Question Bank - Research Methodology Unit I: - Research Problem

This document outlines the topics covered in 5 units of a research methodology course. Unit I discusses defining research objectives, classifying research types such as quantitative, observational and case study research, and outlining the steps of the research process. Unit II covers measurement systems, classifying instruments, and issues related to data collection and noise. Unit III focuses on applied statistics topics like normal distribution, curve fitting, measures of central tendency and dispersion. Unit IV examines research errors and multivariate analysis techniques. Unit V describes developing a research proposal, including outlining its format and addressing expenses.
