Fundamentals of Research Methodology for Healthcare Professionals presents the fundamental principles of research methodology and supports the vital role that research plays in the improvement of health science practices. The book provides novice and emerging researchers with the principles of philosophy of science as well as practical research methods. It is valuable for research capacity development and is also an accessible resource for more experienced researchers reviewing research principles.

This fifth edition of Fundamentals of Research Methodology for Healthcare Professionals has been updated to incorporate the latest trends in research methodology and evidence-based practice. The book details the steps involved in planning and undertaking a research project, from identifying and formulating the problem through to reporting findings. It underscores the importance of having a clear understanding of research methodology and terminology in order to read research reports with critical insight, implement evidence-based practice, and expand research. This edition is certain to stimulate awareness of the myriad researchable and research-requiring questions encountered daily in healthcare practice.

Research Methodology: Techniques and Trends focuses on both undergraduate and post graduate courses; and it helps readers understand the basic concepts and the application of results directly to real life business, industry and research organizations.

This is a textbook on research methodology for doctoral and post-doctoral programs; post graduate courses such as MSc, MBA, MCA, MS, etc., to name a few. Though the book is primarily addressed to students, it is equally useful to researchers and entrepreneurs as well.

A research method is a way of doing research. This can include focus groups, surveys, interviews, etc. A research method is the general approach a researcher takes in carrying out a research project (e.g. a particular quantitative or qualitative research design) (Practical Research Planning and Design. Glossary).

This database includes ebooks with research methods covering a variety of areas and disciplines. Review a small sample of available titles, see the box on this page: EBOOKS.

An institutional review board (IRB), also known as an 'independent ethics committee' ('IEC'), 'ethical review board' ('ERB'), or 'research ethics board' ('REB'), is a type of committee used in research in the United States that has been formally designated to approve, monitor, and review biomedical and behavioral research involving humans. The boards often conduct some form of risk-benefit analysis in an attempt to determine whether or not research should be completed using the proposed methods.

The purpose of the IRB is to assure that appropriate steps are taken to inform and to protect the rights and welfare of humans participating as subjects in a research study. Contact your GGU advisor for more information.

Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI Program) provides a large selection of fee-based courses, including: Human Subjects Research, Essentials of Statistical Analysis, and Information Privacy & Security.

This volume investigates the ways in which Q methodology can uncover and foreground new perspectives and contribute to language education and language policy research. It demonstrates the flexibility of this research methodology in addressing dynamic and complex language issues across a variety of educational topics and geographical contexts. The chapter authors use Q methodology to explore topics such as identity, motivation, cognition, emotion, pre-service and in-service teacher beliefs and to evaluate language programmes, curricula and policies. These contributions highlight Q methodology's potential to inform theoretical developments by revealing fresh perspectives on contemporary issues and generating new hypotheses. They foster further Q methodology research, demonstrating how it can contribute to a science of subjectivity and allow researchers to value the perspectives of all stakeholders for more inclusive research. This book will be of interest to graduate students and researchers in language education and language policy research and those in the broader field of social sciences looking to expand their knowledge of the methodology and how it can be used to study contemporary, dynamic and complex issues.

This inspiring, well-edited collection pulls off a hat-trick in language studies: authors marshal multifaceted scholarship, engage with the practical import of studying some of the pervasive complexities in language learning and teaching, and accurately convey the subtleties, richness and potential of Q methodology for researchers seeking deeper insights in their fields.

Nicola Fraschini is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Melbourne Asia Institute, Australia, where he teaches Korean language.

According to Dawson (2019), a research methodology is the primary principle that will guide your research. It becomes the general approach in conducting research on your topic and determines what research method you will use. A research methodology is different from a research method because research methods are the tools you use to gather your data (Dawson, 2019). You must consider several issues when it comes to selecting the most appropriate methodology for your topic. Issues might include research limitations and ethical dilemmas that might impact the quality of your research. Descriptions of each type of methodology are included below.

Quantitative research methodologies are meant to create numeric statistics by using survey research to gather data (Dawson, 2019). This approach tends to reach a larger amount of people in a shorter amount of time. According to Labaree (2020), there are three parts that make up a quantitative research methodology:

Qualitative research methodologies examine the behaviors, opinions, and experiences of individuals through methods of examination (Dawson, 2019). This type of approach typically requires less participants, but more time with each participant. It gives research subjects the opportunity to provide their own opinion on a certain topic.

A mixed methodology allows you to implement the strengths of both qualitative and quantitative research methods. In some cases, you may find that your research project would benefit from this. This approach is beneficial because it allows each methodology to counteract the weaknesses of the other (Dawson, 2019). You should consider this option carefully, as it can make your research complicated if not planned correctly.
