Research Methodology

Before beginning any research project, you must decide which methodology to use. This will guide your study, help you to choose a way to collect data and aid in your analysis. Researchers use three primary methodology types: qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods. Within these broad categories, more specific methods include an array of options, such as case studies, self-reporting and surveys.

Qualitative Research
Qualitative research seeks to explore a specific phenomena, not prove a prediction, according to "Qualitative Research Methods: A Data Collector's Field Guide," published by Family Health International. Often used in the social sciences and education, qualitative methodologies use interviews, focus groups and observations to collect data. Qualitative methods provide rich, contextual explorations of the topic that are often personally or culturally meaningful.

Quantitative Methods
Quantitative research is is more objective than qualitative methods. In this type of methodology, the researcher crafts a hypothesis and then tests it through structured means. Instead of exploring or describing a phenomena, quantitative methods deal with facts and statistics. This type of research is often used in science or medicine.

Mixed Methods
Mixed methods combine qualitative and quantitative research. This type of methodology uses several different measures that include both contextual understanding like interviews or observations along with facts or statistics. Using mixed methods can help the researcher investigate a topic on multiple levels, gaining different views and a comprehensive look at the subject. A mixed methodology meshes more than one philosophical perspective, allowing for the integration of different theories and ideas.

Methodologies and Design
Within each major methodology are various designs. These provide a framework or philosophy for the study, and are different than the actual methods used. For example, a case study design focuses on exploring and describing a specific instance, person or group. A researcher may use observations, interviews or self-reports from the subject to create a complete picture. This picture, or case, provides a detailed example of a phenomenon that can then be generalized to a similar population.

One Day Workshop on Research Tools: Supporting Research and Publication

[PERSIAPAN AWAL]

Adakah anda tahu, sebelum anda memulakan langkah anda sebagai pelajar Postgraduate, rupa-rupanya ada teknik yang boleh membantu untuk memilih Supervisor (SV) yang tepat, di mana kita boleh 'check' latar belakang SV contohnya sudah berapa jurnal yang diterbitkan oleh seseorang SV itu, link atau 'networking' sesorang SV dengan universiti lain di dalam dan luar negara, conference yang pernah disertainya dan sebagainya.
Tunggu...

Banyak lagi teknik-teknik lain lagi yang anda perlu tahu sebelum anda memulakan langkah di dalam dunia kajian.

Ketahui teknik dan method yang sesuai untuk mencari sumber seperti jurnal, artikel atau bahan sebelum memulakan kajian anda.


Sebagai persediaan awal sebelum meneruskan dengan ‘Research Proposal’ anda supaya anda boleh mendapat gambaran awal dalam memilih method yang paling sesuai untuk digunakan.
Dapat idea menyeluruh di mana hendak memulakan kajian anda.

Cara untuk mencari topik/tajuk kajian dengan menggunakan kata kunci yang sesuai digunakan untuk mencari bahan-bahan yang membantu kajian anda.

Bagi tajuk-tajuk tertentu, kata kunci memainkan perananan kerana kata kunci yang tepat membolehkan research itu sendiri mudah dijumpai oleh orang lain. Dengan itu, tidaklah kajian yang diusahakan itu menjadi tidak sia-sia.

Ketahui bagaimana meningkat ‘citation’ daripada researcher lain.

Ketahui bagaimana dapat mengelakkan ‘plagiarism’ menggunakan cara tertentu, memastikan ‘paraphrasing’ yang dibuat itu masih belum dikategorikan sebagai plagiat.
Beberapa tips terbaik daripada penceramah.

Apa itu SMART PLS?

SMART PLS banyak digunakan untuk menganalisis SEM berbasis komponen. Merupakan teknik alternatif dari SEM berbasis variance seperti AMOS dan LISREL. Software ini dikembangkan oleh institute of Hamburg Jerman dan dapat didownload gratis (tapi harus register terlebih dahulu) SmartPLS adalah aplikasi perangkat lunak untuk (grafis) pemodelan jalur dengan variabel laten (LVP). The partial least squares (PLS)-method (PLS) yang digunakan untuk analisis LVP-in software ini.

Smart PLS menggunakan bahasa JAVA, jadi sebelum menggunakan SmartPLS ada baiknya diinstall terlebih dahulu Java Runtime Environment (JRE) yang juga dapat didownload gratis di situs Sun Microsystem.
 
» Ciri Algoritma PLS-SEM
° Memaksimakan penerangan terhadap nilai R2
° Memproses data dengan cepat walaupun model kompleks.
° Penganggaran secara linear semua indicator.
° Diguna untuk tujuan peramalan (predictive)
° Hasil boleh diguna untuk analisis selanjutnya
° Tidak terkesan walaupun data tidak cukup.
° Tidak memerlukan penilaian ketepatan padanan model (Goodness-of-Fit)
° Penilaian kesahan dan kebolehpercayaan model reflektif berasaskan pelbagai kriteria.
° Penilaian kesahan, signifikan dan relevan bagi pemberat indicator dan kolineariti indicator
° Penilaian Model Struktural berdasarkan kolineariti antara konstruk, Pekali Laluan yang signifikan, Pekali Penentuan (R2), saiz kesan (f2), Kerelevanan prediktif (Q2 dan q2 effect size)
 
» Ciri Data
° Teknik Analisis Generasi Kedua - amat sesuai untuk Analisis Penerokaan (Exploratory Analysis).
° Diguna untuk membangunkan teori dalam Kajian Penerokaan.
° Dapat menerangkan varians pada pemboleh ubah bersandar semasa menganalisis model kajian.
° Tiada masalah data identifikasi walaupun menggunakan sampel bersaiz kecil.
° ‘Statistical Power’ boleh dicapai dengan mudah menggunakan saiz sampel kecil.
° Saiz sampel yang besar meningkatkan ketepatan model penganggaran.
° Tiada andaian Data Normal di perlukan kerana PLS-SEM adalan kaedah non-parametrik
° Integriti data tidak tergugat selagi mana missing value dalam tahap diterima.
° Boleh mengendalikan data interval, ratio, ordinal, nominal (ada limitasi).

» Ciri Model
° Boleh kendali konstruk dengan satu item atau banyak item dalam satu model.
° Mudah gabungkan konstruk reflektif dan formatif bersama dalam satu model.
° Boleh kendali model kompleks yang mempunyai banyak model struktural.
° Semakin banyak item dalam konstruk, dapat mengurangkan bias.
° Mengendalikan model rekursif sahaja (causal loop tidak dibenarkan)

» Kelebihan SmartPLS
° Mudah dikendalikan dan dianalisis.
° Memperkenalkan Smart PLS sebagai salah satu aplikasi yang boleh digunakan untuk menjana hasil penyelidikan
° Menghasilkan model yang kemas dan menarik.
° Mempunyai literature dan jaringan kumpulan sokongan seluruh dunia.

MAIN STRENGTH AT A GLANCE Part 3

Leader of The Pack

ATLAS.ti's multimedia capabilities are and have always been second to none (remember that ATLAS.ti introduced multimedia analysis features as early 1996!)

Create quotations directly from audio and video files, work with or without transcriptions. Link audio to text and videos to photos. Treat videos clips as you would text files, draw connections between any kind of data and content.
ATLAS.ti is not just a text analysis tool, it is truly an entire "text audio video image & more analysis" workbench.


Only ATLAS.ti lets you work just as you need to:

•    create quotations in any type of audio / video / image file just like in textual documents
•    annotate multimedia quotations
•    hyperlink between multimedia quotations and text files (and vice versa, of course...)
•    assign multimedia files like textual files as standalone documents

MAIN STRENGTH AT A GLANCE Part 2

Great Usability
From its first release over a decade and a half ago, ATLAS.ti has been hailed by users for the way it has been designed with their concrete needs and the way they work in mind. Here are a few highlights:
 
Interface
Any combination of functions can be open together, which allows equally for extremely comfortable and efficient work. A major independent study specifically praised ATLAS.ti for its "slick interactivity between different objects and tasks" which contributes to the high degree of "fluidity with which you can flick between views and functions." (Lewins/Silver, p.) Unlike other programs, ATLAS.ti employs line wrapping of text when
the window size is reduced.


Interactive Margin
ATLAS.ti introduced the classic margin view as early as 1996.

It is ATLAS.ti's perhaps most central work view, and it facilitates work by providing an extremely intuitive environment that emulates a traditional paper-and-pencil feel. Your codes are conveniently in view at all times, even appearing simultaneously as you code.

Its ability to let you choose between viewing codes, memos or hyperlinks, or combinations of them is unique to ATLAS.ti and makes it the most intuitive and most flexible QDA tool out there.

Navigation, Units of Context
ATLAS.ti displays the widest variety of units of context while at the same giving you the most precise text segments at the lower levels (word, sentence, paragraph). Clear and concise points of reference (such as line and paragraph numbers) always make moving around--even large documents--easy.

MAIN STRENGTH AT A GLANCE Part 1

What qualifies ATLAS.ti as one of the most powerful QDA solutions anywhere? Many things, we think. Please read why we do what we do, and what we do to keep ATLAS.ti on top of the game.

(1) Superior Functionality

ATLAS.ti offers numerous functionalities that are either completely unique or clearly stand out from the rest of all QDA software packages out there. Here are just a few.

Meaningful Coding Hierarchies

The ATLAS.ti Object Explorer is a clickable tool that lists all work and connections between documents and their quotes. It shows connections of every code with every other code and provides sophisticated views of the coding scheme ( including all the interconnections). Of course, hierachical views of the coding scheme are also possible.

Grouping

ATLAS.ti lets you group codes without changing the coding scheme via its simple-to-use code families (shortcuts to codes)

Transitive Relationships

A unique and extremely powerful feature of ATLAS.ti is its capability of letting you define functional relationships, embodied in transitive (or hierarchical) links, such as 'is a', 'part of; 'causes' etc. Its powerful Query Tool lets you retrieve data based on transitivity.



Flexible Searching / Retrieving / Filtering

ATLASti makes it quick and easy to focus attention on parts of the dataset without even opening its dedicated search tools. Double clicking on code and/or document families filters your work in various ways, providing great insight into the dataset without . Codes can be sorted in multiple ways in ATLAS.ti; this adds great flexibility to the ways information about progress and frequency can be produced.

ATLAS.ti sports powerful search & retrieve functions with Boolean, semantic, and proximity-based operators. Searches always locate coded quotations in context which keeps you very close to the source data at all times.

Comprehensive Annotations


ATLAS.ti gives you numerous different ways to fully annotate your material. Attach extensive comments (even containing multimedia and embeded objects!) to any program object, i.e. quotations, documents, codes or networks. Or create standalone memos that become automous objects and are centrally listed, accessible and searchable.

Powerful Hyperlinking

Hyperlinking allows for precise point-to-point jumping around the dataset at text level. ATLAS.ti enables this very effectively for both text and multimedia, e.g. audiovisual data. In text the hyperlinks flagged in the margin view are easily navigated by clicking.
