Definition and Purposes of Research
1. Is scientific research just gathering information without a clear goal?
2. Is scientific research gathering and recording information about a particular phenomenon
without interpreting this information?
Definition and Purposes of Research
‫« عمل فكري منظم يقوم به شخص مدرب وهو الباحث من أجل جمع الحقائق وتنظيمها وتفسيرها وربطها بالنظريات‬
)2012( ‫والحقائق بهدف التوصل إلى حل مشكلة أو لإلضافة إلى المعرفة في حقل من حقول المعرفة» حافظ‬
“A systematic and organized effort to investigate a specific problem that needs to be solved.
Hence, the scientific research process is a set of methodological steps that are designed and
followed with a clear goal, which is to reach answers to some questions about topics of
interest to us” Sekaran and Bougie (2010)
Definition and Purposes of Research
Finally, the scientific research must include:

A clear objective of scientific research.

Scientific data collection.

Scientific analysis and interpretation of data.

Handling a specific problem.
Definition and Purposes of Research
Fields of scientific research in administrative sciences:

It can be said that the general concept of scientific research in administrative sciences
does not depart from the general context of the concept of scientific research, but the
fields of scientific research and its methods, and curricula differ from one science to
another because the nature of phenomena is different.

The field of research interest in the field of management and business is focused on
collecting accurate data that helps in the decision-making process and reduces its risks.
Definition and Purposes of Research
Fields of scientific research in administrative sciences:
– According to Saunders, the concept of research in the field of management sciences is
«organized investigation to discover the truth of things related to management and
business.»
– The concept of research in the administrative sciences, according to Sekaran and Bougie, is
«sequentially regular steps based on data collected about a specific problem and subjected to
examination and scrutiny to solve this problem».
Definition and Purposes of Research
– The production, financing, marketing, and management operations of organizations aiming
to profit or reduce costs.
– Non-profit organizations that seek to satisfy a general need and, therefore, need
management skills to produce and provide services that meet the needs of the people.
Research in administrative sciences focuses on the applied aspect and the solution of
administrative problems in addition to the cognitive element of administrative phenomena.
Scientific Research
Scientific research can be divided in terms of the field into three main types
1. Exploratory Research
2. Basic or Fundamental Research
3. Applied Research

Description
Description
1. Description represents efforts exerted to give a pictorial account of the phenomenon being
studied. It is the first step in research since it provides the basis for further exploration of the
phenomenon under consideration.
2. In the description, the researcher attempts to find answers to the questions “what,” “who,”
and “where?”
Interpretation
1. In interpretation, the researcher is interested in exploring the reasons or causes of certain
behavior or event occurrence.
2. It involves understanding the cause–and–effect relationship between phenomena. Attempts
have been made to answer the question “why?”
Prediction
1.
In research, generalization is made to explain the past and predict what will happen in the
future.
2.
A widely based conceptual framework or theory will be used to predict the variable of
interest.
Validation
1.
Validation means that the researcher conducts his study on a topic previously studied by
another researcher with a difference in the sample, application environment, method used,
or period.
Control
1.
Researchers are also interested in influencing or changing a particular event or condition for
different purposes. Therefore, the description, interpretation, and prediction of events
resulting from any research undertaking are not casual or without aim.
2.
It is to explore and allow control possibilities – to intervene and observe an expected result.

Goals of Scientific Research
The importance of scientific research in the fields of administrative sciences stems from
several elements that can be summarized as follows:
– Assisting decision-makers in administrative institutions
– Strengthening the competitive capabilities of business organizations
Goals of Scientific Research
– Keeping track of the rapid developments in production methods
– Analyze problems and identify their causes
– Predicting the course of events in the future
– Reaching the optimum production mix
Scientific Research Difficulties
Scientific research in administrative sciences faces multiple problems and difficulties that
may affect results. The most critical problems and challenges facing researchers in the field
of administrative sciences can be explained in the following points:
Scientific Research Difficulties
1. Administrative phenomena are characterized by complexity due to their relationship
to human behavior, tendencies, and emotions, which makes obtaining highresolution data difficult in many cases and affects the accuracy of the results
obtained.
2.
It may not be accessible in some cases to choose a well-representative sample of
the study population that reflects all the characteristics of the study population,
which affects the generalizability of the study results.
Scientific Research Difficulties
3. In the case of research that is concerned with the attitudes of individuals and
customers, the personal attitudes of the respondents may affect their answers to
the questions raised, which may lead to the emergence of a problem of bias in the
data and thus negatively affect the results of the study.
4. Some managers intervene in the research process
5. Weak financial resources and resources for research
6. Absence or deficiencies of databases
Scientific Research Difficulties
7.
It is difficult to isolate the external variables from the phenomenon in question
(experimental research)
8.
The difficulty of replicating the experience in the field of empirical research in
administrative sciences
9.
Many administrative phenomena are not subject to a general theory
