Often, researchers need to use indicators because they cannot measure something directly-for example, using babies birthweight to indicate n
6、utritional status. Were the measures in this research clearly related to the variables in which the researchers (or you) were interested? If human subjects were studied, do they fairly represent the populations under study? Results What is the one major finding? Were enough of the data presented so

Discussion Do you agree with the conclusions drawn from the data? Are these conclusions over-generalized or
8、 appropriately careful? Are there other factors that could have influenced, or accounted for, the results? What further experiments would you think of, to continue the research or to answer remaining questions? FINDING DATA FOR YOUR MODEL International journals: You can find excellent, up-to-date te

Focus group study A focus group is a group of peo
15、ple who have been gathered together to give their opinions about an issue .A focus group study uses small discussion groups to determine public attitudes on a wide array of issues. While engaged in lively discussion, members reveal feelings, through verbal and non-verbal communication, that a simple
16、 questionnaire may be unable to capture. Focus groups are a great way to get input, feedback and dialogue with the participants of the study. Advantages: It is quick, cheap and relatively easy to assemble. Good for getting rich data in participants own words and developing deeper in sight. People ar
17、e able to build on others responses and come up with ideas they might not have thought of in a one on one interview. They are very cost effective in terms of gathering primary data and are very much time efficient. Limitations: Pretense, political correctness, and outright lying by group members can

Pilot Study A pilot, or feasibility study, is a small experiment designed to test logistics and gather information prior to a larger study, in order to improve the latters quality and
19、efficiency. A pilot study can reveal deficiencies in the design of a proposed experiment or procedure and these can then be addressed before time and resources are expended on large scale studies. A pilot study is normally small in comparison with the main experiment and therefore can provide only l
20、imited information on the sources and magnitude of variation of response measures. The pilot study may, however, provide vital information on the severity of proposed procedures or treatments. A pilot study may address a number of logistical issues to the main study: * Check that the instructions gi
21、ven to investigators are comprehensible; * Check that investigators and technicians are sufficiently skilled in the procedures; * Check the correct operation of equipment; * Check the reliability and validity of results * Detect a floor or ceiling effect * Assess whether the level of intervention is
22、 appropriate Literature review A literature review discusses published information in a particular subject area, and sometimes information in a particular subject area within a certain time period. The focus of a literature review is to summarize and synthesize the arguments and ideas of others with
23、out adding new contributions. In a research paper, you use the literature as a foundation and as support for a new insight that you contribute. Qualitative Data Analysis Qualitative methods are ways of collecting data which are concerned with describing meaning, rather than with drawing statistical
24、inferences. Qualitative Data Analysis (QDA) is the range of processes and procedures whereby we move from the qualitative data that have been collected into some form of explanation, understanding or interpretation of the people and situations we are investigating. The idea is to examine the meaning
25、ful and symbolic content of qualitative data. For example, by analysing interview data the researcher may be attempting to identify any or all of: Someones interpretation of the world, Why they have that point of view, How they came to that view, What they have been doing, How they conveyed their vi
