Answer 1

The research and scientific method, importance of knowing how research is done and research process --

• While conducting researc, the scientific method is used to collect information, emprical evidence in the form of if/then statement.
• The steps of scientific methods are --
• Make observations.
• Collect information and ask questions about the observation.
• provide tentative description of what has been observed and make prediction based on information.

• The process of returning again and again is to research questions, data and methods which helps to lead new ideas and revision and improvement.
• The research project should be discussed with advisor and peer and variables need to be identified and the changes need to be made.
• It is very important to examine study methods and data from different point of view to make sure comprehensive approach to the research question.
• For example -- research based on the children. they eat almonds three times a week.
• To do this research we need to divide household into two categories. which is, those who eat almonds at least three times a week and those who do not.
• the result shows positive relatonship exists between children who need spaces (glasses) and children who do not eat almonds often.
• These questions can be based on research methods. different research methods have diffrent validity. these helps to identify how accurate the result of research method is.
• result of study help to provide stronger evidence if the research contain higher measure of validity.
