How to save your time with effective search strategy!

The search can be time consuming and sometimes tedious task. How can make it easier? How do deal with situations such as:



"I just join as new postgraduate students and I am not sure how doing a literature search, What is a literature review?, Where do I begin in conducting a literature review?” 

"I have been in research for some time now but I spend a lot of time to get the articles I want., What are the best materials to include in my review and how do I locate them?, Is it worth my time to search the Internet for the literature?”
 

"I am sure I have downloaded the article, but I am not able to find it”
 

"I wanted to write a new paper, how can I manage the references in the shortest possible time?”
 

"I have many references, some of my old papers, and some of my current research. Sometimes, they are so many that I can't recall where I have kept them in my folders!”
 

"I have written an article and I am not able to find a proper Journal, Are there any shortcuts for identifying a journal for submission?”

"I want to increase the citation of my papers, how do I do?"



We need an effective search strategy can save hours of wasted research time and provide a clear direction for your research. The benefits of attending this workshop are numerous and include learning how to change the direction of searching to discover and how to use more efficient the tools that are available through the Net."Research Tools”enable researchers to collect, organize, analyze, visualize, mobilize and create creative outputs. The benefits from using "Research Tools”can be summarized as helping researchers keep up to date with current developments in their chosen field, up to date information on what is regarding as interesting and stimulating by recognised professors, the ability to choose high-quality relevant papers related to the researchers field, evaluating other researcher and journals, publishing in appropriate journals, increased visibility for publications and access to important writing tools for editing, paraphrasing and summarizing.Writing your thesis or academic paper can be daunting enough but, with the use of the "Research Tools”what seemed virtually impossible will become true to any researcher.

Sharing research results is both an obligation and an opportunity. Since there are many considerations when a study concludes, Dr. Nader provided several"Research Tools” to help with the publication process and ideas for dissemination beyond publishing in a research journal. Publishing a high quality paper in scientific journals is only the mid point towards receiving citation in the future. The balance of the journey is completed by advertising and disseminating the publications. Familiarity with the tools allows the researchers to increase their h-index in a short time. H-index shows the academicians influence in the specified field of research. Therefore, an academician with a higher level of h-index is deemed to have publications of higher quality resulting in higher citations.

With the use of "Research Tools” the whole painstaking process of your research will be simplified and made easy, leaving you free to use your time for discovering.

THE EFFECT SIZES IN A MEDIATION MODEL

Effect size is the amount of variance explained in the mediation model contributed by every single path. The researcher might be interested to know the relative contribution of individual paths in the mediation model, especially the effect of a mediator on the dependent variable. The researcher could assess the effect size for every path in the model, and also the mediated effect of the moderator variable itself. Specifically, the two effect sizes are:

(1) The R2 Measures the effect size of individual path in the model (3 paths)
(2) The R2 Measures the size of mediated effect of a mediator in the model
The range of values of R2 and its relative effect size based on definition by Cohen (1988) is given in Table 2.


1) R2 measures for the individual path in the mediation model is defined as follows
     i) r2XM represents the squared partial correlation between the X and M variables in the model,
     ii) r2XY denotes the squared partial correlation between X and Y variables in the model,
    iii) r2MY.X corresponds to the squared partial correlation between the M and Y variables with the influence of X removed,
 

For the above example - the following measures are obtained:
   i) The effect size of Skills & Training (X) on Job Attitude (M) is 0.78 (Figure 1)
  ii) The effect size of Skills & Training (X) on Career Advancement (Y) is 0.59 (Figure 2)
  iii) The effect size of Job Attitude (M) on Career Advancement (Y), controlling for X
This is equivalent to r2XMY - r2XY = 0.67 – 0.59 = 0.08 (Note: r2XMY=0.67 - Figure 1)
Conclusion: The effect size of a mediator on DV in small range


2) R2 Measures for the mediated effect of the mediator (Job Attitude).
This value is computed using the following formula:
R2MY – (R2 XMY - R2XY)
Where:
R2XY is the R2 for the model containing X and Y only (Figure 2)
R2MY is the R2 for the model containing M and Y only (Figure 3)
R2 XMY is the R2 for the model containing all X, M, and Y (Figure 1)
R2MY – (R2 XMY - R2XY)
0.66 – (0.67-0.59) = 0.58


Thus, based on Cohen (1988), the mediated effect size of the mediator Job Attitude in the relationship between Skills & Training and Career Advancement is in large range.

Atlas.ti

The benefits of using ATLAS.ti for your Literature Review.

“I did my Master’s degree by full coursework, so I do not have strong skills to carry out research on my own. As I furthered my studies doing PhD by full research, I had problems to do my literature review. Understanding my problem, my supervisor advised me to try out a software called ATLAS.ti. Ahamdulillah, I found that ATLAS.tiis a good system to manage my literatures, dan simplifies the writing up of literature reviews.”
“Give me the opportunity to demonstrate to you how ATLAS.ti can help you for your literature review process.”
(Ani Munirah Mohamad, 2013)
ATLAS.ti certified trainer in South East Asia

Kadang-kadang kita diasak dengan soalan daripada orang, kenapa kita sambung pengajian ke peringkat Phd? Macam-macam orang kata, susahlah, boleh belajar ke nanti?  Ah! Kita punya alasan sendiri kan untuknya! Mungkin ini alasan-alasan yang sering kita dengar.

1. Berminat dengan topik tertentu. Untuk kepuasan diri


2. Kerana kita akan berkerja dalam bidang akademik.

3. Untuk kenaikan gaji


4. Kita mahu menjadi seorang pakar dalam bidang yang kita ceburi


5. Dapat tajaan. Wow!

6. Mahu bergelar Dr! Yey!!!

Jadi, apakah alasan anda?

Hmmm, walau apa pun alasan anda, teruskan usaha dan perjuangan anda. Jangan sesekali mengalah!

Qualitative Research and Data Analysis using NVivo software

Hi there!

This is some info about Qualitative Research and Data Analysis using NVivo software.


What is Qualitative Research?

  • Qualitative research is all about exploring issues, understanding phenomena, and answering questions?
  • It analyzed the unstructured information through the data gathered from the related research topic.
  • It gains insight into people’s attitudes, behaviors, value systems, concerns, motivations, aspirations, culture or lifestyle.
  • It’s used to inform decisions, policy information, communication & research.



What is Qualitative Research software?

  • Helps people to manage, shape and make sense of unstructured information.
  • It does NOT do the thinking for you; it provides a sophisticated workspace that enables you to work through your information.
  • It has tools for classifying, sorting and arranging information.
  • It gives you more time to analyze the materials, identify the themes, glean insight and develop meaningful conclusions.
  • ‘TRY & ERROR’ OR ‘TRY & ADJUST’



What is NVivo?

NVivo is software that helps you easily organize and analyze unstructured information, so that you can ultimately make better decisions.

 Whatever your materials, whatever your field, whatever your approach, NVivo provides a workspace to help you at every stage of your project - from organizing your material, through to analysis, and then sharing and reporting.

“NVivo is more than a simple qualitative data analysis program; it is a vital resource for planning, team coordination, literature reviews, research design, data analysis and reporting.”

Chris Atchison, Department of Sociology and Anthropology (Simon Fraser University)


NVIVO as computer aided software

Computer aided software need to be treated as an aided tool (Nacos et al., 1991) and not as a replacement for highly developed human capabilities of reading, transcribing, and translating written matter. 


It is vital for a researcher to have the skills and ideas to challenge their analysis by undergoing a manual procedure to ensure the reliability and validity of doing research.

Researchers need to bear in mind that, only they know what they are trying to seek from the raw data, and how they could possibly manipulate the data towards the right direction.



What does NVivo help you achieve?

• Spend more time on analysis and discovery, not administrative tasks.

• Work systematically and ensure you don’t miss anything in your data.

• Interrogate your information and uncover subtle connections in ways that simply aren’t possible manually.

• Rigorously justify your findings with evidence.

• Manage all your material in one project file.

• Easily work with material in your own language.

• Effortlessly share your work with others.

At the end of the program you should be able to start your analysis using NVivo to cater your research need by providing/reporting your result in systematic way.
