How to Design a New and Original Research Model

– Properly identifying research gaps is crucial for producing valuable and publishable research. – Failure to identify gaps can result in a research paper lacking significance for quality journals.

Why identify the gaps?

Utilize top-ranked databases such as Emerald, Sage, Springer, ScienceDirect, Wiley, and Taylor & Francis for the latest and high-quality research papers.

Sources for identifying research gaps

Explicit gaps are directly stated in papers in the limitations and future research directions, while implicit gaps require observation and inference from existing research.

Explicit & Implicit Research gaps

– Documenting your literature review process helps avoid unproductive searches and guides future research. – Essential for systematic literature reviews to justify search processes and strategies.

DOCUMENT WHATS YOU ARE READING

– Explore recommendations from existing studies to identify potential variables. – Implement suggestions for future research provided by authors in various papers.

All Work Should Be Play

Utilize Recommendations from Existing Studies

– Propose a new model by synthesizing information from multiple papers. – Add new variables and relationships to strengthen your research.
