What are the common differences between Academic Research and Applied Research?
Academic Research is a systematic inquiry into a particular issue or condition. It's a matter of finding and evaluating an alternative viewpoint that may help resolve the issue. Additionally, the study aims to uncover the facts and causes of a particular issue aboard, promoting societal progress (Pattaro, 2016). At our university, for example, academics are responsible for doing research, which is the primary component of their profession. However, applied research is focused on applying scientific knowledge to a real-world situation (Pattaro, 2016). Everything from work to health to life in general may be solved with this application. The purpose of applied research is to develop a solution that can be used in the real world to solve a common issue (Pattaro, 2016). Applied research is distinguished because it is conducted in a private setting without disclosing the results; medical research is a prime example of this.
When is it most appropriate to use Academic Research (also known as Scholarly Research)?
There are times when academic research is more suitable. In order to prevent being accused of plagiarism, it is polite to credit the original source of any material taken from an academic paper. In citing, you acknowledge that the work is not your own but rather the product of someone else (Mohammadbeigi et al., 2015). It is ideal for academics who need to speed up their work on a specific discovery. For example, consider a researcher interested in studying children's cognitive abilities. The researchers will not follow youngsters around in search of data. Therefore, to acquire this data, they will turn to reputable academic sources. Academic research is best used when researchers are trying to figure out why a particular event occurred or how to expand their knowledge throughout their studies (Hair et al., 2014). The most often used instrument in universities for rigorous academic research is PLS-SEM (Hair et al., 2014). It is a learning tool; thus, it may help someone gain new skills and information.
When is it most appropriate to use Applied Research (also known as Professional Research)?
It is best to do applied research if a member needs to learn something specific that impacts individuals in everyday life. Customers and product solutions may be better understood via applied research in business. Customer service and market dynamics are key considerations when developing a product solution (Mohammadbeigi et al., 2015). Knowledge of everyday life is enriched as a result of the solution findings. For example, understanding client preferences may assist businesses in devising a plan that increases their market share while also increasing profitability (Mohammadbeigi et al., 2015). Expertise and solutions may be found in a wide range of topics via applied research. Thus, its use is restricted to a specific region. Within the space of a single sentence, it delves deep into a concept uniquely its own.
What style of research interests you and why?
Professional research piques my attention since it focuses on a single issue. First, the source material is well-known, as is the location where it may be retrieved. The second reason is that professional research is trustworthy and provides us with new information on a specific societal issue that we can use in our everyday lives. Analytical abilities are frequently praised in research, and applied research helps researchers develop critical thinking (Mohammadbeigi et al., 2015). As a third benefit, since applied research tackles a real-world issue, it fosters collaboration among experts from other disciplines. When seeking knowledge, the Bible states in Matthew 7.7, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you” (New International Version).
