1.1.

2 Research Methods versus Methodology:


Research methods include all those techniques/methods that are adopted
for conducting research. Thus, research techniques or methods are the methods
that the researchers adopt for conducting the research studies.
On the other hand, research methodology is the way in which research
problems are solved systematically. It is a science of studying how research is
conducted scientifically. Under it, the researcher acquaints himself/herself with
the various steps generally adopted to study a research problem, along with the
underlying logic behind them. Hence, it is not only important for the researcher
to know the research techniques/methods, but also the scientific approach called
methodology.
