Book excerpt: `This is an impressively detailed, clearly written book.... It is a book that I would like students to read′ - Clive Seale, Goldsmiths College, London Social Research: Theory, Methods and Techniques presents an understanding of social research practice through appreciation of its foundations and methods. Stretching from the philosophy of science to detailed descriptions of both qualitative and quantitative techniques, it illustrates not only `how′ to do social research, but also `why′ particular techniques are used today. The book is divided into three parts: Part One: Illustrates the two basic paradigms - quantitative and qualitative - of social research, describing their origins in philosophical thought and outlining their current interpretations. Part Two: Devoted to quantitative research, and discusses the relationship between theory and research practice. It also presents a discussion of key quantitative research techniques. Part Three: Examines qualitative research. Topics range from classical qualitative techniques such as participant observation, to more recent developments such as ethnomethodological studies. Overall, the author offers an engaging contribution to the field of social research and this book is a reminder of the solid foundations upon which most social research is conducted today. As a consequence it will be required reading for students throughout the social sciences, and at various levels.

Book excerpt: The goal of conducting research that is descriptive is to offer a description of the subject under investigation. For a product that has just been released, for example, the characteristics of consumers may be stated in terms of the degree to which product usage varies with factors such as income, age, gender, and other characteristics. In another example, the characteristics of consumers may be stated in terms of the degree to which product usage changes over time. In order to generate the most possible revenue, a descriptive study needs to collect data for a certain purpose. A single hypothesis should be used as the guiding principle whenever descriptive investigations produce varying degrees of agreement. It makes it possible to test both implicit and explicit hypotheses, however the specifics of how this is done depend on the area of study that is being conducted. For instance, a corporation that deals in petroleum would find that its sales had decreased. The company is able to draw this conclusion based on the feedback it receives from the market, which indicates that economically challenged households do not purchase the company's oil for use in the kitchen. After then, one may perhaps do descriptive research in order to put such a theory to the test. The phase of research described as "the act of modifying one or more variables under the conditions, in which the data that indicates the effects will be collected" is referred to as "experimentation." The term "experimentation" refers to this phase of research. Experiments will create artificial situations in order to supply the researcher with the precise data required for the study as well as the methods to properly measure that data. This will be accomplished by fabricating fictitious conditions. Experiments are considered to be artificial due to the fact that the conditions in which they are conducted are frequently constructed for the sole purpose of carrying out the experiment. Because doing so grants the researchers a greater degree of control over the factors that are the subject of their investigation, the experimental places a heavy emphasis on the use of artificial components. They will be in a position to gather more convincing evidence of the cause-and-effect linkages that exist between the variables if they are able to exercise control over those factors that are components of a particular scenario. Therefore, the ability to create a scenario with the express purpose of observing and accurately recording the effect that a deliberate change in another factor has on a first factor enables researchers to accept or reject hypotheses with an absolute certainty that is beyond the realm of reasonable doubt.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of management research methodology is enthralling and complex. A student or a practitioner of management research is beguiled by uncertainties in the search and identification of the research problem, intrigued by the ramifications of research design, and confounded by obstacles in obtaining accurate data and complexities of data analysis. Management Research Methodology: Integration of Principles, Methods and Techniques seeks a balanced treatment of all these aspects and blends problem-solving techniques, creativity aspects, mathematical modelling and qualitative approaches in order to present the subject of Management Research Methodology in a lucid and easily understandable way.

Book excerpt: A scientific approach to architectural and architectonic research from the scope of just one discipline is no longer sufficient. With contemporary considerations such as behavior, health, and environmental protection, architects and students alike need holistic research methodologies that incorporate qualitative elements as well as more traditional quantitative ones. Research Methods and Techniques in Architecture examines research methodologies and tools applied in science and architectonic practice. Beginning with a thorough introduction to the main scientific, environmental, and architectural theories of the late twentieth century, the book guides the reader through the different aspects of architectural research design, building research teams, choosing applicable research methods, and representing research results.

This book was released on 2020-01-13 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a solvent that is used as a degreasing agent, a chemical intermediate in refrigerant manufacture, and a component of spot removers and adhesives. It is produced in mass quantities but creates dangerous vapors and is an environmental contaminant at many industrial and government facilities, including facilities run by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). It is important to determine the safe occupational exposure level (OEL) for the solvent in order to protect the health of workers who are exposed to its vapors. However, there are concerns that the current occupational standards insufficiently protect workers from these health threats. Review of DOD's Approach to Deriving an Occupational Exposure Level for Trichloroethylene makes recommendations to improve the DoD's approach to developing an OEL for TCE, strengthen transparency of the process, and improve confidence in the final OEL value. This report reviews the DoD's approach using a literature review, evidence synthesis based on weight of evidence [WOE], point-of-departure derivation, physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling, extrapolation tools, and explores other elements of the process of deriving an OEL for TCE. It examines scientific approaches to developing exposure values and cancer risk levels, defining the scope of the problem, and improving hazard identification.
