Practical Research 2 Significance of The Study

This document provides guidance on key elements of a research proposal, including the significance of the study, conceptual framework, definitions of terms, and hypothesis. It emphasizes that the significance section should explain how the study will contribute new knowledge and who will benefit. The conceptual framework establishes the theoretical basis and relationships between variables. Well-defined hypotheses that can be tested, measured, and verified are important to focus and give direction to the research. The document also provides tips on writing each section clearly and fully explaining the research.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY: BENEFITS
AND BENEFICIARIES OF THE STUDY
Essentially, the section on significance of the study provides
information to the reader on how the study will contribute. It must be
specially stated, however what the study will contribute and who will
benefit from it.
An explanation of the significance of a study may include the meaning
of the research work to you personally and should include how your
research benefits or impacts others in part or whole. Discuss what people
or groups of people might benefit from reading your research. Show how
this project is significant to developing a body of knowledge. Without
significant contribution, a research study will neither be appreciated nor
regarded feasible to go on, and will not be given the chance to be
funded.
Researchers attempting to describe the significance of
a study should consider why their work is important and
what its implications are. They should consider how the
study might fill in knowledge gaps in their field develop
better theoretical models or point the way toward further
study. Researchers should also examine what impact the
study might have not just on the academic or scientific
community but also the general public. They should
present practical benefits, such as how the work might
inform policy, improve some aspects of people’s lives,
help people save money, make a process more efficient
or help the environment. They should also explain the
unique perspectives they or their team bring to the
research study.
Write the significance of the study by looking into the general
contribution of your study, such as its importance to society as a whole,
then proceed downwards toward its contribution to individuals and that
may include yourself as a researcher. You start off broadly then narrow
down gradually to a specific group or person. Here are some tips when
writing the significance of the study:

1. It describes the contributions of the study as new knowledge, make


findings more conclusive.
2. It cites the usefulness of the study to the specific groups.
3. Cite all the persons and groups that benefited on your
study/research.
4. Include a short explanation regarding how those persons and groups
benefited from the study or simply how the research study will help
them.
5. The researchers should include themselves.
THE CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
A conceptual framework is an analytical tool with several
variations and contexts. It is used to make conceptual
distinctions and organize ideas. Strong conceptual frameworks
capture something real and do this in a way that is easy to
remember and apply.

A conceptual framework is a bit like a recipe or blueprint. It


provides an outline of how you plan to conduct the research for
your study, but it goes further than that by also positioning your
work within the larger field of research. Writing a conceptual
framework can not only help to guide your study to ensure that
your research stays on track, but it also helps to guide fellow
researchers or advisers who are analyzing your study.
Most research report cast the problem
statement within the context of a conceptual
or theoretical framework. A description of this
framework contributes to a research report in
at least two ways because it:

1.Identifies research variables, and

2.Clarifies relationships among the variables


The most important thing to understand about your
conceptual framework is that it is primarily a conception or
model of what is out there that you plan to study, and of
what is going on with these things and why a tentative theory
of the phenomena that you are investigating. The function of
this theory is to inform the rest of your design to help you to
assess and refine your goals, develop realistic and relevant
research questions, select appropriate methods, and identify
potential validity threats to your conclusions.
Another way of putting this is that a conceptual
framework for your research is something that is
constructed, not found. It incorporates pieces that
are borrowed from elsewhere, but the structure, the
overall coherence, is something that you build, not
something that exist ready-made. It is important for
you to plan to study, because these are often key
sources for understanding what is going on with these
phenomena.
Write a Narrative

It is much better to have a diagram for a clearer


understanding of the reader of your concept. You can
present the same information better by writing a
narrative. Your narrative should summarize the
variables influencing your research and explore how
they may change your hypothesis.
Research Hypothesis
A hypothesis is an educated prediction that can be
tested. It describes in concrete terms what you expect will
happen in a certain circumstance.

A hypothesis is used in an experiment to define the


relationship between two variables. The purpose of a
hypothesis is to find the answer to a question. A formalized
hypothesis will force the researcher to think about what
results he should look for in an experiment.
A hypothesis should always:

1.Explain what you expect to happen

2.Be clear and understandable

3.Be testable

4.Be measurable

5.And contain an independent and dependent variable


Two forms of writing the Hypothesis:
IMPORTANCE OF HYPOTHESIS

1. Clarity- A hypothesis brings clarity to a research hence making it easier to


understand.

2. Specificity- Every researcher wants to bring specificity in his research and


hypothesis makes the research very specific.

3. Focus- No research can be conducted properly unless there is some focus in it. The
researcher should focus on the specific areas of the research.

4. Direction- Hypothesis also shows direction to the researcher. Without hypothesis


the researcher looks at various aspects of the research as he has to decide how to
start the research.

5. Empirical- One of the most important quality of the hypothesis is that it makes the
research empirical and the findings of such research are valid and generalizable.
QUALITIES OF A RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS
1. Well defined- The first quality of a research hypothesis is that it
should be well-defined, simple and easy to understand.

2. Relevant- The researcher hypothesis should have to be relevant


to the research study.

3. Measurable- One of the most important consideration in formulating a


research hypothesis is that it should have to be measurable. Without
measurement of the hypothesis the researcher cannot reach any conclusion.

4. Verifiable- Every hypothesis that a researcher formulates has to be


verified using certain methods and techniques. Verification is necessary
as its helps in analyzing the research and reaching a conclusion.
