

-In particular, males consistently

outperform females in the solving
of mathematical geometry
CORRELATIONAL RESEARCH
-Used data collected by
observation not considered a
cause-effect situation
 Age and Leader Style

-In terms of their self-rated

leadership behaviors, leadership-
related competences, and results of CORRELATIONAL RESEARCH
their leadership. -No intervention
-Identifies relationship through variables
Any Question,
Clarification
Or maybe did you copy it
in a notebook?
