A research paradigm is a model or method to study that has been confirmed and performed for a long time and is considered the standard by a large number of researchers on the subject.

Key Points

Terms  Descriptions
Empiricism
  • Empiricism is a philosophical notion that your understanding of the world is dependent on your experiences. 
  • According to empiricists, valid knowledge is based on observations and perceptions which only gained through sense organs.
  • Ideas and hypotheses must be observed and evaluated to be regarded as accurate. 
Indicator
  • In quantitative research, an indicator is used to offer a measure of a notion.
  • An indication is a variable's observed value.
  • An indication is a measured and observable object that helps to define a notion in a practical manner.
  • For example, an intelligence test is used to determine intelligence.
Deduction
  • Developing a hypothesis based on existing theory, and then constructing a research method to test the hypothesis. 
  • If a theory or a case example appears to imply a causal relationship or link. 
  • A deductive design may be used to evaluate if the relationship or link held true under more broad conditions. 
Abduction
  • Abduction is a term used in research to describe an inferential creative process for developing new hypotheses and ideas based on unexpected research results.
  • A researcher has led away from old theories and toward new ones.

Therefore, the correct match is A-II, B ‐ IV, C ‐ I, and D ‐ III.

Related Questions

The question given below consists of a statement, followed by three arguments I, II and III. You have to decide which of the arguments is/are ‘strong’ arguments is/are ‘weak’ arguments and accordingly choose your answer from the alternatives given below each question. Statement: For users, Facebook's revelation of a data breach that gave attackers access to 50 million accounts raises an important question: What happens next? For the owners of the affected accounts, and of another 40 million that Facebook considered at risk, the first order of business may be a simple one: sign back into the app. Facebook logged everyone out of all 90 million accounts in order to reset digital keys the hackers had stolen - keys normally used to keep users logged in, but which could also give outsiders full control of the compromised accounts.  Which of the following points do not capture the negligence of Facebook in the most appropriate manner? Arguments: I. What Facebook knows so far is that hackers got access to the 50 million accounts by exploiting three distinct bugs in Facebook's code that allowed them to steal those digital keys, technically known as ‘access tokens’. The company says it has fixed the bugs.  II. The hack is the latest setback for Facebook during a tumultuous year of security problems and privacy issues . So far, though, none of these issues have significantly shaken the confidence of the company's 2 billion global users.  III. One of the bugs was more than a year old and affected how the ‘View As’ feature interacted with Facebook's video uploading feature for posting ‘happy birthday’ messages. But it wasn't until mid-September that Facebook noticed an uptick in unusual activity, and not until this week that it learned of the attack.
