Be Aware of the Limitations of Research to Unlock the Unknown

Four roadblocks that conceal the truth

Moreland (2006) highlighted the fallibility of all research projects. Blockers like personal bias, time, and financial constraints that play a role in a piece of research undertaken for assessment.

“Engineering is the art of modeling materials we do not wholly understand, into shapes we cannot precisely analyze so as to withstand forces we cannot properly assess, in such a way that the public has no reason to suspect the extent of our ignorance.”

— Dr. A. R. Dykes

This article discusses the four major limitations that hide the truth.

Research Sets Us Free

Theatrical, yes, but true. World-class researchers are highly skilled at parking their own biases and false beliefs for the benefit of humanity.

№1 — Bias

This appears in various forms, a tricky customer. For example, an interviewer and an interviewee can influence primary research due to their own biases.

Domegan and Fleming (2003) said that an interview is highly dependent on the interviewer’s perception of the topic and the interviewee's response.

Questionnaire construction — the design of a questionnaire — can negate or reflect an author's bias on a particular subject.

№2 — Time constraints

Time waits for non one. Period. Time constraints bring external forces to a piece of research, mitigating its optimum performance.

Qualitative research over a period of time generates exciting insights, unique results in any field. As such, topical researcher is therefore never-ending.

№3 — Financial constraints

Interviews, groups, and panels are costly. Industry experts suggest utilizing social contacts so research costs can be kept to a minimum. Although this can have an impact on “the level of bias” and findings (Saunders et al, 2003).

If money, as a constraint is removed, research is enriched. A more diverse range of interview candidates and indeed greater numbers bring a wider audience when finance is mitigated.

№4 — Research validity

Validity arises when research results are held up against initial questions, approaches, ethics, and objectives. The validity of any piece of research is always benchmarked against similar research.

To optimize validity, a piece of research must have clear goals, design, and account for what is being studied (Hedrick et al, 1993). It must seek full control of potential biases that may influence the outcome — results.

Pluralistic research incorporates qualitative and quantitative research methods within the design, known as triangulation. This approach seeks validity by incorporating results from external sources to the extent it's possible to generalize previous findings.

Final Thoughts

Research derives validity from the extent to which it legitimately generates a motive for future research.

Create unique data by opening avenues to the unknown.

Peel back the ‘onion’ folks. Uncover unknown dependencies to unlock and validate results … connect the dots!
