2. Please briefly describe what:
(i) Inductive research is in your own words, referencing sources used to inform your answer as appropriate.
Inductive research is when the final outcome of the research is a theory. The research usually starts with observing the social world – most commonly using qualitative research methods and the results of the research form the basis of the theory.
(ii) Deductive research is in your own words referencing sources used to inform your answer as appropriate.
Deductive research is when the research process starts with the use of a theory, and ends with a theory or hypothesis being accepted or rejected.
3. Using the
inductive research approach also called a bottom-up approach, the work proceeds on the basis of
Research can be defined as the search for knowledge, or as any systematic investigation, with an open mind, to establish novel facts, solve new or existing problems, prove new ideas, or develop new theories. Research can be divided into different steps in order to understand the whole process more in depth. The first step towards conducting research is to observe. Consistst of the subject area of ones interest and following that subject area to conduct subject related research. The subject area should not be randomly chosen since it requires reading a vast amount of
People in the United States are urged from day one that vaccinations are important for the well being of their children and for everyone that your child may come in contact with. Recently, childhood vaccinations have been stigmatized as a negative process. Parents have become increasingly concerned about the effects and side effects of vaccinations. The problem being, that the infectious diseases that are being prevented for, are being forgotten about. Vaccinations have been doing their job in protecting us for so long that the infectious diseases are less scary than vaccination process itself (Austvoll-Dahlgren & Helseth, 2012, p. 271). Vaccinations are a preventative measure and one that will continue to be implemented in children for their individual safety and for the safety of the public. However, it is still the families’ choice whether or not they want to proceed with the vaccination process or not. Most vaccinations are going to be administered by a registered nurse, therefore, it is the role of the nurse to supply information, and answer questions when counseling families through this process. The goal is to make people feel as comfortable and as informed as possible so that they can make a decision on whether to submit to the vaccination process or not.
e. explain how the research found in the database relates to your topic of interest. This may be an additional paragraph, perhaps two or three sentences.
Data collection methods- the researcher needs to pick how the information for this subject can be collected (observation, questionnaires, interviews) and so forth. Analysis and presentation of findings- the researcher needs to use reports and other information gathering it into one to present the hypothesis. Conclusion- what does the studies say about this topic, this is based on all the information that was gathered together to get the correct conclusion.
“In 2011 alone, 1.5 million children died [worldwide] from diseases preventable by currently recommended vaccines” (“Immunization” 2). The magnitude of this tragedy is in part caused by the fact that some of those children simply weren’t reached by organizations like UNICEF, which aim to vaccinate children (“Immunization” 2). However, there are other reasons for the recent deaths and epidemics—such as the whooping cough epidemic of 2012, with 48,000 cases nationally in the United States—involving vaccine preventable diseases (McClay 1).
As humans we have a tendency to make decisions before completely rationalizing them thoroughly. Through science we now know that our frontal lobe, which is responsible for motor function, problem solving, memory, judgment, impulse control and much more does not fully mature until our late twenties. The average age to start having children is in our early twenties, (25 years of age or younger) not to mention the teen parents. Throughout childbirth, one question that needs proper judgment and consideration to make is, whether to have their children vaccinated. One barrier that can affect parent when making solid decisions about childhood vaccinations is the scientific terminology doctor and other people use. For example, when comparing the word vaccination to immunization sometimes people will use the terms interchangeably not realizing that they have two distant meanings. Vaccination is just that, a vaccine that that is administered to develop immunity, or immunization, to a specific disease. Childhood vaccinations are a crucial part to the development of children and their health, despite the barriers that are present. By introducing research to the community regarding possible risk factor, myths that are commonly associated with childhood vaccinations, and possible laws, the goal is to help people understand why all children should be vaccinated.
Define and explain research and define and explain the scientific method (include an explanation of all five steps). Proper
The vaccination of children is a common practice in the United States. It has helped prevent the spread of infectious diseases that has plagued our society since the dawn of time. Since the decline of those infectious diseases, the United States and other countries have gone to what is called “herd immunity,” which is a mandatory vaccination of a majority of children to protect the mass population from contracting those easily communicable diseases (Orenstein & Yang, 2015). However, as of late the numbers of unvaccinated children are going up. Why is this happening? Why are so many parents choosing not to vaccinate their children? To answer those questions one must look at the reason why childhood vaccinations are required and why people choose to have their children vaccinated. Many parents believe some vaccinations help build their children’s immune system, but for other parents vaccinations are looked at as a risk to their children’s health and well-being. Many studies have been conducted to compile information to quantify the need for mass vaccinations, but childhood vaccinations have become so common in today’s society, that it’s hard to find a large percentage of unvaccinated children to gather a significant amount of data from. This is because the groups of unvaccinated children are too small and wide spread to consistently provide relevant data. This has led to a very controversial debate between parents, medical professionals and government officials about
Deductive arguments claim that their conclusions necessarily follow from their premises. Some commonly used words and phrases in deductive arguments are certainly, absolutely, definitely, conclusively, must be, and it necessarily follows that.
Why do we have vaccinations? Is it so that vaccinations help people not get diseases and can help people get over what they have? Vaccinations are a good thing to have so that it helps to stop a virus and not get other people around you sick. Many people believe that vaccinations are good things to get.
For those interested in the world-wide dispute of the correlation between the MMR vaccine and Autism, it would be equitable to allow the performance of the vaccination upon children. Autism is a mental condition, which is present from early childhood and is characterized by difficulty in communicating and forming relationships with other people and in using language and abstract concepts. According to the U.S Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Autism statistics ranges from 1 in 68 American children as on the autism spectrum. The MMR vaccine is an immunization vaccine against measles, mumps and rubella. It is administered through a subcutaneous injection, commonly into the outer aspect of the upper arm. The recommended age for primary

On another hand inductive research approach mainly work on different kinds of theories which are totally depend on the data collected from studies .Data is collected for the development of the information and theories are made on that information. It is also called as bottom up approach by which we can touch the top point by moving on the data collected from the respondents. By doing different between inductive and deductive research approach, in deductive approach, there is huge possibility of unexpected result which reduce or slow down the goodwill. Theories are already presents in deductive research approach which cannot be possible in case of inductive research approach.
