Research Methods

Here are several types of research i am planning to use throughout my critical research.

Quantitavie Research - Usually based on numbers, statistics or tables, that attempts to 'measure' some kind of phenomenon and produce 'hard' data. It often involves working with large groups of people.

Qualitative Research - A type of research that attempts to explain or understand somthing and may necessitate much discussion and analysis of people's attitudes and behaviour. It usually involves working with small numbers of people or 'focus groups'.

Primary Research- First hand research; interviews, questionnaires, surveys.

Secondary Research- Second hand research, data found/created by someone else.
