without an intervention would include the data collection instrument. Think of this as the warm
up for the full discussion of your data collection strategy in the sections below.
*Please note that it is important to distinguish and understand prior to your Research
Design (or Research Strategy) section there is a difference between studies involving human
intervention and those that rely on secondary forms of data. To start a human intervention study,
after the preamble you would begin with the sections: Setting, and Population. Studies using
secondary data you would start with Data Source (or Sources) after the preamble and then move
to the Research Design section. A study involving both human participants and secondary data
you would use all three sections. All three of these sections are described below. Use the ones
appropriate to your study.
Research Questions
List and then discuss each of the general questions that determine what methods you will
use and what type of data you will collect. These are indicated by the research problem and
bound by your theoretical perspective and your research methodology. These are later made
obvious in the argument of the Literature Review. For example,
Example one:
The researcher sets out to examine the decision-making styles and the ef-
fects it has on employee performance in the workplace. Research was conducted
by a content analysis utilizing the results of searching numerous scholarly jour-
nals that have conducted research on decision-making styles in the workplace and
how leaders arrive at making the decisions they make in the workplace.
Research question one (RQ1): How might leader’s decision-making
styles effect employee performance?
Proposition one (P1): Leader’s decision-making styles are informed by
emotions or feelings.
