Methods in Scientific Research & A Guide to Writing an Excellent Paper

By Prof George K. Toworfe

This book outlines how to conduct a scientific research and how to publish your research findings in any scientific journal or write your research report. Tons of scientific data remain unpublished and are left on the shelves of supervisors and in archives in university libraries across the world. The reason is most researchers either lack the courage to publish their data, or do not know how to publish. Failure to publish research data deprives the scientific community of valuable data that could be vital for scientific advancement. Unpublished data may be the missing link in a global quest on a particular scientific phenomenon or intervention. In "Methods in Scientific Research", Prof. George K. Toworfe put together very simplified and useful information for students at undergraduate and postgraduate levels on how to conduct any type of scientific research and be able to write a scientific paper and or a research report. The chapters in the book discuss how any scientific study can be conducted up to the point where the research data obtained is documented. Its contents comprise the following: * Introduction to Research Methods * Stages in the Research Process * Literature Review and the Research Problem * Research Variables and Hypothesis* Conceptualising a Research Design * Writing a Research Proposal * Collecting, Processing and Analysing Research Data* Ethical Issues in Data Collection* Displaying Research Data* Writing a Research Report The last chapter - How to write an Excellent Research Paper - discusses in simple but detailed fashion how to write and publish an excellent research paper in any international renowned scientific journal.
