Kinds of Research in Different Areas of Knowledge
Scientific Research gives stress to measurable and observable facts instead of
personal views, feelings, or attitudes. It can be used in researches under the hard sciences
(Baraceros, 2017), these are: Science, Technology, Enginering, and Medicine including the
natural sciences: Biology, Physics, and Chemistry.
On the other hand, naturalistic research approach is people-oriented. Data collected,
in these case, represent personal views, attitudes, thoughts, emotions and other subjective
traits of people in a natural setting.Collecting data is done in family homes, playground,
workplaces, or schools. In these places, people’s personal traits or qualities naturally as they
interact with one another.it focuses on discovering real meaning behind people’s lifestyles
and social relations.
Unlike the scientific approach that makes you present and interpret your findings
quantitatively, which means in numerical forms, the naturalistic approach lets you present
things qualitatively through verbal language.

contemporary needs and problems.

measurement of many things.
c. Experimental Research
 It is a problem-solving approach that the study is described in the future
of what will be.
 It conforms to the natural science and has limitations in the field of
education, sociology, and psychology
d. Case Study
 It is an intensive investigation of a particular individual, insttution,
community, or any group which include the development, adjustment,
remedial, or corective procedures that suitably follow diagnosis of the
causes of maladjustment or of favorable development.

remedial applied and finally, subsequent follow up is conducted.
