Exploratory Research: Purpose And Process
-Exploratory research (qualitative research) is employed to develop initial ideas and insights and to provide direction for any further research needed (Churchill & Iacobucci, 2005 ; Aakeret. Al. 2007). An exploratory study is essential when a researcher needs to identify problems, defines the problem more precisely and identifies any specific objectives or data requirements to be addressed ...
An Introduction to Experimental and Exploratory Research
Abstract. Experimental research is a study that strictly adheres to a scientific research design. It includes a hypothesis, a variable that can be manipulated by the researcher, and variables that can be measured, calculated and compared. Most importantly, experimental research is completed in a controlled environment.

An exploratory research design was employed since much is not known about SLP in the area under study and there isn't enough data to support this study (Stebbins, 2019). The study was carried out ...
The potential of working hypotheses for deductive exploratory research
Introduction. Exploratory research is generally considered to be inductive and qualitative (Stebbins 2001).Exploratory qualitative studies adopting an inductive approach do not lend themselves to a priori theorizing and building upon prior bodies of knowledge (Reiter 2013; Bryman 2004 as cited in Pearse 2019).Juxtaposed against quantitative studies that employ deductive confirmatory approaches ...
Exploratory Research
It has been noted that "exploratory research is the initial research, which forms the basis of more conclusive research. It can even help in determining the research design, sampling methodology and data collection method" [2]. Exploratory research "tends to tackle new problems on which little or no previous research has been done" [3].
Exploratory Factor Analysis: A Guide to Best Practice
Abstract. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) is a multivariate statistical method that has become a fundamental tool in the development and validation of psychological theories and measurements. However, researchers must make several thoughtful and evidence-based methodological decisions while conducting an EFA, and there are a number of options ...
Exploratory Data Analysis
1 Introduction. Exploratory data analysis (EDA) is an essential step in any research analysis. The primary aim with exploratory analysis is to examine the data for distribution, outliers and anomalies to direct specific testing of your hypothesis. It also provides tools for hypothesis generation by visualizing and understanding the data usually ...
The Use of the Exploratory Sequential Approach in Mixed-Method Research
In this paper, the use of the exploratory sequential approach mixed method is demonstrated in the three chosen stages (Stages 1, ... A rigorous approach for designing an exploratory, sequential research method using both interviews and survey data was created in this work. The tool's novelty was established in its point of departure from the ...
Exploratory and confirmatory research in the open science era
Based on our sample of research papers, it seems that clearly stating a research hypothesis in the introduction is surprisingly rare in the literature (Figure 1a). Overall, only about 19% of the studies presented clear hypotheses, whereas about 26% presented what we term 'implied hypotheses' or 'partly', where the hypothesis could be ...
Exploratory Research: Purpose And Process
Objectives of the Paper: Exploratory research has the goal of formulating problems more precisely, clarifying concepts, gathering explanations, gaining insight, eliminating impractical ideas and forming hypotheses. Literature research, survey, focus group and case studies are usually used to carry out exploratory 4. To find limitations of ...

Reshoring, Automation, and Labor Markets Under Trade Uncertainty
2024-16 | May 8, 2024. We study the implications of trade uncertainty for reshoring, automation, and U.S. labor markets.
