Types and Purpose
The Research Question serves two purposes:
- it determines where and what kind of research the writer will be looking for and
- it identifies the specific objectives the study or paper will address.
Therefore, the writer must first identify the type of study (Qualitative, Quantitative, or Mixed) before the Research Question is developed.

Famous quotes containing the words types and/or purpose:
“Our children evaluate themselves based on the opinions we have of them. When we use harsh words, biting comments, and a sarcastic tone of voice, we plant the seeds of self-doubt in their developing minds.... Children who receive a steady diet of these types of messages end up feeling powerless, inadequate, and unimportant. They start to believe that they are bad, and that they can never do enough.”
—Stephanie Martson (20th century)
“To me the sole hope of human salvation lies in teaching Man to regard himself as an experiment in the realization of God, to regard his hands as God’s hand, his brain as God’s brain, his purpose as God’s purpose. He must regard God as a helpless Longing, which longed him into existence by its desperate need for an executive organ.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
