  • The characteristic features of Experimental research are the following: 
    • A purpose statement is a declarative statement that highlights the major goal or goals of a research study.
    • The goal of a study or research endeavor is to answer research questions on the topic.
    • A hypothesis is a statement that expresses expectations for the results of research.
    • After developing a hypothesis then collect numeric data. 
  • In short, developing clear, restricted, measurable, and observable purpose statements, research questions and hypotheses are characteristic features of experimental research.
