Types of Research Methodologies

The video tutorial introduces the types of research, emphasizing the importance of understanding them. It categorizes research into four main types: based on application, objectives, theory extension, and time dimension. Each type is further divided into subtypes, such as pure and applied research under application, and exploratory, descriptive, and causal under objectives. The tutorial also explains theoretical and empirical research under theory extension, and cross-sectional and longitudinal research under time dimension. The video concludes with a call to action for students to subscribe and share the content.
