Research Design and Survey

The discussion assignment for this week includes a review of your fellow classmates’ research questions for their topic, survey questions, and hypothesis or statement of the problem for the research question. Review at least 1 student and provide feedback on what was done well and possible areas of improvement.

Last week you presented your research topic and shared ethical considerations for your selected topic. In developing your plan for the Unit 4 Individual Project, there are additional considerations such as the survey questions that will gather the information needed to complete your research study. There are two types of research questions- qualitative and quantitative.

Qualitative research questions are about human perceptions, descriptions, stories, or lived experiences. For example, do ABC IT employees assigned as full-time prefer to work remotely or to work in the office?

Quantitative research questions are numbers-based. For example, how does the amount of news intake correlate to anxiety levels?

Create Your Survey

Building on your research topic identified in the Unit 2 discussion board complete the following: 400-600 words

• Identify your research method (i.e., qualitative or quantitative), and write 1 research question regarding that topic in preparation for the assignment in Unit 4.
• Based on your chosen research method, write your hypothesis or statement of the problem for your research question.
• Based on your chosen research method, create 3–5 survey or interview questions that could help answer your research question.
