Improving Research For Online Publication

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.

Observing to Record Behaviors and for Administration/Management

Tres Mali Scott

When documenting observed behavior is apart of a research, a therapy session,  an intake, or an assessment, what is considered a "baseline behavior" is the most common, consist, or repeated behavior. "Baseline behaviors" are used when assessing an individuals behaviors, they are considered how a person, animal, or other subjects (plants, for example) responses even in different situations. "Baseline behaviors" could also be considered depositional responses.

Baselining is also used in administration and management as a way to assess the strengths of an employee or trainee. An example is if one person writes better than another or another communicates better than another, than these baseline behaviors of the employee would be used to delegate responsibilities that causes success to the department, company, organization, etc.
