THREE RESEARCH METHODOLOGY Research Design Research methodology depicts the steps processed followed or undertaken by a researcher carrying out research work. Donald’s (2004) defined research methodology as the specification of procedure for collecting and analysing the problems at hand such that the difference between the cost of obtaining various level of accuracy and expected value of the information associated with each level of accuracy is maximized. The general overviews of the research will
Methodology is a chapter of dissertation that gives a full description of how the study was performed and analysis of data which was used to make a research. It is a theoretical analysis of the methods and principles used for particular research. The term "methodology" may also be used to refer to the study of various methods and not the methods themselves. Methodology is the way in which information is found or the way the research is done. Methodology includes the techniques, methods, and procedures
Methodology Introduction The research methodology described the geographical area of the study that studies the design and the population sample. Instruments used to collect the data, including instrumental used to maintain the validity and reliability of the described. Research approach and design A quantitative approach has been followed. (Burns and Grove: 1993) define quantitative research as a formal, objective, systematic process to describe and test relationships and examine cause and effect
Methodology This chapter confirms for the reader the choice of research methodology and methods used in this research. It considers the advantages and disadvantages of various research methods and discusses the validity of Action Research methods. Given the novelty of the approach (Water School) created and described by the researcher, is important to understand the rationale and the methodological basis for what is to follow in subsequent chapters of the thesis in order that the true value of the
chapter explains the different techniques that have been used while conducting this study. The research methodology defines what the activity of research is, how to proceed, how to measure progress, and what constitutes success. According to Fisher (2007) methodology is the study of a whole academic field. It is a stepping-back from a subject and a consideration of it at a broader and deeper level. Research design relates to the choice of strategy to gather data needed for a study to produce the wanted
CHAPTER 3 METHODOLOGY Description of Methodology This study shall be empirical as it conducts research into the effects of culture shock on foreign workers who are in Africa, specifically, Accra, Ghana. Phenomenological research method has been adopted for the study. According to Welman and Kruger (1999, p. 189, cited in sites.ualberta.ca) phenomenological research is focused on having knowledge about a social and psychological issue, studying it from the position of those who are the active partakers
