Globalisation is of great significance because in the process of globalisation there is a global interchange of customs and traditions and also a global flow of trade, capital & labour.

Research question.

A research question is the question that the research project sets out to answer.

In actual fact, a research study may set out to answer several questions.

The methodology used for that study, and the tools used to conduct the research, all depend upon the research questions being asked.

For example, in the example of a qualitative research study, the following two research questions that underpin the study, and also needed to be answered by the study, are shown in the box below.

There are two research questions that will need to be answered by this phase of the research. 

These are:

  • 'Are the perceived needs of the patients and users of South   Bedfordshire's palliative care services being met?'

  • 'If not, what needs to be done if these needs are to be met in the future?'

 

 

The first question can be answered by a quantitative study, whereas the second one may require a qualitative study to answer it.

Research questions can therefore be used in quantitative and qualitative research studies.

 

Hypothesis (plural = hypotheses)

A hypothesis is not a question, but rather it is a statement about the relationship between two or more variables.

So, for example, the first question above could become a hypothesis by making this a statement rather than a question, namely:

The perceived needs of the patient and users of South Bedfordshire's palliative care services are being met.

 

To be complete a hypothesis must include three components:  

  •  The <a href="http://www.health.herts.ac.uk/immunology/Web%20programme%20-%20Researchhealthprofessionals/variables.htm">variables</a>

  •  The <a href="http://www.health.herts.ac.uk/immunology/Web%20programme%20-%20Researchhealthprofessionals/populations.htm">population</a>

  •  The <a href="http://www.health.herts.ac.uk/immunology/Web%20programme%20-%20Researchhealthprofessionals/relationship.htm">relationship</a> between the variables

As you can see, the hypothesis translates the research question into a prediction of expected outcomes.

A hypothesis is the tool of quantitative studies, and is only found in such studies.

In fact, a hypothesis is usually only found in experimental quantitative research studies.

You will be able to find out more about hypothesese when we look at them in more detail later in the session.

 

Objectives

Sometimes, a research proposal will detail objectives.

  • Objectives are another way of detailing the purpose of a study.
  • They are set by the researcher to explain in detail what the study is expected to achieve

 

For example, Dealey (1991), cited by Parahoo (1997:125), carried out a survey to find out the size of the pressure sore problem in a teaching hospital and set the following objectives for the study:

  • To identify the numbers of patients with pressure sores

  • To identify the grade and position of the sores

  • To discover the treatments being used

  • To discover if the sores were improving, deteriorating or static

  • To discover when the sores had occurred, i.e. prior to admission or on the ward

  • To list any support systems in use

  • To identify the degree of risk of pressure sore development of all patients in the hospital

  • To identify any factors which are of particular relevance to tissue breakdown.

What do you think is missing from the above?

Well, Dealey still had to ask specific questions to meet the objectives.

Child labor is a situation where young children are employed to work on firms, homes, hotels, and firms. The practice is common in developing countries but is limited in developed nations where it is considered to be illegal and a violation of human rights. The history of child labor can be traced back to the Victorian era. During this period, children were forced to work in mines and factories. Child labor also played a critical role during the industrial revolution. In this case, children as young as five years were forced to work in manufacturing industries under poor working conditions.
The introduction of child rights and human rights into the constitution of most countries has slowly curbed child labor. In Britain, for instance, the Factory Acts demands that children not more than ten years should not be allowed to work.
Child labor is mainly contributed by poverty. Most parents send their children to work so that they can bring the much needed income. The practice is common in poor countries. Children are forced to work in sweatshops, factories, fields; mines match factories, and households. On the other hand, children may work as tourist guides and some are sexually abused by tourist. Such cases are common in places like Kelala and Goa.
In the current world, more than 200 million children work, most of them in full-time basis. Majority of these children do not attend school, and are given little time to play. Moreover, they do not get proper parental care or nutrition. More than 50% of these children work in drug trafficking, slavery, prostitution, as well as in armed conflict Child labor is unacceptable and a violation of children rights. Some developed countries boycott products or goods made by these children. Children should be allowed to enjoy their childhood and should not be allowed to work like adults. The practice is evil and should be banned by governments. A child should not be denied the right for education just because of poverty.

Peasant Movement in India is steeped in history and is pregnant with several rebellions that have taken place in numerous regions within the country. Peasant movement and Uprisings in India occurred mostly during the British rule, as the economic policies devastated traditional ways of livelihood, and resulted in seizure of land and increase in debt of the peasants and farmers. The exploitations of British colonialism were borne by the Indian peasants adversely. However the peasants stood their ground and fought against the British at every single step. There was a change in the resistance behavior of the peasants, because they started fighting for their demands and the unjust done to them. This behavior became more prominent and in action after 1858.
It is worth taking a look at the effects of colonial exploitation of the Indian peasants. Colonial economic policies, the new land revenue system, the colonial administrative and judicial systems and the ruin of the handicrafts leading to the over-crowding of land, transformed the agrarian structure leading to the over-crowding of land, transformed the agrarian structure and impoverished the peasantry. In the vast zamindari areas, the peasants were left to the tender mercies of the zamindars who rack-rented them and compelled them to pay the illegal dues and perform beggar. In Ryotwari areas , the government itself levied heavy land revenue. This forced the peasants to borrow money from moneylenders. Gradually, over large areas, the actual cultivators were reduced to the status of tenants-at-will, share-croppers and landless laborers, while their lands, crops and cattle passed into the hands of landlords, trader-moneylenders and rich peasants.

When the peasants could take it no longer, they resisted against the oppression and exploitation; and, they found whether their target was the indigenous exploiter or the colonial administration, that their real enemy, after the barriers were down, was the colonial state.
One form of elemental protest, especially when individuals and small groups found that collective action was not possible though their social condition was becoming intolerable, was to take to crime. Many dispossessed peasants took to robbery, decoity and what has been called social banditry, preferring these to starvation and social degradation
