    Question 1:

    Answer: Any information gathered, observed, developed, or created to


    validate initial study results is referred to as research data. Non-digital media
    such as laboratory notebooks and diaries are included with research data,
    which is usually digital. Based on the collection techniques, data may be
    classified into four categories: observational, experimental, simulation, and
    derived. Alternatively, if you need to merge data points from many sources,
    you must follow best practices to avoid data corruption.

    Question 2:

    Answer: Research data management entails active data organization and


    maintenance during the research process and appropriate data preservation
    after the project's conclusion. It is a continuous process that occurs
    throughout the data lifecycle. The technique of gathering, organizing,
    securing, and keeping an organization's data to be examined for business
    decisions is known as data management. As businesses generate and
    consume data at unprecedented rates, data management solutions are
    becoming increasingly important for making sense of massive amounts of
    data.

    Question 3:

    Answer: Data concerning numeric variables are quantitative data (e.g., how
    many, how much, or how often). Qualitative data is a sort of data that may be
    represented by a name, symbol, or number code. Data concerning
    categorical variables are qualitative data (e.g., what type).
    Question 4:

    Answer: Quantitative approaches stress objective measurements and


    statistical, mathematical, or numerical analysis of data acquired through polls,
    questionnaires, and surveys, as well as the manipulation of pre-existing
    statistical data using computing tools.

    Question 5:

    Answer: Qualitative data collecting methods are primarily concerned with


    acquiring insights, reasoning, and motives, and as a result, they are more
    in-depth in terms of study. Researchers favor procedures or data-gathering
    instruments that are organized to a limited extent since qualitative data
    cannot be quantified.

    Question 6:

    Answer:
    ● HubSpot
    ● MAXQDA
    ● Quirkos
    ● Qualtrics
    ● Raven’s Eye

    Question 7:

    Answer:
    ● Step 1: Ask the right questions - It would be best to choose what you
    want to do with the data before you begin collecting it. Take some time
    to contemplate a specific business problem you'd like to tackle or a
    hypothesis that may be answered using data. Then you'll come up with
    a list of measured, clear, and concise questions to assist you in
    answering it.
    ● Step 2: Data Collection - This leads to the following phase, which is data
    collecting. Now that you've figured out what questions you want to ask,
    it's time to figure out what data you'll need to obtain the answers. As a
    starting point, see if the information is readily available within your
    organization—for example, in the case of HR, employee survey results,
    or yearly performance reviews.
    ● Step 3: Data Cleaning - You've gathered and incorporated information
    from a variety of sources. Great. But this isn't the time to roll up your
    sleeves and get started. This is because raw data is rarely useable in its
    current state. You'll frequently uncover faults in it, such as missing
    values. While these may appear insignificant, they may be highly
    harmful: even tiny mistakes might affect your results.
    ● Step 4: Analyzing the data - You'll start slicing and dicing your data to
    extract valuable insights in this stage. You'll search for hidden patterns
    and correlations, as well as insights and forecasts, using data analysis
    techniques and approaches.
    ● Step 5: Interpreting the results - The next stage is to construct
    visualizations by picking the most relevant charts and graphs once
    you've evaluated the findings and formed significant conclusions from
    them.

    Question 8:

    Answer: The theoretical and conceptual framework clarifies the research's


    direction and anchors it in theoretical notions. The two frameworks' ultimate
    goal is to make research findings more meaningful, acceptable to research
    field theoretical conceptions, and generalizable. A conceptual framework aids
    in determining and clarifying what you know, care about, and value as core
    features of a study, as well as connecting them to other parts of and impacts
    on your research. You describe the theories that underpin your study in the
    theoretical framework, demonstrating that your work is based on
    well-established concepts.

    Question 1:

    Answer: Quantitative data is defined as the value of data expressed in counts


    or numbers, with each data set having a distinct numerical value.
    Quantitative data is typically gathered for statistical analysis by surveys, polls,
    or questionnaires delivered to a specified segment of the population.

    Question 2:

    Answer: A summary statistic that depicts the center point or usual value of a
    dataset is known as a measure of central tendency. The mean, median, and
    mode are the three most popular measures of central tendency in statistics.
    Each of these calculations uses a different approach to determine the
    position of the center point.

    Question 3:

    Answer: The nominal scale is a naming scale in which variables are simply
    "named" or labeled without regard to their order. Beyond only identifying the
    variables, the ordinal scale has them in a predefined sequence. Labels, order,
    and a set interval between each of the variable possibilities are all available on
    the Interval scale.

    Question 4:

    Answer: The total of a collection of data divided by the number of data is


    called the mean. When comparing diverse sets of data, the mean may be a
    useful tool; however, the impact of extreme numbers can make this strategy
    ineffective. The value that appears the most is known as a mode.
    Question 5:

    Answer: When data points are presented in ascending order, the lower
    quartile, or first quartile (Q1), is the value beneath which 25% of data points
    are located. When data points are presented in ascending order, the upper
    quartile, or third quartile (Q3), is the value beneath which 75 percent of data
    points are located.

    Question 6:

    Answer: The fundamental difference between ANOVA and MANOVA is that


    ANOVA is used to determine the mean when only one variable is available,
    whereas MANOVA is utilized when two or more variables are present.
    MANOVA stands for multivariate analysis variant, while ANOVA stands for
    analysis variant.

    Question 7:

    Answer: Multiple linear regression employs two or more independent factors


    to predict the result of the dependent variable Y, whereas simple linear
    regression uses one independent variable to explain or predict the outcome
    of the dependent variable Y. Finance and investment experts, as well as
    workers in other industries, can benefit from regression.

    Question 8:

    Answer: Graphs are a popular way of visualizing data connections. A graph's


    goal is to convey data that is too large or intricate to be fully expressed in
    words and in a limited amount of space. A graph should be utilized if the data
    demonstrates significant patterns or relationships between variables.

    Question 9:

    Answer:
    ● Bar Chart / Graph - A bar chart is a graph in which the data points in a
    collection of data are represented by spaced rectangular bars.
    ● Pie Chart - A pie chart is a circular graph that shows numerical
    proportions within a dataset.
    ● Line Graph or Chart - A line graph is made up of a set of data points
    connected by a straight line.
    ● Histogram Chart - The frequency of discrete and continuous data in a
    dataset is shown using linked rectangular bars in a histogram display.
    ● Area chart - By coloring the region between the line segment and the
    x-axis, area charts may be used to collectively measure data trends over
    time.
    ● Dot Graph or Plot - A dot plot is a graph with data points represented
    vertically by dot-like markers.
    ● Scatter Plot - Scatter plots are graphs that employ dot-like markers to
    represent each data point to display random variables.
    ● Bubble Chart - The number of variables in the dataset, the sort of data it
    visualizes, and the number of dimensions the graph has are all used to
    split bubble charts into separate segments.

    Question 10:

    Answer:
    ● Descriptive Analytics - The most basic level of analytics is descriptive
    (also known as observation and reporting). Organizations frequently
    find themselves spending the majority of their time at this level.
    Consider dashboards and why they exist: to create reports and show
    data from the past.
    ● Diagnostic Analytics - Diagnostic analytics is where we get to the root
    of the problem. We go beyond a simple observation (such as whether
    the chart is moving up or down) to the "what" is causing it to happen.
    The capacity to ask questions about data and link those inquiries to
    objectives and business imperatives is critical at this point.
    ● Predictive Analytics - Machine learning, algorithms, and artificial
    intelligence are all used in predictive analytics, which gives it its power
    since data science is included. Now, enterprises can truly experience
    success with their data and analytical strategies when we embrace the
    significance of not just forecasting, but also applying data science,
    statistics, and the third level of analytics in conjunction with the
    previous two levels.
    ● Prescriptive Analytics - Prescriptive analytics is the most effective and
    last step of analytics because it fully incorporates the "why" of analytics.
    It's when the data itself tells you what you should do. Even though
    predictive and prescriptive analytics is the most advanced, they are
    most strongly associated with data-driven decision-making.

    Question 11:

    Answer: Gathering all of the data, analyzing it, studying it, and utilizing it to
    identify patterns and other insights is what the data analysis process, or data
    analysis processes, entails.

    Question 1:

    Answer: Qualitative research is a type of naturalistic inquiry that aims to learn


    more about social phenomena in their natural environment. It focuses on the
    "why" of social phenomena rather than the "what," and it is based on people's
    actual experiences as meaning-makers in their daily lives.

    Question 2:

    Answer: Grounded theory, ethnography, action research, phenomenological


    research, and narrative research are all common methodologies. They have
    certain similarities, but their goals and attitudes are quite different.

    Question 3:

    Answer: Quantitative research is concerned with numbers and figures,


    whereas qualitative research is concerned with words and their
    interpretations. Quantitative approaches allow you to measure variables and
    test hypotheses in a systematic way. Qualitative approaches allow you to
    delve deeper into ideas and experiences.
    Question 4:

    Answer: Qualitative research is a type of investigation that examines


    information communicated in natural situations through language and
    action. It is used to collect expressive information about ideas, values,
    sentiments, and motives that underpin behaviors that are not expressed in
    quantitative data.

    Question 5:

    Answer: The discovery, study, and interpretation of patterns and themes in


    textual data, as well as how these patterns and themes assist answer the
    research questions at hand, are all part of qualitative data analysis. As the
    study progresses and new data becomes available, it is likely to change and
    adapt.

    Question 6:

    Answer:
    ● Prepare and organize your data. Print your transcript, gather your notes,
    document, or other materials.
    ● Review and explore the data
    ● Create initial codes
    ● Review those codes and revise or combine them into themes
    ● Present themes in a cohesive manner

    Question 7:

    Answer: While qualitative research has a variety of methodologies, they


    always focus on keeping rich meaning when evaluating data. Grounded
    theory, ethnography, action research, phenomenological research, and
    narrative research are all common methodologies.

    Question 8:

    Answer: In qualitative research, reliability refers to the consistency of replies to


    different coders of data sets. It can be improved by taking thorough field
    notes, recording devices, and transcribing digital data. When selecting
    whether to employ qualitative or quantitative data, a good rule of thumb is to
    use quantitative research to confirm or verify something (a theory or
    hypothesis), and qualitative research to comprehend something (concepts,
    thoughts, experiences).

    Question 9:

    Answer: Anonymity, confidentiality, and informed consent are three crucial


    ethical considerations to keep in mind when doing qualitative research. The
    term 'confidentiality,' according to Richards and Schwartz, has varied
    implications for health care practitioners and researchers.

    Question 10:

    Answer: Confidentiality and the researcher's function as a data-gathering tool


    are two ethical difficulties in qualitative research. At all phases of our study,
    we must ensure that the project population is kept confidential. This extends
    beyond obtaining informed permission from study participants.
