Q1. Research MethodsThe research is defined as the systematic investigation or a study of sources in order to determine the new facts and conclusions. The reason is mainly conducted for the enhancement of knowledge which is not having any immediate commercial potential. Following are the types of research methods:1.Basic research is formulated to add scientific knowledge in an organized manner, and it does not have any immediate practical use. The applied science is mainly conducted to improve the conditions of human beings. It is conducted by the huge agencies such as government, UNICEF, and others. It is conducted by the agencies that are having the capability to make such investments for example research conducted to improve the crop production (Bryman et al., 2015). 2.The applied research is mainly conducted to solve the practical problem. The objective of the research is to improve the knowledge of human beings through analyses which help to solve the problems of real or social life.3.The problem-oriented research is done by the body of industry apex which solves the problems of companies through research. 4. The problem-solving research is conducted by an individual organization for solving the problem of their organization such as market research.5.The quantitative research is based on numeric figures which have the aim to measure the quality and quantity based on the previous records. 6.The qualitative research is a subjective research which is done through collecting, analyzing and data interpretations.

Quantitative approachThe quantitative research h is mainly related to the positivist paradigm. The data is collected and analyzed to convert it into the statistical form which helps to draw a conclusion. The quantitative research emphasizes on converting general reason to the specific (Taylor et al., 2015). The approach is situated with the social constructivist paradigm which emphasizes on constructed nature of reality in a social manner. Following are the two approaches:1.Pragmatic approachIt is related to the science in which the research method is selected according to the research problem, and there is a freedom in selecting the method for conducting the research. It includes the use of data triangulation, investigation triangulation, methodological triangulation and theory triangulation (Domhoff et al., 2013). 2.Participatory approachThe situation of people is not responded by the reasserting from vulnerable groups. The aim of anapproach is to bring positive change in the life of research subjects. The neutral position is adopted by the researcher which involves interaction with the research participants informally to gather the data for conducting the data analysis (Ramondo et al., 2014). ExampleThere are various examples of qualitative research such as theory, hypothesis and model generation, control and manipulation of variables through experiment, data collection of empirical.
