Research methodology is mainly referring to the practical how of any offered piece of research. More specifically, it’s all about how a researcher systematically designs a study in order to assure extremely valid as well as reliable results that ultimately address the targets and objectives of the research.

In any formal research including academic journal, article, dissertation and so on, there will be a special section on a research methodology that mainly describes what, by whom, how to gather as well as how to evaluate the data are provided.

This research methodology has been segmented into following types:

Primary Research:

It is said to be original information that the researchers collect for the crucial purposes of answering the research questions of readers with the help of surveys, observations and experiments.

Secondary Research:

The secondary research is the data that has already been collected by various other researchers in the form of government analysis or scientific studies.

Qualitative Research:

It is descriptive and subjective method irrespective of facts. Both observation and description are essential in this type of research methodology. Its main vision is to analyze knowledge, attitudes, behaviours as well as opinions of people related to the topic of any research. This method has been operated through grounded research, case study and actionable research.

Quantitative Research:

It contains several laboratory experiments, basic surveys, mathematical calculations, simulations and so on. The possible measurement, quantity or amount is considered to be a major factor in the quantitative research methodology.
