Management Research: Plan, Outcome, Feasibility & Survey in Nigeria

This management research report provides a detailed exploration of key elements in the research process, including the research plan, outcome quality, and feasibility. It begins by outlining the components of a research plan, such as the research subject, objectives, literature review, research questions, methodology, and data analysis techniques, using examples to illustrate each point. The report then discusses the importance of outcome quality, particularly in the context of underage children's exposure to explicit online content, emphasizing the roles of parents, caregivers, and government in mitigating risks. A feasibility study is conducted, focusing on parental guidance and its impact on children's online safety. Furthermore, the research analyzes a case study on environmental factors and survey research in Nigeria, highlighting challenges such as truncated literary respondents and ethnic diversity. Finally, the report addresses the need for extensive empirical support in developing countries like Nigeria, proposing strategies for incorporating secondary data sources into academic research. Desklib offers a variety of similar solved assignments and past papers for students.

Question 1: Research Plan
The research plan basically defines “what?” and “how?” of the research process.
The research subject/topic- It is the main big question of the main research, summarized in one
sentence. For example, is global sustainability and environmental development go hand in hand?
The research objective- objectives may be many or just one. Based on the research objectives the
research questions and hypothesis are developed (Ary et al., 2018). For example, the objective of
this research paper is to find out how global sustainability is affected by environmental progress
and development.
Literature review/ theoretical support- this element basically covers all theoretical support to the
research topic. Here literature support on sustainability, environmental science, global
development etc. are to be discussed.
Research question/ hypothesis- Research question; defining the research question is very crucial
in research work. Because if the hypothesis set is not right the whole paper will be wastage.
H0: global sustainability and environmental development go hand in hand
H1: global sustainability and environmental development does not go hand in hand
Research methodology- methodology may be experimental design, survey study, usability study
and instructional design. In the example survey study method is used.
Approach of the research- here explanation of the conceptual framework of research is done.
Analysis grid is appropriate for the example considered.
Measures and materials- includes data collection techniques of sampling, observation, surveys,
case selection and events. Both qualitative and quantitative data collection method is apt for the
example provided.
Data Analysis- analysis may be qualitative or quantitative. Mixed approach of analysis will
increase effectiveness of the research findings in the example.
Information sourcing and final- it includes referencing, bibliography, data documentation,
information appendices if any.
Work agenda- includes dates of work planning.

Question 2: Outcome Quality
Taking the example of the topic- underaged children exposure to explicit content as a part of
missing parental guidance, will help in better understanding of quality outcome in researches.
The expansion of World Wide Web has been a boon for children as it helps them in boosting up
their education, self-expression, creativity and social skill development. But children are more
vulnerable to risks of online networking and it is the duty of the parents, caregivers, educators,
government and the society at large to protect them from this risk. Prevention is always better
than cure, but in this regard, parents play a major role in the exposure of children to explicit
online contents. Nuclear family system has increased the level of loneliness in children and they
try to find out alternate options to keep them busy. And online sources are the best option
available to them. Present day parents are more career-oriented and they have the least time for
their children. Children lack the parental guidance from their very early age and find it difficult
to differentiate between what is rational for them and what is not. As a result, they become
victims of internet crimes and risks. Government should make strict rules for internet usage and
privacy policy need to be more rigid. Parents should increase engagement with their child and
should monitor the usage of internet of their children.
Question 3: Research Feasibility
Research feasibility can be sub-categorized into a number of factors like,
Scope of the research- scope defines the research problem and opportunity to be addressed. The
problem if well stated is half solved. Here the issue emphasis on parental guidance and shows
how their direct intervention could affect child risk to online explicit contents. So, parents need
to be considered the most important factor for this feasibility study.
Current analysis- the present stand of the children risk to online explicit content need to be
studied so that the degree of precaution needs to be taken can be estimated. If degree is high
quick action on the issue need to be taken (Trochim, Donnelly & Arora, 2015).
Requirements- the need for parental guidance will vary from parent to parent and from one
country to another. US children are more prone to online risks and so their parents need to be
cautioned early. Mass awareness program need to be developed so that a fair percentage of
parent could participate for their children’s betterment.
Approach undertaken- More parent-children interaction, involvement in outdoor activities etc.
need to be focused so that children get less time to be online.
Evaluation- it includes satisfaction of the recommendation approach and viability of the steps
taken. Participation frequency, change implementation etc. need to be evaluated so that end
results improve considerably.
Review- all documentation of feasibility proceedings is assembled in the feasibility study and
review is conducted from both parent and children parties. Acceptance of the feasibility study is
important for adding quality to the research work.

Project summary
The research work inspects the influence of environmental factors
on research strategy survey in Nigeria (Omri, 2014). The results
specify that surveys are stuck by truncated literary respondents,
diversity of ethnic groups and lingos, incapability of respondents
to response survey enquiries suitably, and other environmental
factors. The research work concludes that if the pragmatic
environmental influences are significantly rectified, survey
investigation in Nigeria would be expressively enriched and
fortified widely.

Question 5:
One more question arising form this paper includes the need for extensive empirical support in
research work due to lack of secondary data source in academic research in developing countries
like Nigeria. How secondary data source can be extensively incorporated in academic research?
For this more and more research on various, literary work fields, cultural differentiations,
lifestyle, education and standard of living, environmental sustainability and governmental
institutions need to be done and data should be maintained wisely for future researches.
New research proposal is

Question 6:
The two researchers of the paper namely Lukman Raimi and Moruf Adebakin have contributed
immensely to the paper and have tried to incorporate every corner of academic research possible
in this research work. Students, researchers and professors were involved directly to carry out
survey but if Governmental institutions and public corporations were also considered then the
limitations of data collection could have been narrowed down and scope could have been
widened.
