This Topic is endorsed by TMSC Consulting SVCS, LLC Management & Leadership Division by Tres Mali Scott, Who's Who of Professionals in Management since 2000 How can research improve for online publication? Three Online Research Keys include:

1. Your Own Original Researched Work,
2. Real Data You Manipulate Yourself, and
3. Wording That Your Audience Can Understand.

Research is a systematic and scientific investigation that includes methods of collecting, analyzing and reporting data to increase our understanding of a research subject, topic, or phenomenon. The "Introduction" of a research article is considered researched information and should be your "own original work". The Materials & Methods, Results, and Discussion sections of the research article contain real data that has been manipulated and is being reported. A general list of sections of a research article include:

• Title Page
• Abstract
• Introduction
• Materials & Methods
• Results
• Discussion
• Literature Cited

The third Key for online research publication is " Wording that your audience can understand":

• Who is your audience?
• Can they understand what the article subject is?
• Can they understand the background information of the article (Introduction)?
• Can they understand what materials you used and the method you used?
• Can they interpret and understand the results?
• Can they understand the discussion?

Each audience may be different, meaning who the article is worded to for understanding. For example: An article written for Medical Doctors as an audience is not worded, formatted or presented the same as an article written for High School Students. Research Methods include: The Goal:

1. Exploratory Research-structures and identifies new problems.
2. Constructive Research-develops solutions to a problem.
3. Empirical Research-test the feasibility.

The Type:

1. Primary Research-a collection of data that does not yet exist.
2. Secondary Research-a summary , collation and/or synthesis of existing research.

The Social Sciences:

1. Qualitative Research- understanding human behavior.
2. Quantitative Research-systematic empirical research.
