Question 1
In applied research firstly the most important information to confirm is the timeframe
for any research. However, researcher need to select between different alternatives and thus
required information the research issue. Nonetheless, the research questions and proposed
solution should be clarified to the researcher for effectively carrying out the study. Once the
question to be answered is clearly defined then the value of research must be assessed to
accomplish. So, the understanding the question and requirements related research is the point
of clarification in research (Cavana, Delahaye and Sekaran, 2001).
Question 2
Planning, focus and literature review, these are the three steps through which we can
clarify and confirm information regarding applied research. In applied research process,
researcher must have to plan a proposal that explains the problem to be addressed (Brown,
2014). Along with this, focus is laid on the timeframe and requirements of research by which
the question will be answered. Lastly, the literature review is conducted so as to get the in-
depth information about the research issue.
Question 3
In applied research data can be collected in the form of words on a survey, with a
questionnaire, through observations and from the literature review. Once the data has been
collected it can be maintained in the systematic manner by three steps which is classifying the
findings, comparing and interpretation of finding. This process can be done efficiently by
using tools like tables, charts and diagram and bullets points etc. (Harrell and Bradley, 2009).
Question 4.
The length of the test, guessing, test retest interval, variability of scores, variation,
group variability and environmental are the various internal and external factors which affects
the reliability of the data. In the same context, test related factors, intervening events and the
criteria to select the suitable instrument are factors which affect the validity of data
(Csikszentmihalyi and Larson, 2014).
Question 5.
Immediate solution to research issue, systematic review of secondary data, external
and internal validity, generalization of findings are the various things which might be covered
