Introduction to Research, the big questions? ... why, how, what .. ? – The research intent.
Dr. Manoj Joshi
Professor Strategy and Entrepreneurship
Director Centre for VUCA Studies
Amity University, Lucknow Campus
Session Moderator: Dr.Shalini Saxena, Associate Professor, Amity Institute of Social Sciences, AUUP
Dr. Shalini Saxena introduced Dr. Manoj Joshi. Dr.Joshi spoke about the What and How of Research? He did so by initially showing two pictures with the first one being one of which balloon can fly higher and the second one being that of a market place in a hilly area. He posed some queries with regards to both the pictures and reiterated that query is the bread & butter of research. Query consists of What? (Subject) How? (Process) When? (Time) Why? (Reason) Which? (Selection) Where? (Place). In research “What” is the principle question ? In research everybody needs to be an explorer and observer. Research came into existence due to astronomy and archaeology. Disasters and research perspective are a growing field too. Science teaches the power of curiosity.
The current pandemic situation has changed the world from being a closed world to an open world in terms of learning. Dr. Manoj Joshi also emphasized on the importance in clause mechanism in the field of research. He also emphasized on Ontology which is the study of the first principles/essence of things and is borrowed from metaphysics; Epistemology is the study of knowledge and justified belief; Antecedent looks into the background; Taxonomy is also important as its emphasis on classification. Causality talks about cause and effect. Empiricism, Etymology and Casualism.Dr. Manoj Joshi talked about the importance of Hypothesis in Qualitative research. He talked about the characteristic of Qualitative Hypothesis and about Propositions which talks about the relation between existing concepts and thus serves an important role in the scientific process. Dr. Manoj Joshi also talked about thinking and beliefs in the field of research, what is inside a researcher matters a lot. At the end of his presentation, he emphasized on the platform revolution that is taking place. At the very end, Sr. Manoj Joshi stressed on being a constant learner and always Learn and unlearn.
The talk was interactive as many of the attendees asked a lot of questions which were answered patiently and in depth by Dr. Manoj Joshi.
FDP Day 1: 2:30 PM-3:30 PM
Data Collection & Statistical Analysis in Social Science Research
Prof. Sanjeev Bansal
Dean FMS & Director,
ABS, AUUP
Session Moderator: Dr. Shalini Saxena, Associate Professor, Amity Institute of Social Sciences, AUUP
After being introduced by the session moderator, Prof. Sanjeev Bansal spoke of himself being a Teacher and a Researcher. He stressed on the fact that there is no proper definition for the term “Research”. Research is a never-ending and continuous journey one has to undertake. The most important aspect of research is identification of objective after rigorous review of literature. Then comes planning of the research which is also known as Research Methodology. There are two types of methodology: pure and mixed approach. Nowadays research has become more flexible. Data can be acquired by online and simply clicking on a link. After methodology, comes data collection.Research is mainly carried out in order to extend existing research or contradict it. Methods of collecting data is of qualitative and quantitative types. He talked about primary and Secondary sources of data. Most important aspect of data collection is choosing the right sample and right kind of sampling method.
FDP Day 1: 3:30 PM-4:30 PM
Utilizing Scopus and Web of Science for Social Science Research
Dr. R.S. Rai
Director, RPSS, AUUP
Session Moderator: Dr. Jyotika Teckchandani, Assistant Professor-I, Amity Institute of Social Sciences, AUUP
The Session moderator introduced the speaker. Dr. RS Raimainly talked about how to access and utilize Scopus, Web of Science and Mendeley in research. He also explained the meaning and uses of H-index, Bibliometric, Impact factor, Eigen factor, Article Influence Score, i-10 matrices etc.
He explained that Web of Science and Scopus are indexing database, which also measures research impact. Scopus is wider database than Web of Science. In order to access these both one may need institution access. One can access Scopus from scopus.com and Web of Science from webofknowledge.com. He also explained about the uses of ORCID and Kopernio.
He also explained various journal and author matrices, e.g. Bibliometric can be seen as quick and easy ranking of research impact. It is based on citation, but it ignores negative citation. Impact Factor measures the average number of citations per paper. Article Influence Score (AIS)is a journal specific Eigen factor score. Impact Factor is journal level matrices and AIS is individual level matrices.
He talked about how to utilize Mendeley in research. One can utilize Mendeley by Mendeley desktop or Mendeley Reference Manager. It helps in citing while writing and annotating while writing. With the help of Mendeley we can import references easily. He explained how to use M- plugin and save articles in Mendeley library.

Crafting an abstract based on Scientific approach, Components of research, Thesis Writing
Dr. Manoj Joshi
Professor Strategy & Entrepreneurship,
Director Centre for VUCA Studies,
Amity University, Lucknow Campus
Session Moderator: Dr. Shalini Saxena, Associate Professor, Amity Institute of Social Sciences, AUUP
After being introduced by the session moderator, Dr. Manoj Joshi discussed as to how one should write an abstract based on scientific principles. Through two enlightening quotes he suggested research is about developing a deeper understanding on an enquiry and to think what nobody has thought. Before delving into detailed elaborations, he highlighted that research is about having a free inquisitive mind and observing things so as to think and imagine beyond boundaries. He provided a deeper understanding on developing the craft of writing abstract, and conducting an all-inclusive research. It could be useful for scholars for writing articles from the point of view of publication in multi-disciplinary areas. He made participants understand the meaning and dimensions of research, acquire skills for writing a scientific abstract, synthesize and apply knowledge for writing research papers, identify journals for collaborative research publications.
Dr. Manoj Joshi highlighted certain preliminary concerns that play an important role at all times and are“hounding/complex” processes that are there on a researcher’s mind. It largely starts from the question of observation and location of problem as well as determining the subjects who are facing the problem. It then moves down to identification of the nature of problem, identifying research objectives and questions, choosing an appropriate methodology, selecting methods and techniques of data collections and identifying the researcher’s role and position in research.The next issue addressed issue was the issue of understanding the research problem by locating the actual problem being faced by the subjects which attracts the researcher’s attention. One should try and establish a connection between the subject’s problem and one’s understanding of the problem. Defining the research problem area and understanding the kind of data that is required is also an important task.
Before starting any research, the researcher must take note of few things such as: identifying and defining the problem; determining the research objectives and questions on the basis of one’s aim; and taking note of limitations and constraints like time, money, access, etc.In order to ensure that your proposed research is presented well, one must explain the purpose of research, questions that one wants to find answers for, it’s importance and how one’s research would respond to and address the aimed objectives and questions.In order to check if your problem definition is well drafted, one must check the following: Is there a logical argument for the research goal; does the problem definition completely address and define the problem of the subject; is the research design appropriate to address the problem; is the research feasible; is it a well-founded research in terms of preliminary inquiry.It was also highlighted that a good research is one where the knowledge outcome of the research has some utility and function such that it can be useful for others as well. Research Intentions also play an important role as to what provokes one to take up a research (triggering effect); what was the nature of the problem observed that needs inquiry and its extent of contribution to knowledge. Research may be aimed at various objects such as to: categorize, describe, evaluate, compare, correlate, explain, predict outcomes and future behaviors, suggest ways to control a situation, etc.
Framing Title is yet another important aspect where a number of aspects are to be looked into. There may be problem choosing words, setting a word limit for a title (which is not necessarily fixed and prescribed), central themes, unit of assessment (degrees, percentage, weight, etc.), expressions like: knowledge/ comprehension/ application/ analysis/ synthesis/ assessment, etc.An important aspect discussed was the concept of “Bloom’s taxonomy” which explains the different kinds of expressions used such as:
The next important discussion related to the Components of an Abstract and the keywords. An abstract must have a purpose, what kind of approach/methodology is used, findings, research, imitations and implications, etc. (while using blooms taxonomy as far as possible). Keywords may also be scientifically chosen depending upon the research title, area covered, the expressions most commonly used, etc. He explained the relevance of both with the help of an example from “Human Resource Management and character Building: Route to Business Sustainability” which explained the issue, the problem being inquires, the methodology, limitations, the goal of research as well as the layout of the paper. He explained it further through four more examples of abstracts and keywords. Towards the end, Dr. Manoj Joshi suggested that the Observations, perception and curiosity are certain attributes that guide research. He explained the same through illustrations on rural life, technological growth, digital economy, social perceptions, poverty, etc.
All the resource persons answered the questions posed by the participants and moderated by the Session moderators.
