Therefore, the\u00a0key factor\u00a0for deciding which research methodology to adopt depends on the nature of your research aims, objectives, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.enago.com\/academy\/things-need-know-writing-good-research-question\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">research questions<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Norms of Research Area<\/h3>\n<p>Appropriate selection of your research methodology also involves scrutinizing and considering the\u00a0approaches used by other researchers\u00a0in the discipline or studies with similar aims and objectives. Researchers from same disciplines often follow a common methodological approach or set of approaches. While it doesn\u2019t mean you should follow the herd, you should at least consider these approaches and\u00a0evaluate their merit\u00a0to your research\u2019s benefit.<\/p>\n<h3>Practicalities of the Methodology<\/h3>\n<p>While most methodological approaches will deliver the most scientifically rigorous research design theoretically, the chances of constraints faced practically cannot be overlooked. \u00a0Hence, it is all the more important to evaluate your research methodology on the basis of its practicality in experimental conditions<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_Steps_to_Follow_While_Choosing_the_Best_Research_Methodology\"><\/span>What are the Steps to Follow While Choosing the Best Research Methodology?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Define the goals, objectives, and research question.<\/h3>\n<p>Before worrying about the inferences, it is important to draw a path toward conclusive results. Therefore, it is essential to clearly understand what you want to research before deciding upon how to research. Most importantly, <a href=\"https:\/\/libguides.usc.edu\/writingguide\/variables#:~:text=A%20variable%20in%20research%20simply,the%20variable%20you%20are%20using.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">determine the variables<\/a> that need to be studied in order to get an answer to the research question.\u00a0Sticking to variables will lead you to the final result.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Refer pertinent research and effectively used methodology<\/h3>\n<p>As there are immeasurable ways of conducting research all may not be meant for your study. Furthermore, determining the best research methodology can be difficult if you aren\u2019t aware of the approach undertaken by other researchers from your field. Therefore, reading pertinent literature in your research area and then evaluating its methodology based on the feasibility and limitations is essential.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Structuring the plan and finding resources to conduct research<\/h3>\n<p>While the research area may be same, the method of data collation may not be. Some may be time consuming, some may be found on the internet, others might need field study, or might be expensive. Therefore, it is essential to base your decision after giving a thought to these limitations of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.enago.com\/academy\/research-design-and-prelimnary-data-collection-methods\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">data collection<\/a> as well.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4: Write the research methodology in detail and review it<\/h3>\n<p>After selecting a particular approach to conduct your research, you must make a note of all activities. It must include the approximate time and resources each step might take. This helps in understanding the approach that your research would take and prepare you for the hurdles on its way to conclusive results.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reasons_to_Select_a_Specific_Research_Methodology\"><\/span>Reasons to Select a Specific Research Methodology<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3>You should select a qualitative research methodology because:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>It uses an inductive and subjective approach.
