(a) How it is related to and extended towards their existing knowledge?
Proper research was undertaken to find out the reason behind the occurrence of such
causes. The study was entirely planned and then carried upon. Qualitative research was
undertaken for this purpose. The Qualitative research can be defined as the strategy for
effectively gaining insight for the challenges that facilitates the idea and the hypothesis
development. The qualitative researches on the other hand has been the correct approach
regarding the phenomenon under the investigation. This category of the research can furthermore
be categorized as one of the major type of the inquiry towards the empirical studies. This
approach is characterised on the basis of the subjective experience by the participants. Hence, the
methodology was appropriate. Besides, the use of two specific observation was undertake; they
are as follows:
 Informal observation takes place when we make several views irrespective of using any of
the systematic procedure for the assessment and the observation regarding the accuracy of
what has been discovered.
 The observation termed as the selective observations can be illustrated as the approach when
we witness those patterns that is expected to be observed or in case of the assumption of the
existence of the designs.
The use of the qualitative, as well as quantitative research, was undertaken to penetrate
the factors into depth and obtain a meaningful result. The researcher of the study considered the
design regarding the phenomenology targeting the description of the experience of the one
particular participants regarding one specific event with the context of the collection of the
subjective data. Within the research study, the researcher recruited the study subjects by the

3HEALTH SECTOR
procedure of the purposive sampling techniques. This is dependable over the technique of the
non-probability sampling. The process of the sampling used in the research study helped in the
selection of the participants on the basis on the characteristics regarding the wider range of
population with the alignment with the targets and the aims of the study.
While conducting the research the researcher of the study conducted some of the
thorough analysis regarding the examination of the role and the participants of the survey.
Analysis regarding the role of the participants were done keeping in mind whether the
participants are responsible and played active role towards making some of the key and major
decisions regarding the car towards the dementia patients. The selection of the participants were
also done on the basis of the plethora of the socio economic factors and characteristics. This
include age, level of education, sex, ethnicity, attainment and religion. When research is being
carried out by the health scientists (e.g., experiments), they make use of different aspects and
methodology to clarify a particular problem such that a researcher or scientist can make use of the
inductive reasoning. The concept of the inductive reasoning can be explained as the approach that draws
conclusion from the evidences from the specific to the general factors. Another approach that is valid
within the research study is the deductive reasoning. This can be described as the finding of the evidence
towards the supporting or disapproving of the collected findings in particular. Throughout the research, it
has been evident that the arguments on the basis of the observations and the experiences are best
projected inductively. On the other hand the arguments on the basis of the theories, the hypothesis, the
rues and the laws and some of the other widely accepted principles are expressed on a deductive manner.
However, the different set of research and experiments enters with that of their own
specific set of ethical standards. This standards normally vary very frequently upon the research which is
being conducted upon the human subject and upon the non-human subject as well.

According to the research studies, all the research study has their own set of the considerations
and concerns related to ethics. It has been evident that those which are being associated with the research
over the subjects of humans tends to vary and differ dramatically from that of the research study which
are being conducted over the non living entities. Research study over the human presents several of the
unique considerations regarding ethics. It is thus important to allow the human research studies to consent
towards their effective participation in the research. Besides this, shared information by the participants
and the identities related to the subject needs to be protected by the researchers. The process of the
protection of the identity and the consent though differ as per the requirement of the research study, but
possess as one of the essential factor towards the ethical considerations while conducting research study.
(b) The extent to which it is congruent with existing frameworks within the scientific
literature and will be supporting future employment as the practitioner of public health?
There is an immense need for the research ethics to do with, in respect of fact regarding the
process and the method used for the research study to conduct and how the findings from the research are
being used. According to several of the research studies, ,the practice related to the research of the ethics
does not end with the identification of subject and the effective gathering of the relevant data for the
research study. It is essential for the health researchers to interpret the procedure followed by them in the
research together with the analysis of the research findings. This includes the factors of the honesty
towards the procedure and the method of the subjects of the research, the way and the method used for the
collection of the data, the tools used for the analysis and the interpretation of the data and the conclusion
towards the findings of the research study. With the disclose of the method and the ways that the research
study was being conducted the research can help the readers to understand the authenticity of the research
with proper legitimate research findings. It is essential for the researchers of the study to be honest
regarding the strength and weakness and the limitations of the research study . This is because these
information regarding the research study help the researcher towards stating some of the reasonable

5HEALTH SECTOR
strategic actions and recommendations for the future study; thus furthermore helping other researchers to
resolve their inquiries.
On the other contrary, much of the research and experiments that have taken place within
the field of the health sciences contribute towards the study of the relationship of one type of
event or characteristic or variable to another. As introduced earlier, in a two-variable
relationship, one can be considered the independent variable which can be associated with or
related to the dependent variable. This relationship can be causal (i.e., one causing the other) or
non-causal. It is because of the difficulties of performing well-controlled experiments;
researchers conduct observational studies. Observational studies fall into two main categories:
descriptive (i.e., describing the occurrence of an event of interest, e.g., disease) and analytic (i.e.,
explaining the observed pattern of occurrence of an event of interest, e.g., illness). These studies,
in turn, may be subdivided into other study designs such as cross-sectional, case-control, and
cohort studies. The selected study design will depend on the groups of persons investigated and
the time relationships involved.
However, the different set of research and experiments enters with that of their own
specific set of ethical standards. This standards normally vary very frequently upon the research which is
being conducted upon the human subject and upon the non-human subject as well. Throughout the
research study, the researcher opted for the approach related to the design of the phenomenology
which targets the description of specific experiences of the participants towards particular event
by the collection of the subjective data. The recruitment for the subjects of the study was done
with the accordance of the procedure regarding purpose sampling techniques which is
dependable over the technique of the non-probability sampling.
