Description

The goal of descriptive research is to provide precise, accurate information or clear, well-supported responses to a topic. Descriptive research typically employs surveys. The systematic empirical exploration of quantitative properties, phenomena, and their interactions is referred to as quantitative research in the social sciences. The development and application of mathematical models, theories, and/or hypotheses relevant to phenomena is the goal of quantitative research. Because it establishes the essential link between empirical observation and the mathematical articulation of quantitative connections, the measuring process is crucial to quantitative research. Although the hypothesis has operationally specified variables and is testable, it is directly tied to a theory. Through study, hypotheses enable us to ascertain whether our hypothesis is accurate. Whenever we conduct study, we usually seek out some sort of distinction or modification between two or more groups. We are comparing the effects of having work experience against not having it on college grades in our study. The book is intended to be used as both a compilation of readings and as a standalone introduction to research methodologies.
