Outline the basic steps for the scientific methods. Identify which steps are inductive and which steps are deductive.
- Make a chart to contrast qualitative and quantitative research methodologies.
- What do quantitative and qualitative research studies have in common?
- If you were to submit an article for publication in Nature (considered to be a prestigious journal by the scientific community), outline the basic steps of the peer-review process (use the image of the peer-review process as a guide). Based upon the prestige of Nature, do you think it is easy or difficult to be published in this journal? Why?
- The peer-review process is an effective way to ensure that only good quality research that adds to the body of scientific knowledge is published. However, it is not a perfect process. Give an example of when the peer review process was subverted.
