This document discusses different types of research methods including survey research, laboratory research, field investigation research, causal research, technological research, policy research, conclusive research, and clinical research. Survey research involves collecting information through questionnaires or interviews from a sample. Laboratory research uses controlled experiments. Field investigation observes people in natural environments. Causal research determines cause-and-effect relationships between variables. Technological research applies other methods to business. Policy research has policy implications. Conclusive research uses quantitative methods to reach conclusions. Clinical research uses case studies and in-depth approaches.

It is the collection of information from a sample
of individuals through their responses to question
We can done a survey research through the
method of Personal interviews, mailed questionnaires, personal discussion and indirect oral investigations LABORATORY RESEARCH Laboratory research is based on experiments conducted in a laboratory
. They are useful in social sciences also , but with
limited applications .
problem in this type of research is to set up a
social research laboratory and to create environmental conditions. FIELD INVESTIGATION RESEARCH
It is a qualitative method of data collection that
aim to observe , interact and understand people while they are in a natural environment
This research is ideal to testing the theory and
the solution of the real worlds problems. CAUSAL RESEARCH It is a research method that is used to determine the cause and effect relationship between two variables.
This research is used mainly to identify the cause
of the given behavior.
Experimental and quasi experimental studies
are usually applied to explore cause and effect relationship TECHNOLOGICAL RESEARCH
The Technological Research describes how
technology develops and improves..
Technological research consists largely of the
application of the previously listed kinds of research to the immediate of business or industry POLICY RESEARCH
It is basically a research with policy implications
Research conducted for the specific purpose of
application may be treated as policy research CONCLUSIVE RESEARCH
It involves the application of quantitative
methods of data collection and data analysis.
It is used to obtain information that can be used
to reach conclusions or make decisions
Descriptive research and Causal research are
conclusive research CLINICAL RESEARCH
Clinical research are the research which follow
case-study methods or in-depth approaches to reach the basic causal relations OTHER TYPES OF RESERCH Research can be conclusion oriented or decision oriented
In conclusion oriented research , researchers are
free to pick up problem
In decision oriented research, researchers are not
free to embark upon research according to their own inclination
Operation research is the example for decision
oriented research From point of view of time we can think research as ;
